The Wampler Phenom Distortion Pedal is a part of the Collective Series designed by Brian Wampler. It is a dual-voiced distortion pedal with switchable voicing modes, offering both bright and classic modes for added cut and aggression or smooth, robust distortion, respectively. The pedal features high-grade components selected for superior sound and response.
The pedal includes independent gain and volume controls, as well as a powerful 3-band EQ for precise tone shaping. It utilizes JFET-based clipping instead of Op-amp and Diode-based clipping, loosely based on the legendary "5150" style tones. The Phenom Distortion is known for its dynamic range, offering a variety of tones from deep, punchy rhythm sounds to ultra-responsive lead tones suitable for soaring solos and crisp harmonics.
