{"product_id":"wampler-belle-transparent-overdrive-pedal","title":"Wampler Belle Transparent Overdrive Pedal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe pedal that inspired this circuit has been around for a long time in various forms but most versions of it have too much of a “Hi Fi” sound about them, they fail to get the right mix of clarity and bass that is needed to make this overdrive sing. Brian has added further gain capabilities to this circuit, and added a bass control that controls all the harmonics from smooth and creamy to tight and crunchy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sound this circuit delivers is a firm favorite in Nashville and Brian Wampler’s take is everything you would expect it to be – high quality components, a beautiful enclosure, and a glorious tone.  If you set the gain low and the bass control up high, you get a wonderful clean boost sound that can rival any Klone circuit, but when you spin the bass down and the gain all the way up, you suddenly find yourself with an awesome transparent overdrive \/ medium distortion sound with all the crunch you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Color control is more than just a standard tone control and it’s pretty unique to this circuit. Dialling it right or left will either boost or cut the high and low end a little, but the midrange frequencies are left well alone.  Combine this with the Bass control and you have a very versatile tone shaping palette with Wampler’s legendary ease of use. Brian has also added a push switch on the side which will control the amount of compression and alter the clipping structure in the circuit for some extra punch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis pedal can add some serious muscle to your country, some extra grit to your blues, and some soaring boosts to rock – it’s such a flexible drive we know you are going to love stacking it with your favorite pedals as much as playing it straight through a clean amp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_7 et_pb_equal_columns et_pb_gutters1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column_8  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_2  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_dark\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShape your tone\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Color control is more than just a standard tone control and it’s pretty unique to this circuit.
