Drives & Fuzz
Inspired by Wampler Plexi Drive ™ Project overview: Simple, versatile, responsive are the best words to describe this circuit designed by Brian Wampler. This circuit will deliver all the feel and touch you’d need to recreate Eric Johnson delightful tunes.

The Warped Plexi is based on the three knob Version of Wampler’s Plexi Drive ™. Not only one of the Pedals that made Brian Wampler pedal brand famous, it also is one of the best sounding Marshall ™ in a Box pedals out there. I think there is no need to keep talking about the very British sounding tonal options of this Overdrive. There are plenty awesome demos about it on Youtube.

Project overview: Based on Wampler Sovereign, this circuit is a versatile beast, plenty of gain and full of harmonic overtones, always sounding organic and big. Surprisingly shapeable and responsive, the non-traditional gain and EQ controls allow you to tune the pedal to suit any setup, and instead of just emphasizing a certain frequency range, they actually change the texture of the gain. Beside the traditional Volume, Gain and Tone, this board features a very handy Contour control as well as two toggles on-board, Voice selects in between vintage and Modern, and a Boost switch to give your drive an extra push.

Based on Wampler's Velvet Fuzz The Voodoo Fuzz is a unique circuit that combines two different selectable fuzz tones and a Plexi amp emulation. The toggle selects between a LM386 (Tight) circuit, and a 2N5089 (Big) circuit. These then push a Plexi Drive circuit that gives the Marshall amp emulation, just like many of the masters of the fuzz tone have done through the years. The board has been laid out for through hole and SMD J201 (choose either of them). Trimmers to help bias the J201 JFETs had been included over the original layout.
