Wampler Golden Jubilee

Wampler · pedal

The Wampler Golden Jubilee is a dual-footswitch overdrive/distortion pedal pairing two distinct amp-inspired voicings: a Distortion channel modeled on the smooth, articulate punch of a MESA/Boogie Mark IIC+ style high-gain tone, and an Overdrive channel modeled on the saturated, muscular British crunch of a Marshall Silver Jubilee. Each channel has independent Level, Tone, and Gain controls plus its own Character switch (the OD channel's shifts gain range, the DS channel's shifts brightness), and a central Order switch lets players route the channels OD-into-DS or DS-into-OD for different stacked tones.

What stands out

  • “Primary use case is players wanting the flexibility to use either voicing independently or stack them together for layered, complex distortion tones”
