Wampler’s new “Collective” series of pedals, which are $99(!).
At that price I assumed Wampler was having these assembled overseas but all the ad copy says these are “Made in the USA” (which probably means BAD like the rest of their lineup?), so seemingly joining EQD and JHS in the “hundred dollar boutique pedals” game. I mean yeah at that price it’ll all be SMD and relatively low parts count, but that didn’t keep EQD’s Plumes from sounding pretty damn great.
I’m not terribly impressed by these demos (not bad but nothing special) but that’s how I usually feel about Sweetwater’s demos, not my style of riffage and not the sorts of tones I’d be trying to dial in.
