Wampler Brent Mason Hot-Wired Overdrive/Distortion Pedal V.1 - USA 2012

Here is a Timmy-style “Hot Wired” signature overdrive and distortion pedal, designed in collaboration with legendary Nashville session guitarist Brent Mason, widely regarded as one of the most recorded guitarists in modern country music. Known for his incredibly versatile playing and tone shaping, Mason’s influence helped shape a pedal that delivers studio-quality drive sounds in a compact, performance-ready format.

This example features a true dual-channel architecture, combining independent overdrive and distortion circuits in one unit. The overdrive side ranges from subtle edge-of-breakup warmth through to dynamic, touch-sensitive crunch, while the distortion channel delivers thick, saturated gain with a smooth, full-frequency response. Both sides can be used independently or stacked together for a significantly larger, harmonically rich lead tone with extended sustain and depth.

The pedal is highly responsive to picking dynamics and guitar volume changes, making it suitable for a wide range of styles from clean country articulation through to modern rock drive textures. Its stacking capability gives it exceptional flexibility on stage or in the studio, effectively covering multiple gain stages in a single enclosure.

Condition is excellent with full functionality and only light signs of use. Comes complete in its original box (no power supply included). A powerful, professional-grade drive pedal offering exceptional tonal range and versatility, closely associated with one of Nashville’s most respected session players.
