ACE of TONE is a dual overdrive pedal stacked with Tubeman MKII and Morning Star.
Why? Because great guitarists love 2 overdrives to stack their tone.
In the left corner Tubeman with FAT mode. Tubeman offers way more clarity and
gain than any classic Tubescreamer, and we modified the circuit with a useful
secondary function by simply holding the foot switch~ FAT mode. It cranks way
more bass response to enhance the low-end yet makes the tone warmer!
In the right corner Morning Star with SHINE mode. Morning Star is based on
legendary Bluesbreaker circuit: very transparent, low gain drive. Like our
Morning Star, it also features a simple FOOT SWITCH HOLD to engage the iconic
SHINE mode. In SHINE mode, you can get way more treble sound to
make your tone crystal-clear.

It’s very useful to stack the sound.
Brad Paisley är ett riktigt tungviktarnamn i modern Country musik. Brad och Brian Wampler har genom åren haft en hel del sammarbeten som bland annat resulterat i en overdrivepedal som Brad tycker låter väldigt lik hans Trainwreck förstärkare
It's true, at a gig Brian once threw a modified pedal at the feet of Brad Paisley in the hope that he would pick it up and try it. Fortunately for us, and you, Brad’s tech picked it up, played it - digged it and gave it to Brad who took it away and LOVED it. From that point on, he has used and loved Wampler Pedals.
After a few years of using our pedals (Ego, Underdog and Faux AnalogEcho) Brad’s tech at the time, Chad, mentioned to Brian that Brad wasn’t 100% content with his tone and maybe we should all work together to make the perfect overdrive for Brad to record and tour with. His requirements were quite "simple"… it needs to be clean but get crunchy with some "beef" to it. It needs to have a fluid tone when soloing. It needs to add a little hair to the tone but then but then has to be able to give flat out ball busting gain, oh… but please do not wreck the tonality. It needs to have everything, in a pedal format, but do not make it sound like a pedal!
Over a period of months, Brian made some circuits and sent them off, there were a couple of "tweaks" here and there to be made and then finally, when official "prototype v2.0" landed, it went straight into the live rack and out on the 2010 "Brad Paisley: H20" world tour.
Brad Paisley:
"…we actually recorded this (pedal) in the studio, you know, trying it out. I turned up a Trainwreck Amp that I’ve got and compared the sound of the distortion and it was very, very similar. And that’s a very good test because any time a pedal can mimic a great overdriven amp then you’re on to something…"

En fantastisk overdrivepedal som också används flitigt av folk som behöver en bra treble-boost. Detta är en klon på en av de mest mytomspunna overdrivepedalen på marknaden.
There is one overdrive circuit to this day has been the most talked about, the most sought after, and the most mythical of them all. It’s big, it’s expensive, and it has certainly earned its place at the table. Wampler has painstakingly and faithfully reproduced that magical tone in all its glory in an unbelievably small package, and its name is Tumnus. Tumnus is a versatile addition to any setup, any style.
Stack it with another pedal to help push or shape the total amount of gain, use it as a stand alone overdrive, or use it as a slightly dirty boost to push the front end of your amp over the edge. You can even use it as a buffer, because just like the original this pedal is not true bypass. Instead, faithful to the original, this pedal contains a buffered bypass tone legendary in its own right. The Tumnus’ streamlined 3 control knobs (Volume, Gain, and Treble) allow you to quickly dial in your tones no matter what the gig calls for. We aren’t going to sit here and claim it has magical parts, or we sourced out 60 year old diodes that make it perfect, but we are going to say that during our research we looked at everything available and then only used the parts that Brian chose to replicate that amazing tone. Let’s face it, not everyone has room for a four-legged beast on their board. This smaller version slips in and out of a myriad of tight situations. Now you can have the tone. Now you can have history. Now you can have it all without having to sell your prized gear possessions. The Wampler Tumnus, standing up for that amazing tone, but without the outrageous claims often associated with it.
