To many people, pedals such as the Euphoria and Plexi-Drive projected Brian Wampler well on the way to be the king of dirt. This inspired him to take that crown and sit it on the head of distortion to finalise the deal.
Wampler took apart what is required for a great distortion and when they put all the parts back together, they discovered that not only was Brian the King of Dirt, but his new circuit was the King. The Sovereign.
The distortion available from the Sovereign is so versatile you will wonder how so much can be available from one small box. Two gain stages, a mid-contour, bright switch and tone control allow you to dial in virtually any sound from modern distortion all the way back to classic OD tones.
With the pedigree this pedal has, Wampler wanted to make sure it stands tall among the other heroes of dirt. Wampler think the Sovereign is the finest in its class, and with a versatility you won’t find on another pedal that sounds as organic as the Sovereign, you’ll agree that this truly is the Sovereign of distortion.
