This is the spirit of rock and roll. Quit turning knobs and play that guitar like you mean it. With a dirt sound this good, any one second spent bending down and fiddling with knobs is one second too much. This is why the Acapulco Gold has one gigantic knob; move the thing and it gets louder or quieter. While playing, don't forget to fiddle with your guitar's volume and tone knobs, these can drastically affect the sound of the Acapulco Gold. The volume knob, especially, cleans the pedal up pretty well; not completely, this ain't your daddy's Fuzz Face. At minimum guitar-volume settings, the Gold imparts a hazy Nashville-sounding spank to your tone. At just-barely-backed-off, the Gold turns into a raunchy overdrive. Of course, when the guitar's knob is fully on, the Gold roars like a Model T on the verge of explosion. It's not-quite-fuzz, but so close.

So, with the boost and the already amazing response you get from the volume pot and playing attack, there isn’t a lot of places this pedal can’t take you in regard to a M.I.A.B. tone! Brian has always taken care to tweak the bass boost switch, so it’s really feels effective – some say it’s a 2x12” to 4x12”, others say it’s “open back” and “closed back” - all I know is that it sounds great in both positions! We also added the Wampler classic bright boost switch, so if you are playing with an AC30 or a Peavey Classic, you can tweak the pedal to get the right sound according to your equipment\u003c\/p\u003e Features: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandbuilt in the U.S.A.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHigh grade film capacitors and resistors picked for their superior sound and response\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCompletely true bypass\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePower draw: 22mA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBattery connection and 9v power jack (barrel plug like Boss)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePre gain TS style boost for adding that lil' extra\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e3 band \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eactive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e EQ: Bass, middle and treble.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBass and bright boosts switchs for increased versatility\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3.5” x 4.5” x 1.5\" in size (88.9mm x 114.3mm x 38.1mm) - height excludes knobs and switches\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wampler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33923597729927,"sku":"WPPLEXIDRIVEDLX","price":239.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/wampler-effects-and-pedals-distortion-wampler-plexi-drive-deluxe-wpplexidrivedlx-28531442286727.jpg?v=1646615836"},{"product_id":"wren-and-cuff-tall-font-russian-fuzz-18238","title":"Wren and Cuff Tall Font Russian Fuzz","description":"\u003cp\u003eManufacturer's Description:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI've spent many hours digging for some slight difference between a vintage pedal I love and one I'm building for one reason or another to be sure I could truly nail the sound. I've had my employees flat out saying, \"Sorry man, I just can't hear a difference\", then giving me the, man, this guy is crazy look. Why I mention this is to say that after all the muff type pedals built under my belt, The Tall Font Russian was the toughest pedal to nail. Why did I choose the Tall Font S****K version to recreate? After a conversation via email with an acquaintance who plays in a very successful band this quest began.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of my favorite traits is a \"boxy\"quality to the sound that was the toughest thing to reproduce. Wish I had a better way to describe it, but \"boxy\" is what it is to my ears. It almost sounded right, but I couldn't get a certain growl I heard on the vintage pedal and the boxy thing still wasn't quite right..Finally, I tested the pots and found the actual vs. stated pot values were over 30% \"off\" in some cases. IMO this inconsistancy is partly responsible for one unit sounding particularly sweet and another sounding so, so. In other words, those absolutely crappy pots created a happy accident. After custom tweaking those pots, I realized that this was one of the things responsible for keeping the low-mid range from getting to mucky and is also a factor in the more over-drive type quality these Russians can produce. I found the growl! The kooky values found can't be purchased as such so we have to mod each pedal's pots ourselves to get the desired values. As far as I know, we're the only company that goes as far as to modify the pots for a S****k clone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis boxy-growl also helps make them particularly great on bass, and fantastic for raunchy, less friendly guitar tones ala The Black Keys, White Stripes, Mars Volta, and many others seeking a nasty F-You snarl (not saying the afore mentioned bands use these exact pedals, just using their tones as a reference). With many other desirable muffers (and our Tri Pie 70') the goal is warm, smooth and buttery, but the TFR has a different goal in mind. There is a growl and raunchy yet truly musical sound produced by these ugly green beasts. The lows have an overdrivey compression that keeps things tight, and the highs have a rich upper-harmonic thing going on thatÌÎå'll make one understand the affection some have for this pedal. The mids have the standard muff-scoop but it is not as pronounced as some of the other generations. Add to that a less gainy\/fuzzy tone overall and you end up with a unique muff with a character all its own.
