Wampler Triple Wreck v.s Wampler Pinnacle 2 v.s Ibanez Jemini v.s Ibanez Tube King

[Puddle Smasher]

Hey guys..I was just wondering which of these pedals would you get? I'm currently stuck in a dilemma but the wampler Pedals seem to just sound so much like an amp..and i'm so indecisive about this haha..please post your opinions on each pedal and vote for the one which you think sounds the best


oh shit sorry for the wrong spelling haha

I think they're all different beasts, and it really depends on what kind of sound you're aiming for. The Pinnacle is meant to emulate the brown sound aka the famous EVH tone.


The Triple Wreck is meant to emulate the triple rectifier, but IMO it does way more than that, it can even get the Lonestar tones if tweaked properly, very versatile pedal. If you crank up the mids, you'll be able to get a pretty brown sound also, so IMO this wins the Pinnacle in terms of versatility and sound.

The Jemini seems to sound like the modded DS-1s Vai used to use, nothing that fantastic IMO. Haven't heard the tube king, so can't comment on that.

the poll items are not of the same performance intensity, ie, not comparing apples with apples...

+1 to the Triple Wreck. Good stuff.

But like what sub said, youre comparing apples with oranges here, it really depends on what you are looking for.

The Jemini doesn't sound anything like the DS-1.....or modded for that matter.

I like the Pinnacle alot. It can get lots of variations of tones, but doesn't really do scooped metal tones well, i feel. Triple wreck is more suited for metal and is also very versatile, but can get really bassy and can sound dark. The 2 are actually quite different, really. Both reacts well to the guitar's volume knob. So, if you play mostly rock stuff, go for the Pinnacle.

Or you can try the newly released SLO-tortion.

Actually it all depends on your amp, diff pedal work well with diff amps. So far I'ved tried all of the pedals u mention, and I owned the wampler triple wreck. I did try this combination wampler triple wreck + matchless chieftain and it sounded really bad. So I guess u have to test on diff amps also those pedals u've mentioned
