WAMPLER Euphoria


When Brian created the circuit that would eventually become the Euphoria, he was working on creating a pedal that would go from clean tones to distorted tones while adding a bit of warmth. He wanted something for himself that would be dynamic, have a great sounding “gritty” tone to it yet be able to respond to the volume knob like a tube amp. Everything about Brian is in the dynamics of sound and if a pedal can't work with him dynamically, then he just can't use it.

The Euphoria is his take on that elusive tone and feel made famous by Dumble Amplifiers - smooth creaminess yet crunchy when you need it to be, yet the tonality is much more transparent than other “dumble sounding" pedals. Very responsive tone controls that interact with the pedal - they don't just “color” the sound. The controls actually affect the response and feel of the pedal, just like a great tube amp.

If you love the sound of your clean tone, and just wish you could have more “hair” on the note... a little bit of grit without any change in tonality, the Euphoria will do that with ease. PLUS it's extremely flexible... with the toggle switch in the down position you'll get a hint of fuzz along with the overdrive, it's reminiscent of the tones that "Eric Johnson" may use. With the toggle in the up position the tonality is super smooth, creamy yet crunchy when you dig into the strings.

This is reminiscent to the famous “Dumble” tone, though it's really much, much more than that. In the center position, the toggle will give you tons of crunch, or roll the gain back a bit and push the volume up and you have a superior clean boost with a 2 band EQ that's extremely transparent, but variable so you can actually turn it into an awesome treble booster just by cranking up the treble and turning the bass down.

Wampler Euphoria

This pedal gave me instant Robben Ford and Larry Carlton tones. But the Euphoria differs from other D-style pedals as it has tons of gain and a 3 position switch to choose the clipping diode sound you want. By increasing the active bass control, the Euphoria goes into distortion range and gets close to fuzz. However, the Euphoria has an enormous gain range from edge of breakup, all the way to monstrous, but beware of the bass control. Start with the bass at 0 and increase until you find the right position for the Smooth, Open and Crunch settings. The Euphoria has great Dumble tones and more. It’s like having 5 or 6 pedals in one. I like the Euphoria so much that I sold my Boogie because I didn’t like how my Euphoria sounded through it. If you like Dumble tones, or transparent overdrive, the Euphoria is fit you. Don’t worry about whether it has enough gain because the only pedal I own with more gain is the CTC Motherload, which is a Rath and Big Muff Fuzz pedal. The Euphoria works extremely well with Fender Blackface and Silverface amps, but it doesn’t get along with my Tone King Gremlin.
