Tubescreamers have so much folklore about them. I die inside every time I hear someone say they like the OD9 over the OD808 because it’s blahblahblah. I love how you add on additional features. Thats why Wampler makes the best pedals in this segment.

[@TheRickJames09]

I'm confused as to what your saying. you don't hear a difference between an OD9 and OD808 or are you talking about different "chip" folklore

[@wampler_pedals]

@@TheRickJames09 There may be some confusion here: The Maxon OD9 is a TS. The Ibanez OD9 is a muff clone

I think this comment kinda speaks for it's self, lol... I'M gettin "I hear people talking about Tube Screamers, and the differences between models, but I don't understand what they're talking about so I tune it out..." lol... I'm guessin he meant between the TS-9, and 808, but hey, if you can't be bothered to even remember the NAME of the pedal, you're right, that's NOT a discussion you should get into, hoss, lol...

I was waiting for him to turn off a reverb pedal and then have the dialogue be dry haha.

[@monstercadaver]

My inner dialogue has a 1300 ms delay, so it sounds like my mind is second guessing itself.

[@jimhoman4415]

Cool pedal. I was lucky enough to see SRV on his last tour from back stage. He was using TS10s and standard Crybaby wah pedal. He had a drawer full of them. I asked his tech why he carried so many, he said "because he stomps on them and breaks them all the time." Wish I would have studied his set up better and know what I know now to really understand it. I was 19 at the time.

Good to see another video, and another pedal! Thanks Brian. as always, I like your attention to detail on your designs. I have been building circuits and having fun. mostly overdrives and fuzz circuits. I plan on venturing into some reverb and modulation. thank you as always for the inspiration to build!

[@jamiew.lacroix7055]

I'm glad that you give the people what they want while remaining "transparent" about everything, but also you give them what you would want FROM that pedal by adding or dare I say improving it. I can't wait to try it Brian, I bet it'd sound like a great tube screamer in my setup.

[@Mistertbones]

You've done it again, Brian! Amazing pedal!

[@barry4303]

It's really cool, groovy, right on and all of the above to hear and see the man, the myth and the legend reviewing his own pedal, his comment on how the amp, guitar and settings all contribute to the tone is the truth, the rest is up to the player. I'm not a big fan of the tube screamer but this pedal is so much more, his reference to the Zen Drive got my attention although I don't own an original, drive a very old beat up truck that always needs fixing, might have to sell the spare tire to buy the Moxie, enough said. Thank you Mr Wampler, you encourage people to keep on learning and playing.

[@happycadaver]

Damn, that mod sounds amazing. Great work as always, Brian!! And also the intro to this video was hilarious. Gotta love when the chainsaw comes out!!

i love your videos, there's so much packed into a reasonable length even with a legendary intro. i finished my 20th pedal build yesterday and your channel has been one of my biggest inspirations. I've been using what components I've had on hand but it might be time to breadboard first and test exact component values. building a new pcb versus fine-tuning a circuit are two very different things, and i think that's my next major step. after this FV1 build...

Great pedal! That "Sorta-Zendrive" mode does something similar to the Vick Audio Tree of Life I've been using. It's a "half-OCD-half-Zendrive (and half-ManBearPig) pedal. The Moxie does that" thing" plus the cool TS mode(s). The price is right as well. Cheers, Wampler. You're on a roll this year.

@@cloremancey2653 TheGearPage, it's a forum where literally every member trolls pedal makers like Brian from Wampler or Josh from JHS. Essentially they are the ones who claimed Klon was transparent/flat EQ and got angry when Brian and Josh pointed out it actually has a mid-hump.

[@TL-angzarr]

@@PedalPoopers Meh TGP is filled with copier salesman who have never played any venue larger than their bedrooms. Why would anyone listen to criticism from people they would never ask advice from. Wampler builds great stuff the haters can go suck buttermilk.

[@PedalPoopers]

Third comment not showing up, must be a TGP member (cough cough *clown* cough cough) that got offended 😂 I see members like Chronic Fatigue and Jim Marciano whining about it on the forum already.

[@PedalPoopers]

TGP trolls like Chronic Fatigue and Jim Marciano are already crying about comments on a certain Moxie video that never existed, people are already bashing the Moxie for nothing. Remember these are the guys that tried their best to downplay the Paisley Drive, shouting how it was a mere Tube Screamer clone with just more gain. It always cracks me up how people refuse to operate in reality.

[@tubularbill]

Another masterpiece Brian!

[@bb_lz9790]

Within one minute, I had Superstrip envy! I still have mine from college in the late '70s/early '80s and it has had a reverb driver/recovery circuit on it for 30+ years.

Damn, that thing sounds GREAT, Brian! Way to go! And you're exactly right, having to pay $500 for a TS-10 is RIDICULOUS... Thanks for a better way for us Tone Chasers to get familiar with a great, classic, and ridiculously priced circuit...

[@nickolasecker9596]

The ts10 is my favorite topology, I use the tone geek valve screamer and it’s my favorite of the six ts style pedals I own. The moxie may be another addition to my ts collection!

[@michaelfreer9183]

Repping @60CycleHum! That’s awesome!

[@andyhayes7828]

After watching several vids of this pedal, I think that, for me, this pedals best ability is engaging the fat switch and unleashing that extra gain stage (in regular mode)....every demo of this feature yields one of the best sounding distortions I've heard. It seriously sounds like Ed Van Halens Marshall back in '77 🤘

[@PaulWegmann]

Loved that plate

[@jahjah67]

I’m going out on a limb and predict this will be your best selling pedal. I’m no big fan of the TS-10 and don’t own one but this pedal covers so much ground, many will find a use for it. Well done, sir

[@louiscyfer6944]

i had ts10 that broke. i just got this to replace it. i also got the belle and the tumnus. i had a klon, no need for it, the tumnus is just as good. there is no need to pay top dollar for a ts10 either.

[@PooNinja]

Never stop being you Sir 🤘🏽

I'm not too fond of TS style pedals with the Vox amps that I use, but I get the impression that this pedal might be a great fit. Great video, Brian. Cheers

Pre-ordered this pedal based solely off Brian’s awesome video here. First screamer, now feeds three ODs on an 18 pedal monstrosity. It has reaps spades in terms of benefits-makes Morning Glory, modded BD2 & even Zendrive fuller, and is always propping then up (when not shining on its own). So glad I got this lil box!!!

Bought this pedal, several months ago. Every time I plug it in and play through it, I always wonder "why do I need anything else"? (I have drawers full of great pedals, of all price ranges...Wampler, JHS, Boss, MXR, Bogner, Carl Martin, TC Electronics, Mosky, Caline, Joyo, etc., etc., etc.) Because I'm a "pedal junkie" requiring my next awesome pedal "fix", I guess?!! Seriously Brian, it's Great! :D Really enjoying it's versatility, in front of every amp I've tried...Fender, Marshall, Vox, etc.! Cheers! :D

[@dannyllerenatv8635]

I had an MIJ TS10 for some time and my only gripe with it besides the build quality of the 10 series was the lack of volume. It's nice to see a take on the TS10 since we already have so many takes on the 808 and TS9.

[@drdre4397]

I just bought a Bonsai, it sounds literally the same blindfolded and it also has 8 other tubescreamers in it. It was half the price of most ts10s. Had I known this was coming I might have waited but I'm still thrilled with my ratsbane, the toggles really help with tone shaping. Honestly I built my first board last year and 13 pedals later it's finally done, so I really need to lay off the spending haha.

[@DavidRFIT]

Hi there Brian, just wanted to tell you I bought a Wampler Ego and for the first time in my life I'm appreciating a compressor pedal. Any other compressor I tried before lacked something. The Ego is just awesome, musical, transaprent. Awesome pedal.

[@davedeville6540]

A Wampler ODS pedal in the small enclosure would be a given buy for me. I tried the OneControl Golden Acorn for a while but found it to be too hot and a bit gated. After searching around I found I liked the sound in the Vertex Ultraphonix MkI the most. It has less gain and a more airy sound which lets the pickups breath and enhances overtones. However, the Ultraphonix is big and a bit fragile. A small Wampler would be perfect

[@WendellSexson]

Those are my 2 Wamplers too. Nice pedals.

[@darrellowe4208]

[@Soloist1983]

What a neat pedal, sounds great. I'm still trying to figure out what it is that makes some overdrives sound and more importantly, FEEL great to play on. There are some overdrives that I can pull off any and all legato licks with ease (hammer-ons/pull-off's), whereas some overdrives, and amp designs (like Mesa Boogie's) seem to take twice the effort to pull off the same licks, makes my hand sore sometimes to play on those amps as it really doesn't react to your dynamics the same way, very unpleasant.
