Wampler Pedals - Hot Wired v2, Brent Mason demo - Channel 1

www.wamplerpeda...
Brent Mason gives a guided tour of channel one (Overdrive) of the v2 of his signature "Hot Wired" pedal from Wampler Pedals.
Most people think they've never heard of Brent Mason. We would bet that although you may not recognize the name, chances are huge that you have heard him. Brent is, without doubt, the number 1 session musician working out of Nashville and has been since the early 1990's.
If you have seen 'Friends', 'Bridget Jones Diary' or 'Becker'... Or listened to Shania Twain, Travis Tritt, Alan Jackson, George Strait or any other of the hundreds of artists that call Brent first when they need a guitar player on their recording, you've heard him. It's getting to the point now where Brent is probably one of the most recorded guitar players in history.
Not only is he a now a legendary studio figure, but also a renowned composer and songwriter. His compositions have been used in countless films, TV shows and commercials. His solo albums, in particular "Hot Wired" (from which this pedal got its name) has become almost mythical in its reputation for guitar tone and quality of musicianship. With Brent, you will not believe it until you hear it.
Built on the foundations of v1, v2 stands alone in terms of versatility. The studio scene in Nashville has changed over the last few years, so we had to change the Hot Wired to mirror the industry Brent works in. As you probably already know, v1 was geared towards all out chickin' pickin' and beyond - v2 brings you a broader range of subtlety in channel 1 that mirrors Brent's work today. You can still find the chickin' pickin' tones, but you can also find a deeper, warmer overdrive section that will allow you to play as smooth as you like. With the added blend control, you won't believe how fat your tone can be without it sounding too overdriven. Channel 2 still has the same "Plexi" flavor that Brent loves.
Two pedals in one (overdrive and distortion), this is without doubt one of the most versatile pedals available today. One channel has all your overdrive needs, from a gentle break up to all out crunch, the other gives you dirt... Loads of fat, creamy distortion that is tonally perfect from top to bottom. If need be you can stack them both together for a huge, huge sound.
Brent uses this pedal daily in the studio. He uses it live. When it has Brent's name on it, you know it's nothing short of perfect.

Damn that sounds good. I was expecting yet just one more overdrive. But the subtle quality here really has my attention. Oh & a delusion belief that if I buy one somehow I will play & sound like Brent.

[@jesslm02]

Nice! I could listen to Brent play all day long. Great work on the demos Brian and congrats on the new pedal being released!

[@StevenRoby]

Just one day in my life if I could play like this...

[@gilleschiasson4485]

Brent has some dang tasty licks and this pedal lends itself very nicely to this kind of style.

[@anitadavideduo]

Yeah!

[@marc_leblanc]

I own this one. Channel 1 is always on for me - love it! Channel 2 is not really suitable for my playing tho. Too bad they don't have a micro pedal version that just has channel 1 on it. It would give me more room on my board. Guitar players...they're never happy with their tone, huh? **LOL**

[@patrickbrown8540]

At 5:07 we can confirm Brent’s legendary Tele has locking tuners

[@dickdog1]

I noticed a little top end fizz on that dirt i didnt like at first. Maybe its from the amp or something. Oh, Brent- you passed the audition.

[@jimmoulton9878]

Finally nailed it, eh? Go Brent!!

[@marc_leblanc]

Yeah with a little practice, he might make it someday!! ;-)

[@etuoo]

Brent is such a bad ass... Some just don't get it, right Replay

[@TheBigGuppy]

I need a high gain dirt pedal. Is heart of channel 2 similar to the Pinnacle or Plextortion circuit? Because I really like channel 1 but I already have a Sparkle Drive sitting after the Ego that can sort of cover what channel 1 does. I was leaning towards the Pinnacle but this pedal looks really nice. The high gain section is what I really need. My old Rat is shot. Thanks

[@Guitareben]

I think your audio track is distorting... Great pedal though, and Brent is insane :O

[@bashfulbrother]

I have a sneaking suspicion that both Brian and Brent are from another planet. Has anyone else noticed that they're names both begin with a B? Also you never see either of them getting into a flying saucer, and that clinches it. If they weren't extra terrestrials they wouldn't worry about being seen going into flying saucers.

[@MrMarcburger]

you're basically explaining where conspiracy thinkers come from 😂

[@JAWalker87]

wanting to know how this pedal is to a tweed 57 pedal? or is the tweed 57 a pedal on its own. thank you

[@samwilcockmusic]

Brent is so killer

[@badmuddy]

ya know what would be REALLY smart? adding a clean, balanced output to run to a desk in the studio, because, if you run your gain peds in your fx loop (like i do) the clean sound directly out of the guitar doesn't always do the job for the final result; it's TOO unadulterated, & missing the guitar's clean sound after going through the amp's pre. any way you do it, an add'l clean output would open up a new realm of possibilities...

[@Brennansdad]

Dang

[@cnrbsmth]

90s boy band jeans!

[@bernardsergeant6569]

What is that riff at 4:55?

[@AngelLeppard]

Brent Mason - Blowin Smoke

[@wampler_pedals]

Completely different, this pedal is nothing like the Tweed '57. :)

[@dallastoto3189]

Sounds like this and the Brad paisley pedal are very similar..I just bought Brent Masons Hotwired pedal, hope it just what the Doctor ordered. Lol

[@chad-pl4xd]

Incoming helicopter @ :54

[@teleplucker6802]

What's the song at 4:26/5:38?

[@hit1295]

blowin smoke

[@cjMhill]

He's not a bad player. :-)

[@adamdixon4023]

considering getting one of these. HOWEVER does channel 1s blend control act like a tube screamer? does it mix clean and over driven signal?

[@wampler_pedals]

Yes, it pans between the clean signal and the overdriven signal

[@jmac5937]

With a few guitar lessons this guy could be good!

[@Matthew_Scan]

He sounds like James Burton

[@CreamyBone]

Pick it son

[@deanmartin541]

coca cola

[@replayreplay3780]

This kind of playing bores the hell out of me

[@shawnglass108]

Replay Replay ,Thanks..We were all wondering how you felt about it.

[@replayreplay3780]

Shawn Glass obviously. You committed

[@mantis707]

yet your comment manages to be even more borish
