The Triple Wreck high gain distortion pedal... When this pedal was thought of, it was decided that we would take no prisoners, we would produce a pedal with so much gain it would wipe the floor of anything else

This pedal is probably one of the tightest, thickest highest gain distortions you have ever heard... Many people have told us that it sounds more like a 5150 amp to them than a distortion pedal, that may very well be - All we know is that Brian designed it to just to be an ass kicking distortion pedal, heavier than everything else, meaner than everything else, and it is.

With a solid three band EQ (total control allowing you to scoop out those mids without it peeking out the lows and highs like so many other pedals) you can emulate some of your favorite high gain tones, but as this pedal is so versatile, you can easily find a distinctive tone all of your own. There is no much control over the tone your distinctive sound is waiting for you. Believe it or not, even when the gain is backed off, this pedal is still useable, still sounds great.

There are two distinct voices in this pedal, Vintage and Modern. The vintage gives you that warmer thump high gain where as the modern allows a little more sparkle to creep in, giving it that more recent, full audio spectrum feel.

So, we've already put in loads of gain, maybe more than you need, so let's stick in a boost switch. What...? Putting a boost switch on an already high gain pedal may sound crazy but you'll be amazed at how well it works. it gives you two options via the Crunch/Cream blend control. With the boost on and it dialed round to crunch, your distortion is multiplied and you have the solo sound you have always wanted. Pinch harmonics are just there, in places you've never found them before. With it dialed round to cream, your pedal turns into a fuzzy monster... Tweak the EQ and you can get tone that will remind you of the Smashing Pumpkins right round to some Pink Floyd kind of fuzzy solo tone. It's all there, waiting for you.

Think about your favorite high gain tone, is it a high gain with the mids scooped out, or is it roll your hand across the knobs to get that in your face, fuzz, attitude melting distortion. What ever you are looking for, this is probably the only pedal on the market that can satisfy all of those options. This pedal should come with a public health warning.

       

“...This is it, high gain bliss, but has the tone to back it up! My peavey classic 30 (with triple wreck) sounded better than my 5150 half stack! No joke! I even had to turn off my Fat boost pedal at the end of my pedal chain cause it was sucking tone from The triple wreck!! Funny cause the fat boost used to be my pedal that made my tone better...” - Dave Cox

“...about a year ago I bought a Triple Wreck to run with my Fender Super Reverb. I'm happy to report that this pedal is AWESOME and does exactly what I wanted it to do - give me that 90's high gain sound that made bands like Creed famous...”

“...Recently my son brought a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier into the house. It runs through a Mesa Recto 2x12 cabinet. He and I often play together and I can honestly say that you cannot tell the difference between those 2 amps when I use the 'Triple Wreck' and he uses the hi-gain channel 3...”

“...The one advantage that the Triple Wreck provides is the ability to get that great tone at lower volumes. In addition, I can quickly switch back to that beautiful Fender 'clean' at the push of a button. Yes, the Dual Rec BREATHES FIRE when you crank it up - BUT - tone suffers a bit at lower volumes and the clean tone is not quite as good as the Fender...”


“...Stubbyj on thegearpage...
What stood out (I must admit that I'm not a metal player):
1. Bass is stellar - tickled my ears as a live show - sounds lame, I know.
2. Mid toggle is very noticeable and both tones are great iconic tones
3. Tons of gain
4. Pinch harmonics beyond easy
5. Palm Muting sounds HUGE and VERY tight
6. Most tones VERY musical
7. Can achieve some good lower gain tones
8. Compared to my other higher gain pedals, this is more open
9. Controls VERY interactive and useful in all ranges...”
