The
Wampler Pinnacle Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal is the ultimate pedal if you want extreme gain or mild overdrive with an awesome ‘Brown Sound’! The Pinnacle pedal has an extremely tweakable EQ that goes from scooped mids to tons of warm mids, all with the turn of 2 knobs.
The Wampler Pinnacle distortion has 4 knobs, two separate tone controls that act as a sort of parametric EQ, gain and volume. It also has a 'bright' switch that adds a ton of variety and is very handy when playing a dark sounding amp, as well as another toggle switch that will give you high gain ‘Brown Sound’ tones.

Pinnacle vs Pinnacle Deluxe
The Wampler Pinnacle and Pinnacle Deluxe share the same great tone. The difference comes in the form of a couple special features found on the Deluxe version that make it more involved for us to make, but which add some extra versatility for you. While the standard Pinnacle has a toggle switch to control its Gain Boost, the Pinnacle Deluxe has that same functionality on a foot switch, so you can kick it in without having to bend down in the middle of a song.
The only other difference is that the Pinnacle Deluxe has an additional, internal volume adjustment (just in case you need to go to ‘11’ on the output volume). Because of the added switch, the Pinnacle Deluxe is a little bit larger than the standard Pinnacle, something to keep in mind if you're running a packed pedal board.
Which Pinnacle is right for you isn't a question of tone, because they both nail that coveted ‘Brown Sound’! It just comes down to whether you need the special features found on the Pinnacle Deluxe, or prefer the smaller footprint of the standard Pinnacle.
