1. President and Founder

   Wampler Pedals, Inc

   Jan 2004 — Present

   I started Wampler Pedals in my garage in 2004 and built it from a hobby into a global brand, seeing steady and significant growth year after year in one of the most saturated markets out there. I’ve either run or planned, managed, and executed every part of the business - product development, marketing, manufacturing, artist relations, logistics, support, and everything in between.Wampler Pedals stands apart because we obsess over the details that matter. Real-world tone, honest business, and building gear for musicians instead of chasing trends. Our pedals are trusted by legends like Brad Paisley, Brent Mason, Vince Gill, Keith Urban, Mark Tremonti, Joe Perry, George Lynch, Neal Schon, Cory Wong, and many more. Players across the globe choose our products because they work on real stages and in real studios with real musicians.Over the years, Wampler has earned awards including Best Premium Pedal of the Year, Premium Gear Award, and Multi-Pedal of the Year. Our gear is available worldwide. We’ve built a loyal and engaged customer base through our online community, no-nonsense education, and customer service that actually cares.Since 2016, after licensing manufacturing and distribution, my focus has been on marketing, branding, product development, customer retention, and scaling the brand with both in-house teams and outside partners. I’ve also consulted for other guitar gear companies on everything from marketing and operations to branding and product strategy.What has always set Wampler apart is this: care about every detail, never cut corners, and you build tools that musicians come back to year after year. My approach is hands-on, honest, and relentless about improvement. That’s how we built a brand musicians trust worldwide.
