Cory Wong is a Grammy-nominated artist
renowned for laying down some of the finest
grooves across all genres. The Wampler
Cory Wong Compressor is at the heart of his
legendary tone. More than just a Compressor
and a Boost pedal, this dynamic toolkit
shapes your tone with sparkling cleans and
responsive compression either direct to your
amp or straight into your recording interface.
Prepare to find the funk!
The Wampler EGO compressor has been an integral part of
Cory Wong’s signature sound for years, providing the light touch required to subtly drive the best from his
tone, so this was a natural starting point for designing his signature pedal. Cory’s vision included some very
specific features including an XLR out so he could go straight into a computer interface, mixing desk, or
PA for those signature bright and clean tones. He also wanted to add a boost that allowed him to choose
either a flat volume boost or a rich, saturated boost that could push his midrange a little, all in a compact
pedal enclosure with two foot-switches and an always-ON mode allowing stage friendly operation.
The Wampler Cory Wong compressor features two soft footswitches that operate each function of the
pedal with a three-color LED indicator to show which mode is active. The Compressor side offers complete
control over Volume, Sustain, Attack, and Blend as well as Brian Wampler’s signature Tone control which can
be dialed in to add sparkle and chime to your guitar’s tone. On the boost side, a single rotary boost control
adjusts the amount of boost activated and a profile switch sets the mode of the boost circuit from a flat
boost to a rich saturated boost with an extra vibrancy around the 550Hz range. Combine both channels for
glorious compression and a powerful lead boost.
The Cory Wong Compressor is a complete solution for sculpting tone either on the stage or in the studio.
