The Plexi-Drive is Wampler's Marshall-plexi-in-a-box: an overdrive and distortion voiced like a cranked Marshall, and owners treat it as an amp-in-a-box rather than a normal pedal. It nails classic Marshall crunch and is a go-to for blues, rock and Hendrix-style tones, with owners calling it monstrous and, for some, a favourite they liked straight out of the gate, even the cheap Mini beating out pricier drives. The way to get the most from it is to run it like an amp: keep your amp dead clean, put your chorus, delay and reverb after it as if in an effects loop, and boost it from the front with an overdrive like a Tube Screamer or a Timmy to push it into a cranked-plexi crunch. It comes in Mini and Deluxe versions.
