Brad Paisley's Effects Pedals
Filter by
Paisley uses the Line 6 M13 Stompbox Modeler, “for some pitch effects and some really long delays where I’ll double delays up on a couple of things, use a short and a long delay in it, it’s a really nice piece,” (4:45).

The upper right of this photo of Brad Paisley's pedalboard shows he uses the Wampler The Paisley Drive Signature Overdrive Guitar Pedal.
Brad has been a long time user of Wampler pedals. Not having quite settled on a good overdrive tone, this is what he had to say about the requirements:
"It needs to be clean but get crunchy with some "beef" to it. It needs to have a fluid tone when soloing. It needs to add a little hair to the tone but then has to be able to give flat out ball busting gain. Oh but please do not wreck the tonality. It needs to have everything, in a pedal format, but do not make it sound like a pedal!"
Brian at Wampler made some prototypes for Brad. Brad selected one which went straight into the live rack and out on the H20world tour.
This photo likely shows Paisley's prototype, since the commercially available version of the pedal has a different, more polished look.

Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer: “He uses this all the time, it’s his go-to pedal. We use 808s and TS9s pretty much interchangeably, so I hope that ends some kind of fight out there on the internet! [laughs]”

We use that specifically on the opening of Water. He does this Jaws lick. He used to do a Van Halen cover, Hot For Teacher, and he used it on that. We have this set really heavy and he only ever uses it dry
