Product Information


Double your pleasure with two amp tones!

The Voodoo Lab Sparkle Drive pedal gives you the dynamic punch of a clean amp, and the sustain and warmth of an overdriven amp, all in a single stompbox. Sparkle Drive's unique Clean control lets you blend its overdrive circuit with a boosted clean signal for a rich, layered guitar tone.

With the Clean control off (fully counterclockwise), the overdrive circuit has the same classic tones as a vintage 808. With the Clean control all the way up, you get a super transparent, 100% clean boost with tons of output for driving the front end of your amp. Just spend a few minutes dialing-in the Clean control with your setup, and you'll find a sweet spot that no other single effect pedal can deliver. The Voodoo Lab Sparkle Drive features true bypass switching, a heavy-duty metal switch and on/off status LED. Hand built in the U.S.A. and fully backed by a 5-year warranty.

With our Guaranteed Lowest Price, you can be assured of complete satisfaction and the lowest available price, or your money back!

A Truly Dynamic Overdrive

I received the VooDoo Labs Sparkle Drive a couple of years ago as a gift. When I first tried it out, i was playing a second rate guitar thorough a practice amp and i was delighted by how much warmth and harmonic complexity the pedal coaxed out. The box is small enough to be entirely unobtrusive on your pedal board, and the casing feels like it could stand up to more abuse than i would likely subject it to. The knobs turn smoothly and the tone shaping controls are very effective. I always find myself with the tone control between 9:00 and 3:00, so there are plenty of highs and lows available depending on your taste. This pedal sounds similar to a vintage ts808, but it is better in my opinion, because it costs less, and it has a unique and very useful "clean" control which means if you love the way your amp sounds clean, and you dont want to compramise that tone in order to get your gritty distortion tones, you can find a balance of the two that sounds best. I always have the pedal on because it sounds so natural. It can even be kicked on as a clean boost! But it delivers plenty of thick distortion when that is called for as well. Basically, Unless heavy hitting European Black metal is your thing, this pedal won't disappoint.

No good by itself. But.....

Okay, so the concept of this pedal is great. Who doesnt wanna add clean clarity to a chunky, overdriven riff? But see, while the overdrive unit on the Sparkle Drive has somewhat impressive gain and pretty good tonal versatility, it does NOT mix well with the clean signal. Mixing the clean significantly with the overdrive causes the drive to almost fade out completely. So by itself, this pedal is basically only a clean boost, but it IS really good one in my opinion. If you wanna mix the clean clarity with your overdrive tone, just put the sparkle drive after another overdrive pedal (I use a Marshall GV-2, although I've seen it used well with a Tube Screamer TS9), and BAM! Now you have an overdriven amp with solid clarity because of the Sparkle Drive's clean boost!

Very good TS808 clone with extras

The Voodoo Sparkle Drive is very good for adding that extra punch to your tone to get the perfect distortion and can be distorted or transparent depending on how you set it. It function similiarly to a Fulltone Fulldrive 2 in that respect. It also has the ability to mix the signal so that you can get a straight up TS808 tone or a clean boost. The pedal is used by a lot of artists for a reason. It gives you a professional sounding tone.
