Sparkle Drive MOD - MOD Tone Tour

Voodoo Lab

collapse expand iconDescription

The Sparkle Drive MOD overdrive effects pedal from Voodoo Lab delivers all the overdriven sounds of the original Sparkle Drive but with a twist. Using the MOD switch, you can select the stock 808-based circuit or instantly pick from three custom mods. Whether you need more gain, tighter bass response, a more-vocal midrange, or a thick and juicy lead tone, Sparkle Drive MOD gives you the tools to get there.

In Stock mode, you get the classic tube-style midrange grind that's great for blues or for boosting your solos. Mod 1 is the Lead circuit with extra gain, a thick and juicy bottom end, and smooth highs that are perfect for single-note melodies. Mod 2 delivers punchy, mid-cut rhythm tones thata re great for chunky rock power chords and funk. Mod 3 gives you the high-gain treatment with articulate highs and an aggressive bottom end.

Additional features include a unique Clean control that allows you to blend in a boosted direct signal restoring attack and feel. Switching is true bypass via a high-reliability gold-contact relay.

    I really like the clean overdrive and true bypass of this pedal. I use it with a Voodoo Lab Giggity pedal for great control of tone modeling. Although I often would rather just play through the amp clean, these two pedals allow me to get that cranked up sound at lower volume levels.

    I never owned the original Sparkle Drive pedal but I know that it was pretty much one dimensional - i.e. a "screamer" clone. Most who owned or who had tried the original version liked it. Well, if you were one of those people or maybe especially if you weren't - you should love this version! Four different "drive" settings - all with the option to dial in as much "clean" as you want offers the player a world of choice. As we all know, many pedals sound one way with single coil type guitars and a completely different way with humbucker types. Often we need to either change pedals or drastically adjust the settings to compensate for those differences. I would suggest that this pedal offers something for every guitar and pick-up type. From the original "TS" sound, to heavy "bottom end" to "scooped out" mids - there should be something here for everyone. I also own the "Giggity" - sister pedal to this one. When you play through both it adds even more tonal options. In this newer line of Voodoo Lab pedals they really got it right. Solid build, no noise, hiss or hum, silent on/off switch and great tonal variety. I own lots of other "boutique" type overdrives all of which are in and out of use from time to time. But - it looks like this one has found a permanent place in my pedal chain.
