Alright, now which O/D pedal?

[marty_the_westie]

You guys helped me decide on a Duncan pick up booster over a GE-7 equalizer, now help me decide on an overdrive. I already have a TS-9, but I'm thinking about trading it for a Voodoo Labs sparkle drive. I played one yesterday, and it was quite sweet with the clean blend, but I did'nt A/B that with the tube screamer. Which one do you think is better?

Hello buddy....Can you give us specifics on what you'd like different from your TS9? Do you wish the the next pedal would have more lows,less mids,more gain,etc....That helps dial in some ideas...There are literally hundreds of pedals out there today....

I currently have "CapoFirstFret's" Sparkle Drive right now that I'm working on for him...He'd like more gain and more overall roundness(ballsy) tone from his pedal...

Later on today I'll let you know how the pedal turns out once I run it through it's paces..I upgraded the chip,beefed up some components,and added more gain to his pedal...Stand by..The Sparkle Drive is very similar to a tube screamer but it has that clean knob..
