Hi guys, this is my Sparkle... A very dynamic overdrive I designed... The drive section is a pretty standard design: IC followed by a couple of clipping diodes between stages. It has a baxandall tonestack in it so I could dial with the bass and treble content...
Carefully chosen buffer stages on input and output, make the tone really warm and touch sensitive...
It is also my first pedal with glittered powdercoating paint and silk screen...
I'll post gut shots asap...
Cheers...(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/09/03/na2ejy6e)

Ok, now I read it on the report... sorry :-[ I only processed "glittered powdercoating" the first time...
That's about as clean as they get. Very nice.
Looks pro, man. Nice work.
Thank you guys...
Very nicely done!
Hot damn that looks uber professional! Great job.
Yeah, This is super clean. I really like the design.
Boutique-quality finish and look, plus it's a circuit you designed. It doesn't get any better than that.

Yeah! This is the key factor I choose... I've never wanted to go out with a clone of something already existing...

... and it is much more satisfying... IMO...
Awesome build like others have said. I love the simplicity of the graphics. Looks great.

Perfect!! I'll do it asap! 8) 8)
Looks fantastic! I'm curious as to how it sounds.
Any chance we get to take a look at the guts of the effect? :)
Very nice, love the simple aesthetics, makes it very clean. ;)
But yeah... Gut shot or you know... ...it's a behringer re-house. ;)

Beautiful and tidy inside as it is outside. Nice work.
Very slick!

:-[ I have to admit that it is not so beautiful on the inside... I'm still working on the internal spaces... It is not easy at all to make all the spaces filled in the proper way...
I'm on the learning path... ::)
Looks fine to me; very neat.
I really like the graphics/layout too. It's a pretty pedal!
