I'm not sure if anyone knows this or is okay to tell everyone, but is the Sparkle Motion being brought back sometime? I really would like to try one out.

It's going into production :thumb:

Since Brian is going on tour soonish it might not be for a few months, but he told me it was going to be a regular production pedal.

Thanks, man.

I didn't want to seem like I was pressuring Brian or anything because I read he's very busy with so much stuff at the moment (bad things as well), so I just thought I'd ask here instead. :D

Same goes dudeski. Just got my OD, and thinking bout asking him to do me up a little somesin' somesin' custom with a Sparkle Motion involved in one side. Not yet however, will wait until everything's on the uppity. He seems the kind that'll fulfill his orders before he takes the time to deal, and I'd be loathe to be the dude who asks for things whilst somebody's got a lot going on.

After receiving my TAFM and seeing the quality build and overall sound/look I have decided that I need a Fuck and a Sparkle motion asap! Cannot wait for the production model!

If your running the fuck into a heavy doomish fuzz, the fuck will give you those broken thunder sounds ala Torche. This into the Pharaoh is a great combo.

BTW, now that you've had the TAFM and Pharaoh and a ton of other heavy pedlulz, what are the differences?

Had a gig last night where I cranked my (little 15W) amp and ran the sparkle motion into it at full volume. FUCK. Best thing I've ever heard. :thumb:

I told myself that I wasn't going to buy anything ss/bs until after I got the tourbox. Well, that didn't happen. The Sparkle Motion I picked up in the B/S/T showed up yesterday and I love it already. I've got it on the bassier setting with just a touch of breakup, and I think that this will be an always on pedal for me.

The bassier settings on the sparkles are amazing, there are some really cool fuzztones in there!
