Is the sparkle drive mod an official pedal or whatever I saw somewhere else was a photoshop edit?

 

[Pissedplexi]

Still getting to know this one but it’s one pedal and really adjustable with many flavors. You know. Variety. Feels great and is clear sounding. It’s a wiener of a pedal.

Phil X is a madman. He knows his chitlans too.

Yes but that red stomp button ES soooo sexy.

Yeah it’s machined aluminium with three Allen key screws holding it in place .
It’s a bit of a pain to fit but worth it.
You can find them on amazon in packs of different colours .

Trumpets inspiration for me before I cyborged the fuck out of my guitars because I couldn't find one for a noninsane price.

Really? I had no idea.

I miss those halcyon days of 2010-14 or so when Paul's waitlist was a
thing and you could score a KILLER custom build for less than $300.

I bought a few direct from him, and have not a single one right now.

Pretty sure I'll plunk down $500-$700 at some point in the future on a
Rotobone GE/Si.

For me, there is nothing else out there like his builds. Full stop.

That's the closest Google hit I could get on Deuxplex, yeah. But JT's "trumpet" comment threw me off the the trail. I thought maybe there was some kind of guitar synth/ slow gear effect going on. No? Just oodles of gain?

The "Plex" is a recent addition in the grand scheme of things. Fairly clean OD. Hence, the "Plex"
designation. Compared to his initial offerings I found it quite tame and a bit boring and bland.

His Tornita, Bone Machine, Feederbone, and Rotobone are all the wild offerings he became
known for. There was even a take on the Bone pedals by J Rockett called the WTF.

David Torn does some amazing things with Paul's builds and I believe the Tornita ("Torn) was
made specifically for him before being offered to the wider public.

Also, Paul is just a wonderful human. Sensitive artist type with a gentle soul. Love the guy!

It's the rotobone, iirc? Has that splatty horn sound \m/

Yup. Many/most of his builds did that thing. I could never rely on it.

That fuzzy/gated analog octave down thing was so fun. But in the
moment..... it could be hard to control.

Different Capacitor values on an indented Rotary control combined with a
Jordan Bosstone circuit. More or less.

Yeah I got a J Rockett thing that was "kinda" like it, it was noisy af and didn't do "the thing" so I said fuck it and went full blown Revenge of the Nerds with Roland

It was an official release.
