Description

The Sweetheart is a handmade, hand-wired vintage-preamp/overdrive pedal from Paperboy Pedals built with NOS germanium transistors, carbon composition resistors, axial film & electrolytic capacitors, Alpha potentiometers and Neutrik jacks. It delivers everything from a clean, colorful boost to gritty amp-like overdrive depending on pickups and settings. A clip-switch allows selection between germanium diode clipping, no clipping (boost) and silicon diode clipping. The “Sweetness” knob controls input signal (darkening tone and lowering grit as it’s turned down) and the right-knob controls output volume. It is very dynamic and interactive, especially with guitar volume control and pickups.
