Heather Brown Electronicals The Blessed Mother

Introducing the overdrive pedal that found favor with God. The Blessed Mother™ births a classic OD sound with power from the Most High. Her supernatural combination of germanium and silicon diodes generates a uniquely raw, yet velvety tone. She features an adjustable transparency function: The Immaculator. This lets you preserve or purify the sound's original grit to your liking.

She plays well with others, is true bypass, and has great treble and bass control range. Makes a splendid first stage OD or clean boost. Takes 9vDC.

And yes, heart and halo do light up when pedal is powered on...cuz God's mom deserves it.

For Nerds: I use a simple clipping circuit with 4558 and TL072 ics, a Silver Mica capacitor, 1N34A's, and a 1N914, asymmetrical. (Yes I test the diodes).

TBM is, like all (except maybe 3) overdrives, a somewhat original yet derivitave design. Homage is of course due to Mike Matthews for bringing us clipping innovation. This pedal essentially creates warmth and transparency versatility that I always wanted but couldn't find in an OD.
