Winner! 2007 Guitar Player Magazine's "Reader's Choice Poll "BEST STOMPBOX."
Chosen by Guitar Player Magazine as one of the all-time top 50 effects ever! Fulltone is the first to offer a switchable "Boost" Channel in an overdrive and manufacture our own Super-Duty 3PDT footswitch allowing True-Bypass plus LED.
Housed in a beautiful powder coated Blue 16ga.steel enclosure, the first channel is the "Overdrive Mode" capable of Clean Boost or non-compressed overdrive or choose light to medium softer Overdrives all while retaining your guitar's original tone. The Tone knob is a very effective Presence control that can smooth out or add upper harmonics.. There's also a footswitchable second channel "Boost Mode" with its own separate Distortion control for medium to higher gains with a more singing violin-like sustain!
Mini-Toggle #1
"Vintage" for old-style Fd2 mid-heavy tones that cut through the mix
"FM" stands for "flat-mids" offering a more natural sound but I've enhanced this mode for even more transparency, it sounds great on a strat's Neck Pickup, truly spectacular! .
"CompCut" feature removes the bounding from the feedback loop allowing for Monster Clean Boost tones and some rougher OD sounds with the OD and Boost knobs turned up
Mini-Toggle #2
- choice between MOSFET and Normal clipping modes
- "normal mode" is even more asymmetrical, sweeter, more open, no "blanket" over the sound.
- moved the LED's, borrowed the OCD's super bright LED's with (Fulltone's exclusive) "no thump/No pop" True Bypass.
- a beautiful sparkle Blue Metallic powder-coat finish for this...the final version of the most popular boutique OD ever made.
