MGR/MattG « Fulltone Fulldrive 2 Mosfet »
Published on 01/31/10 at 15:00This one of Fulltone's versatile overdrive pedals. In addition to the overdrive, it also has a boost. It has volume, tone, overdrive, and boost control.
I am a lead guitarist in a gigging country/rock band.
I bought this a from a friend for $100. I was looking for an overdrive that was thicker and creamier than the BOSS SD-1.
The overdrive is very rich and creamy. It has a range from medium overdrive, to a very thick and saturated overdrive. The boost does a nice job not changing the tone. The controls are not overly responsive and very user friendly. This pedal is especially good when playing humbuckers through it.
The gain starts a little to high. You cant get the sound of when the tubes are just beginning to break loose. It starts with a much more saturated sound and only gets more saturated.
Construction is very solid. It is in a metal stompbox with tough plastic knobs.
This pedal is a five if you play humbuckers but only a four if you are a single coil guy. It is the best pedal out there for a thick saturated overdrive without getting scratchy distortion. If it had a little less gain at the beginning of the range, it would be the best overdrive pedal period. Especially with the boost function.
