Sound Pure's Take
The OCD has quickly become a mainstay on lot of pro pedalboards all over the world. This particular pedal is the 2nd version of the original circuit, giving you a little more mids and a little less bass and highs than its predecessor.
Overall, the pedal is monstrously versatile, both in terms of its incredible level of dynamics and the range of distortion available. Everything between lean, clean boosting and fuzz-like distortion can be found in the sweep of the gain knob. If you are looking for a dynamic, responsive overdrive for both chords and leads, the OCD is your dirtbox!

OCD
AMPS... if you've ever owned a GREAT amp, like a Marshall 18 watt, a VOX AC15 or a Marshall JTM45, and if you have a place where you can crank them up loud, then you know what I'm talking about. Smack a power chord and you (not only) hear the fundamental notes, but you get (count 'em) 4, 5, even 6 additional overtones ringing into a feedback... notes that you can whistle if your ear is good enough! Think Zep'sOcean or Custard Pie or classic tones, including James Gang, the Beatles, AC/DC, Free., and so on.
Back off the guitar's volume and there are a dozen great other sounds at your fingertips... Clean, spanky sounds, with all the highs and lows still intact. And a Tele still sounds like a Tele, a Les Paul like a Les Paul.
PEDALS... (until now) just can't hold a candle to what a good amp can do if you are really picky. You not only lose all the touch sensitivity, but forget about those complex Harmonics. (For me) It's always been somewhat of a compromise using Overdrive pedals... until now. Ladies and Gentleman, I am proud to introduce the Fulltone OCD. I made this pedal for me, but I think you might like it too.
