Fulltone Fulldrive II
I have never liked the sound of my guitar so much. This pedal is wonderful. I literally plugged my Thinline into the Fulldrive II and then into the Little Giant head, turned the pedal on, strummed a G chord, and went into sheer musical overdrive bliss. My friend heard it and described it as the most "christian guitarist" tone that he has ever heard . I don't really know what that means, but regardless, it sounded amazing. This is EXACTLY what I had been looking for for quite a long time. Isaac is a happy camper

Right on. Fulldrive is a great pedal. And your friend wasn't too far off when he said "christian guitarist tone". Haha it does that very well.

It like... makes me want to play more haha. Even if I can't think of anything to play, I just sit there and strum the same chord over and over, just soaking up the amazing tone

Word to that! Once my Jekyll and Hyde gets here I'm going to be in sheer overdrive bliss and happiness.

After I got my Fulldrive, I found the Jekyll and Hyde disappointing.

Well the fulldrive is just so much.... prettier... idk... its hard to describe. It really depends on what you're playing too.

Basically my plan for it is to use the distortion side whenever I need a fairly hard distortion for any reason (I don't need that much at all) and the tube screamer side will just be for when I need a boost for what the fulldrive isn't already giving me

you need to give it less than 9v (around 4.5-5v is great)

It sounds soooo much better

I honestly prefer my J&H to the Fulltone. More versatile, I think.

Somehow I keep coming back to the good ol' FD2. I'm on my third one now and I think I'm finally keeping it. It loves my AC30! If you really want to see what this pedal is all about run it into a slightly overdriven tube amp!

The ONLY problem with the FD2 is finding a distortion that pairs well with it... That's a difficult thing to do.
Running it on low voltage is very nice for certain settings, like running it in front of a clean amp. There is some trade off though in less clarity and flabbier low end

I heard that the 18v sounds killer. I need to find a way that I can do that, as I'm really curious about how much better it makes it sound.
