- Another budget-busting Gem from Dano. This is a Clone of the much heralded FULLTONE OCD...
You can find A/B reviews on Youtube that shows this to be accurate too!
Four controls - Level, Trebble/Bass (concentric/stacked dials) Gain.
Was the ridiculously low price of just £25.00 new and shipped!
Cool Silver colour boosted by The ULTRA-Blinding Sonic Blue LED when engaged! - Good Points: Solid, Great sounding - but as with many Cool Cats - witihn a narrowish band of settings on the pedal. Is articulate but not as articulate as its Transparent OD sibling...
HOWEVER - you use any pedal for a couple or so chosen settings generally and as this pedal is all about DRIVE and that MARSHALL Plexi sound, then you set you amp clean-ish, your guitar vol about half and the CO-1 at the best levels for your sound and use the Guitar Vol to accentuate.
It gives a definitive squarish sine wave sound and it loves HumBucker and a Les Paul or 335 especially!
Load up the Gain and Level then you can get some Fuzztone qualities too - extra bonus! - Bad Points: Fiddly piggyback tone/bass knob, but WTF! - it sounds bloody lovely!
- Price Paid: US$25.00
- Purchased At: DV247.co.uk
