*** This pedal isn't used ever *** / NOS New Old Stock


Ever since it was introduced in 2004, the Fulltone OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Drive) pedal has wormed its way into the rigs of the famous and filthy. What happened is, Fulltone recently lucked into a cache of germanium diodes — and bought them all up. The result is a limited-edition run of Custom Shop pedals with intense definition, a more tube-like feel, wider dynamic range, increased sustain, and a more highly focused single-note tone. And then there's that gorgeous Metallic Teal with chrome undercoat paint job! Grab this beauty while you can. Redesigned output buffer for sonic excellence

Fulltone knows that the pedals you place after your overdrive pedal can influence the sound of your dirt box — that's why they gave the OCD-Ge an updated output buffer that is impervious to the sonic effects of successive pedals. Said another way, your tone remains consistent no matter where in your chain or loop switcher the OCD-Ge is placed. Fulltone also explains that the output buffer reduces loading on the pedal's hard-clipping stage, which allows for more sustain.
Premium Class A JFET input

For better performance with single-coil and humbucking pickups alike, Fulltone equips the OCD-Ge with a Class A discrete 2N5457 JFET input section. The input impedance has been raised from the previous 330K to 1 mega ohm. The result is better interaction with your guitar's pickups and a noticeably enhanced dynamic range.
Switchable Enhanced Bypass and True Bypass modes

If there's one thing Fulltone takes seriously, it's the pursuit of tone. They've never been completely satisfied with the buffered bypass circuits found in many pedals, so after years of research, they've invented an alternative — they call it Enhanced Bypass. Instead of employing Field Effect Transistors for unity gain like most buffered pedals, OCD-Ge features FETs in a Class A configuration that maintains the nuances of your playing. Fulltone explains, "all the dynamics return," delivering a more expressive sound than you can get from traditional buffer circuits. The OCD-Ge also offers True Bypass mode accessible via an internal switch.
