Members dunnoaname Posted November 26, 2009 Members Share Posted November 26, 2009 I woke up this morning and found a fulltone fuldrive 2 on my doorstep So i've been noodling around and i really really like it! The flat mids sound is totally the sort of overdrive I like, and the boost allows me to kick it into lead sound. The comp cut setting is great for a clean boost that tightens your sound. I wil be using this setting at my gig tonight with the bigband. The vintage setting sounds like a regular tubescreamer to me. Nice sound, but doesn't fit me. Whenever I land a blues gig or oldschool rock I might use it. PICTURE TIME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drive pedals I've had or still have: Rat2 Visualsound R66 Bad Monkey Dano TOD Boss HM 2 Boss SD-1 Blackstar HT dist It compares best to the route 66 or the BadMonkey. Those are closest in sound. The fulldrive is more natural sounding than the BM to my ears, and loads more versatile than te Route 66. Also the boost is a feature I need more then built in compressor.

Members valvestate Posted November 26, 2009 Members Share Posted November 26, 2009 One of my fave and most used pedal in my board!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members theGhost Posted November 26, 2009 Members Share Posted November 26, 2009 ok, that does help. i've only heard a fulldrive in a few settings, and they sound real nice, but do they get very over-the-top gain on them? Right now I use a jekyll & hyde, and i the hyde side, and it cleans up real nice. i'm just contemplating something a little better as I've heard some amazing things about the pedals I mentioned previously as well as the fulldrive. basically, if it can't get close to metal or harder rock territory, then I probably won't waste my time.

With tha gain maxed out and the boost too there is quite a lot of gain. I would not advise this pedal for tight metal or hardrock sounds. Doesn't have that definition and punch on the max gain settings. I'm thinking a different pedal might be better for you. EDIT: Just checked it, and no, the fulldrive will not do metal. Decent hard rock tones though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members theGhost Posted November 26, 2009 Members Share Posted November 26, 2009 oh ok. thanks for the advice. i'll probably end up going with the mudhoney for bluesy/fuzzy stuff and the box of rock for tight stuff. the box of rock sounds great on the clips on their website, and I have heard it in person and was impressed. however, the clips on their website for the box of metal was not impressive at all. it sounded too scooped and not very defined like the box of rock.

Members amarr1 Posted November 26, 2009 Members Share Posted November 26, 2009 If you have your amp cooking at high volumes, I bet pushing it with the fulldrive would be awesome. After all, mostly all metal players use tube screamers. Also, nice score dawg, I really want one but am not into the tube screamerish mid hump. I guess I should just check it out.

Members Ming Chow Posted November 26, 2009 Members Share Posted November 26, 2009 Happy NPD!!! I love my FD2. Hasn't seen much use, as of late. Still great pedal though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
