Members blackba1 Posted December 8, 2007 Members Share Posted December 8, 2007 I am looking for an overdrive mainly for my Vox AC30CC1. I am currently using a Digitech Bad Monkey, but it sounds a bit synthetic. I would like the pedal to work if possible with my fender Amps as well as they all share a pedalboard in my music room. My fender's are a '67 Bassman and a '69 Bandmaster reverb. I am mainly a strat guy, but lately I have been playing LP's about 1/3 of the time. So what would be better for what I am looking for an OCD or Zendrive? There are 4 versions of the OCD now, but I can't find on Fulltone's site what they changed between them....

Members pbone Posted December 8, 2007 Members Share Posted December 8, 2007 What kind of sounds are you looking for? I have an OCD v.3 on my Orange, and I use it as a semi-clean boost to light/mild overdrive, and it does it very well. Haven't tried out the zen drive though.

Members blackba1 Posted December 8, 2007 Author Members Share Posted December 8, 2007 I am looking for a low-medium gain overdrive without the mid boost of a typical tubescreamer (my maxon ODs cover that well enough). I have a 3 knob mosferatu that I like alot, considering getting a 4knob version. I hear the wait is less than it used to be, but still 6 months I mainly play classic rock, alternative, etc. Both the Vox and Fenders can be on the bright side, so a darker Overdrive would probably be more what I am looking for. I just don't want that typical Tubescreamer mid hump. The Mi audio blues boy deluxe did a decent job, but I moved it over to use with my Fender champ....

Members pbone Posted December 8, 2007 Members Share Posted December 8, 2007 Yeah, the OCD is probably one of your best bets then. It has a tone knob that works very well on it, and has a very high range of gain settings because of the Low Pass and High Pass switch. Low Pass = clean boost to mild overdrive; High Pass = light overdrive to heavy distortion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
