Had the weight but also the mid-range movement and upper saw effect. Spectacular sound. And, especially good as there are good cheap clones of the OCD, that I like better than it. Like the EHX Glove.

    The thing is what really want it to be able to go from extreme Doom fuzzy distortion back all the way to vintage blues and back again with ease. So what you actually need is a RAT and a bluesy overdrive stacked. Everything else is a farse even the muff isn't optional as it can't clean up.
