Fulltone OCD Overdrive Pedal
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- The Fulltone OCD is one of the nicest overdrives for getting an amp-like tone. The OCD features a simple 3 knob design offering gain, tone, and volume controls. The toggle switch changes the flavor of the tone and also gives you more or fewer mids depending on which way you set it. The OCD can work on both 9v and 18v for more headroom.

The 335 humbuckers sound Awesome, great tone and playing, very nice. Not only can you hear it, you can feel it.
I love the way you used splitscreen in this demo, well done I wish more people did that.
Love the OCD pedal...been using one for years...very natural amp like response with any setting. Can't get a bad tone from this baby!
The OCD has been my drive pedal of choice for over 10 years now.
I’ve tried others, sold them, and came back to the OCD.
And now the Germanium OCD is my favorite!
I just purchased an ocd in a ran down pawn shop in south Texas , best $20 I’ve spent in a while . Thanks for the video
$20 what a score 👍
That just sounds cool 👌
This review sold me on the pedal. Utilizing the volume knob in the demo was huge for me. Awesome playing and thanks for the upload.
2 years on, how did you get on with it?
ReservoirFrog it’s actually funny you ask, I just sold it! It was a fun pedal, a classic! It just didn’t play nice with my current setup. I’ve got some hot wound humbuckers and it was too shrilly for my taste. Single coils/paf style humbuckers and it’s a great drive for the money
Ethan Pelagalli Thanks - I just bought one off EBay. V1.5 for £95 English pounds. Good deal?
ReservoirFrog good deal! Considering they are typically listed for $95ish stateside, you’re golden when you factor in overseas shipping, import tax, and pound conversion rate!
@@ethanpelagalli Nice one, thanks! Waiting for it to arrive so I can pair it with my strat and tele :-)
I have a V 1.7. Best overdrive I have ever used. Running it at full 18 volts. Fantastic! Permanent fixture on my board now!
Me too version 1.7 is The Best
I have a v1.7 and it’s hands down the best drive pedal I’ve ever owned. I use a blues driver and soul food too, but when I want extra sauce there’s nothing like the OCD 🔥
I put this into the front end of my Marshall JCM ....drive all the way down....volume all the way up....tone to taste. Sounds freaking fantastic.
So you are essentially using it as a clean boost
@@hotman718 yes, you get plenty of boost without all that buzzy " bee in a beer can" tone.
Ordered this today for my Fender Blues Deluxe. Can’t wait to try it out.
The OCD is by far my favorite overdrive pedal ever. So damn good.
Love this Pedal. I will Never be without it. I have tried countless overdrive pedals, and this one is So Versatile and Sounds Amazing. Nice demo & playing Shane. - Michael Caz - NYC -
I agree Michael caz ! We love it down here in TX! 😁👍

Out of all the kids, the OCD is daddy's favorite! Great pedal, great demo! Thanks Shane!
That pedal sounds amazing! One of the best I've heard!
2:11 your signature riff🥰love dat riff
Hey guys, this guy literally made me buy this pedal and had to do a review of myself on my channel (I am a beginner, dont hate ) lol
Ocd perfect and versatile overdrive pedal one switch go for overdrive and one for heavy gain
that OCD is giving me GAS! great demo. cheers
I swear this and the tube screamer are the best pedals ever made
EHX SOUL FOOD, ACTUALLY HAS TONE, and its so cheap.
look at the new earth quaker devices plumes
I own tons of od pedals and need to tell you, the EHX SOUL FOOD pedal is a killer. It is the cheapest pedal on my board, and yet my favorite od pedal. My main rig is a Fender twin reverb amp, and strat with texas specials. I have the soul food at the end of my dirt and run every thing else through it. Keep it on all the time. LOVE IT
RLMUD I’ve got an Ocd but feel like it’s got a bit too much low end for me (also playing Texas specials). Picking up a soul food tomorrow can’t wait to try that out
RLMUD how do you use the soul food with an ocd? Do they do well together?
@@mtbright06 If you thought it has too much low end the soul food will definitely cut a lot of that out XD. Im thinking of getting the ocd because i want more low end lol. And I want a more gnarly distortion
Incredible demonstration!! like all those licks u was doing!!
Just got an OCD recently my Boss DS1 has been relegated to the pedal closet! Great review btw
Great review Shane, and some truly sweet playing, I think you do not really know how good your playing is. Find your reviews very well done.
Thank you Ray :-) Many thanks.
I use this magnificent pedal with the drive down real low. Great pedal.
Sounded awesome. I guess it's a classic for a reason.
Huge.
Nice Shane I run an OCD and a Soul Food into a Creme AC15. Does the trick. The OCD pots are so expressive as you demonstrate perfectly! I also use an 18v adapter which fattens it up a tad IMHO !!! Well played as always.
+1 on the Soul Food >OCD. I run a MXR micro amp in front of those two and it's a killer lead tone.
This is a great Overdrive. Killer tones. Sounds great.
Great demo sir.. ♥️🤘
Holy crap. This pedal is sooo great!
I use this with a broken up ac15 on LP with gain at 2 oclock, tone at 3 o'clock. It's an absolutely fantastic beast. You can run a TS into it to punch the mids and get all fuzzy.
That's what I do (but my OCD it's a clone)
As I always say, you are my go to reference for these sort of things, and as such, you have steered me towards a purchase...cheers! I need to get you on the payroll.
I have one, and started to hate it. Not a very warm sounding pedal, though Low Peak helped.
Then I sandwiched it, while building my pedalboard, between two buffered pedals (Tumus & OS-2), changed the input to 12 volts (OCD), and the love for it returned.
I've gone through a shameful amount of OD pedals & keep coming back to my OCD. Just wish it had a little less drive. Mine never gets set higher than 9 o'clock & is usually turned all the way down with volume dimed. The tone range is perfect as I usually have it somewhere in the middle.
I returned mine, it sounds great but it was getting lost in the mix too easily. Right now I'm digging the BB Preamp series
I had an OCD (liked it) but found I could dial in the same sound out of my BB Plus and it has the second channel that provides significantly more flexibility. I use the BB+ for my "modern/OCD" OD sound and my amp for vintage dirt. I sweeten both amp and BB+ with a TS 808 for some additional lead tone (push the mids). I also found the OCD sweet spot to be loud when bouncing between clean and OD
Gary Jinks Right on. That being said, I did like the way the OCD sounded. It just was not practical for me at the time when playing with a full band at church. I haven't tried the BB+, looks good with those extra options
Love mine, hard to beat imo😊🎶 thanks!
Well done gents!
Recent reviews have been great! Some class pedals 👌👌
Thanks mate :-) Cheers.
Put the ocd pedal before the amp, turn the amp drive all the way down, and the ocd pedal all the way up on drive. Makes for a sick metal tone. 🤘
killer tone through the Tokai
Thanks for your excellent demo! I like how you use all the settings and their range to give a good idea of its capability.
I agree with Heph333: I really like the character of the tone, but I also wish it had a bit wider clean-OD range. It gets raunchy very quickly on the drive knob, so I keep it between 8-10am for most stuff (roots rock, blues, folk-rock). I don't find anything higher than 1-2pm very useful, unless one plays metal perhaps--and the changes after that just seem to make things a bit muddier. The tone knob seems to boost the highs in a very subtle way and it also could've had more useful range (seems more like a "presence" control); the entire tone-sweep is easy not to notice at all unless you're listening attentively for it, but the overall tone is so good it doesn't seem to matter. I plug in any guitar in this and it sounds good. I went through a Tubescreamer, MojoMojo (my 2nd favorite w/other fine qualities the OCD doesn't have), and a Soul Food, before landing on the OCD as my main, go-to OD pedal. At least for now.
Sounds really good with drive at zero but a bit over the top for me once the drive level increases moving it much closer to a distortion pedal.
Ocd is a overdrive/distortion pedal
Try it on your clean channel
Thx Shane..got one for a gift i'm psyched!!
Excellent review Shane. Thanks
Thebest pedal of all ! Beats tube scream out of it
Half the guitar players I know have this pedal!
what about the other half what do they use
tube screamer
AND THE OTHER HALF CAN ACTUALLY PLAY!
Wow, really impressed. I'm normally sort of down on distortion pedals and prefer amp distortion, but that sounds great.
Holy crap I will never need another OD. Damn thing almost turns into a fuzz.
Yes, it could replace the OD and fuzz on my board.
Am instantly convienced about that, me too.
Man I love your demos!!!! This one is particularly awesome!!
Just got one... Should be awesome!
I need one of these just to have in my collection :-) Great sounding pedal. The Pedal Guys over in the UK did a video and had mentioned you have to be careful going to 18V even if it will take 18V. They did a comparison and I thought most of the pedals sounded "Thicker" on the standard 9V running them on 18V did give you more headroom but it thinned out the OD part a bit :-( Great Demo.
definetly thought that LP and HP stood for Low Pass and High Pass before watching this lol.
My go to overdrive ! 😁👍
I got this pedal for $2.12 thanks to amazon rewards :)
Another great review Shane :-)
Thanks Martin. :)
Only OD you need!
Oh and a Klon.
Delete your comment and buy a Friedman BE-OD
Are you running it through 9 or 18 volts?
It's already better than pretty much anything at 9 but 18 just takes it to another planet.
Have you heard of Supreme OD pedal?
Damn man sweet playing and awesome pedal, gonna have to pick this guy up
Nice work mate
this sounds 200% better than my ocd through my 65 drri.frankly I haven't found any dirt pedals that sound usable through it.maybe I need a super reverb.
I ya e a Drri the keeley modded tube screamer 9 or what is his red dirt pedal sounds amazing through them.
I'm not wild about the 'gain on full' tones, but everything else sounds great.
No one cares.
Been using my Joyo Ultimate Drive, getting really similar sounds for 1/5 the price! Even on the vintage dirty channel on my Peavey Bandit, gain on about 3 on the amp, solid state still sounds killer. Nice video as always, Shane.
Nice work.
Great demo. Thank you and well done
Pete Woodroffe Music
Very nice....one question to my ODC seems not to have so much drive...might have some problem? How to check ...thanks !
This really could have been a 20 minute video eh? Love the OCD and Plimsoul. Seems to work for Robin Trower also ;) Nice plaing man.
I've got a EHX OD Glove (ocd clone), cost half the price, not noisy like an OCD and smaller. Has an internal 9/18v switch too.
where would i go to order this?
if this if you don'
t mind telling me or sending a link.
Mo Dirt Amazon, eBay, Thomann, Andertons, GAK
to be honest, the OCD is built much better. EHX pedals can be very unreliable.
Sounds great! I think the OCD is the only real competition to the Tubescreamer. The Klon might be better, but is price-prohibitive. So, why don't I own one? Because the Mooer Hustle drive is voiced ever-so-slightly more treble, and therefore does my Vox Box sound just a tad more sizzling. But, I'll gladly admit the OCD would work for many more people than the Hustle- but, any way you slice it, the OCD is a monster- everything from mild crunch to almost fuzz- it's just such a perfect machine, ain't it?
Nevermind the awesome pedal and playing.
Where ya find that Kool Boston shirt?
How transparent is it? Like somewhere between a TS and a Klon?
Great video as always.
Just kidding, but i gotta say seeing a left handed demo of OCD tantalizes my OCD
Great vid, i have this ocd and i really fancy it.
Strat 69’ pickups, princeton reverb resissue (moded cab - 12” cannabis rex)
I have the Sweetwater Princeton like yours and the OCD works great with it. Also the Keely 4 knob compressor + really works well.
Great playing! I''ve got to ask you. Out of all the pedals you've tried what''s your favorite?
it's a famous pedal but I have one another which sounds really great so don't try to be fashioned ! choose the pedal you like
crikey thats a great pedal mate
love this pedal!! would you recommend this bad boy or save dough and get a Cool Cat?
This pedal sounds amazing. I'm torn between the Fulltone OCD, Joyo Vintage Overdrive, and the Nobles ODR-1. What do you guys think?
Blues drive too
Hey Shane: How would an Ibanez Tube Sceamer sound/work "cascading" or "stacking" into the OCD ? Should the Tube Screamer be first?
There are videos on this if you look. Personally it seems using the screamer as a boost into the OCD gives the best results, especially if you want to use it as a lead boost.
I've been waiting on you to do a vid on the OCD! Great job! What version of the pedal is this? Sounds like the only pedal I need!
Could someone explain to these guys they would sound better with the tone rolled off???
Then people would whinge about it not being up. After 2500 videos I hear it all and it's all personal choice. haha.
Fuzz or overdrive
try a mosky b-box there good for blues
Great review Shane... I think you just sold me one!
What are your thoughts on Soul Food by EH?
Good sounding pedal.how's the price?in USD.
You down with OCD? Yeah, you know me!
😂✅✅
@imsuckingwind wrong song
Sounds pretty good, where can I buy this gizmo?
Euryale Music Guitar Center, Sweetwater, Amazon/Ebay. :)
....following up on this would love to see an A/B vs your Plimsoul if you still have it! Thoughts on OCD vs PlimSoul?
First pedal I ever bought. Was trying out an American Standard Strat plugged into this surf green SC X2 that called out to me, and asked the sales guy for an OD pedal. He brought me this. Ended up leaving the store with all 3... lol. He gave me a massive deal on it- together they were LESS than what the Strat would normally cost by itself! Not about to argue with that! That Strat LOVES this pedal. Were you running it at 9 or 18 volts? Awesome playing by the way- you sounded fucking massive!
Now I just need a good tube amp to go with them. I'm most attracted to the Bass Breaker 15; Blues Deluxe; Super Sonic 60- or just about ANY amp Tone King makes, esp the original Falcon. They just GET the tone I like best- no fiddling or faffing about, just plug in, turn it up- and there it is!
Classic
Hi Shane how does this fulltone OCD compair to a fulltone soul bender II? Can you do a side by side?
How do they work with a orange dual terror?
Another great demo Shane ! I have an OCD, but have also started to take shine to a Sick As overdrive by Bondi Effects. Would love to know your opinion on both should you have one ? I have a Nash S-63, and about to take delivery of an Achillies Bassman (I have one of their Champs which I really like).
I know this is a bit late, but how would this pedal do for my little brother with a starter amp (I think it's a 1×8) and he wants to play some rock/Metal such as Avenged sevenfold.
WOULD YOU PREFFER THIS ONE OVER THE MOJO MOJO or BOSS OVERDRIVES?? SD-1.. OD-3.... TO PLAY OASIS, pearl jam, radiohead style of music... WITHOUT BUSTING THE BANK!
I hate my OCD again so I'm back for new settings. I'll trade it for Luke teo ds1's or something
You prefer this over the X-Drive ?
My favorit pedal too !!!!!!!!!!
How would the OCD differ from a Klon Clone?
Why Comic Sans, Why?
ocd?
Volumen, Drive, Tone
Yeah, I can't take this pedal seriously anymore. I've got more self respect than that
The fact it's in Comic Sans makes the pedals name all the more appropriate.
Overpriced Complusive Danger
And which version OCD is this???
What version??
Which version is this?
Great demo! Having demoed both OCD and Plimsoul, would you say there's anything the OCD can do that the Plimsoul cannot cover?
Thanks :) and . . . you did not run the single coils with the "HP" mode. This is the most ferocious sound that the OCD makes.
It would be best with your Tele and "HP" and a Deluxe Reverb. This is the biggest sound I have persobnally ever heard from any pedal in 30 years (although this is a relative truth). It has to do with the germaniums in the circuit board . Maybe give it a shot some day :)
