Fulltone Full-Drive2 v2 Overdrive Pedal - Used

• Dimensions : 4.45"W x 4.2"D x 2.5"H
• 16 gauge cold rolled steel enclosure.
• Based around the desirable JRC4558 chip and 1990’s Full-Drive circuit, with 2 toggle switches for many more sonic options.
• 30% smaller than the FD2-MOS, 15% smaller than the FD3 at only 4.45" wide x 4" deep.

2 Footswitches

• Left ON/OFF footswitch : True-Bypass switching with exclusive Fulltone “Anti-Pop” circuit.
• Right “Channel select” footswitch : switches between Overdrive 1 or Overdrive 2, each with individually adjustable Volume and Drive knobs.
• 16 gauge cold rolled steel chassis with easy battery access via 2 thumbscrews.
• 9-18VDC operation, extremely green circuit only pulling 10mA of current.

2 Toggle Switches to Access the Many Clipping Options

left 3-Position Switch

• Comp-Cut : removes clipping diodes, not a clean boost because it can distort the opamp.
• Flat Mids : a late 1990’s Fulltone invention that feeds signal back on to the clipping diodes removing the Mid-hump.
• Vintage : traditional 90's Full-Drive slightly asymmetrical clipping.

Right 3-Position Switch

• Wide : combines Mosfets & Schottky Diodes for more clarity, less compression, a more Dmble-like sound.
• Standard : traditional 90's FD2 slightly asymmetrical.
• Half-Clipped : another Fulltone exclusive, only clips the top waveform for extreme clarity, feel, and touch like you've never experienced!

Explanation of Drive 2 “channel.”

• Think of it as the "More" Channel...
• Engaging the DRIVE 2 footswitch brings in the DRIVE 2 knob, allowing you to add distortion (in addition) to what's selected on the Drive 1 knob.
• At the same time, the pedal jumps from the (pedal’s main, large) VOLUME knob level setting to a higher level selected on the Drive 2 Volume (mini-knob.)

Practical Uses

• Use as a volume Booster (same Distortion setting, only louder) : Set DRIVE 2 knob to "0" and set Drive 2 Volume mini-knob to taste
• Use as a higher Gain lead tone with Volume Boost : set Drive 2 knob anywhere above "0" and Drive 2 Volume mini-knob to taste. Ideally you set Drive 1 for your lower-distortion sounds and Drive 2 for the higher distortion sound…effectively giving you 2 pedals.
