well my guitar teacher owns two of these pedals and they are pretty interesting. from what i understand the pedal is supposed to give your amp that old marshall type of amp sound. sounds great when you run distorion pedals with it. pretty pricy though

*AMPS....if you've ever owned a GREAT amp, like a Marshall 18 watt, a VOX AC15, a Marshall JTM45 and if you have a place where you can crank them up loud, then you know what I'm talking about...

Smack a power chord and you (not only) hear the fundamental notes...but you get (count 'em) 4, 5, even 6 additional overtones ringing into a feedback... notes that you can whistle if your ear is good enough! Think; Zep's "Ocean," "Custard Pie," Classic tones including James Gang, the Beatles, AC/DC, FREE., etc.

Back off the guitar's volume and there are a dozen great other sounds at your fingertips... Clean, spanky sounds, with all the highs and lows still intact. And a Tele still sounds like a Tele, a Les Paul like a Les Paul.

PEDALS (until now) just can't hold a candle to what a good amp can do if you are really picky. You not only lose all the touch sensitivity, but forget about those complex Harmonics. (For me) It's always been somewhat of a compromise using Overdrive pedals... until now. Ladies and Gentleman, I am proud to introduce the Fulltone OCD. I made this pedal for me, but I think you might like it too.

Hmmm...

I see that three of them recently sold on ebay for $135...

Not bad for a handmade in USA pedal...

I just might get one when I get an Epiphone Valve Jr...;)

They´re OK. If you ever need experts for BOOtique pedals, go here,

www.musictoyz.com and go to the forum. You´ll find a few OCD owners who´ll be able to tell you tons of stuff about it.

Seems to me that this pedal might very well transform a sterile distortion pedal into something that reacts just as a good tube amp should...

Put in front of a tube amp large or small, all the better...

I'm just guessing, but it's a fairly edcuated guess...
