NPD: Fulltone Full-Drive 3
Picked this up from Christchurch RS today. Ordered in by the very helpful Diane (hope I've got her name right).
These are my sort of tones.

Still sitting on my desk... Was a long drive home and there's two kids to settle. Will give it a good work-out tomorrow.

Sorry, what's the DRRI?Cdog wrote:Sounds really nice thru the DRRI
Think they're the same price. Not sure. RS has this one at $239 right now.Reg18 wrote:Sounds really nice, are these more expensive than the Fulltone V2?
As a rule I'd rather get the sound through the amp but it seems the spectrum of what can be achieved with one volume control and a single channel valve amp is either clean-to-overdriven or overdriven-to-nice lead sound. Always seems necessary to add a pedal in those situations but most I've tried seem harsh.Conway wrote:I thought you didn't like pedals Molly???
Don't need an overdrive with the Boogie or Splawn because they've got it all covered but what I'm looking for is a very dynamic, low wattage valve amp that's as simple and reliable as an anvil. The crunch channel on the Boogie gets most of the way there I suppose but it's a tank of a thing (f'k knows what they make them from). Might flick it on.
Anyway, the pedal seems to have what I want so it's a keeper.

Whereas I consider them basically a clean boost.Molly wrote:I suspect not. I think of Tubescreamers as high-gain...
Yeah didn't see anything in that vid that would interest the high gain crowd. Sounded good, but not high gain.
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.
