The Fulltone OCD v1.4 is a limited Custom Shop recreation of one of the most sought-after versions of the classic OCD overdrive pedal. Faithfully built to the original v1.4 specification, this edition recreates the hand-wired circuit, component selection, and layout of the version that established the OCD as a landmark boutique overdrive.
Fulltone has carefully sourced the appropriate components and reproduced the original circuit without modernizing or simplifying the design. The result is the familiar dynamic, amp-like OCD response with exceptional touch sensitivity, fuller bass, an open high end, and a reduced midrange emphasis.
Faithful v1.4 Recreation
The OCD v1.4 is designed as a part-for-part recreation of the original circuit rather than a modern interpretation. Its response changes naturally with your picking dynamics, allowing the pedal to move from responsive, lightly driven tones to powerful overdrive as you play harder.
The v1.4 voicing is characterized by:
- Dynamic, amp-like overdrive
- Exceptional touch sensitivity
- Fuller low-end response
- Open, articulate high frequencies
- Reduced midrange hump
- Natural compression and sustain
- Strong interaction with playing dynamics
Original Hand-Wired Design
This Custom Shop edition uses the original hand-wired board design and faithfully follows the v1.4 circuit layout. Fulltone has focused on reproducing the components and construction of the original rather than incorporating later circuit updates.
For players who appreciate vintage-style boutique pedal construction and classic OCD tones, the result is a particularly authentic version of the original design.
Limited Custom Shop Edition
Only 500 units of the Fulltone OCD v1.4 are being produced. This is intended as a final production run, with no restock planned after the available units are sold.
