Originally introduced in 2004, the OCD became known for its distinctive response, natural dynamics, and ability to interact exceptionally well with both single-coil and humbucking pickups.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V2 incorporates several important circuit improvements while retaining the characteristic OCD tone and feel. Its updated input stage, output buffer, and selectable bypass modes provide greater dynamics, improved sustain, and more consistent performance in complex pedalboard signal chains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTouch-Sensitive MOSFET Overdrive\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OCD was among the first overdrive pedals to use \u003cstrong\u003eMOSFETs as clipping devices\u003c\/strong\u003e, contributing to its distinctive dynamic response. The circuit reacts naturally to picking intensity, producing more gain and saturation when played aggressively while cleaning up when the strings are played softly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis makes the OCD particularly effective for players who use their \u003cstrong\u003epicking dynamics and guitar volume control\u003c\/strong\u003e as an integral part of their sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eClass-A JFET Input Stage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe V2 features a \u003cstrong\u003eClass-A configured 2N5457 JFET input section\u003c\/strong\u003e, increasing the input impedance to \u003cstrong\u003e1 MΩ\u003c\/strong\u003e. This improves the pedal's interaction with different pickups and provides greater sensitivity and dynamic range with both single-coil and humbucking guitars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEnhanced Bypass \u0026amp; True Bypass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn internal switch allows you to choose between \u003cstrong\u003eTrue Bypass\u003c\/strong\u003e and Fulltone's \u003cstrong\u003eEnhanced Bypass™\u003c\/strong\u003e modes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnhanced Bypass uses Class-A configured switching FETs to help preserve the dynamics and tonal response of the guitar signal throughout a complex pedalboard. The output buffer also reduces loading on the OCD's clipping stage, contributing to improved sustain and preservation of overtones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Enhanced Bypass mode, the OCD can remain an active part of the signal chain even when the overdrive itself is disengaged, helping maintain a responsive and consistent feel across long cable runs and multiple pedals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFulltone OCD V2 overdrive pedal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic, touch-sensitive MOSFET clipping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrom transparent low-gain drive to saturated overdrive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly responsive to picking dynamics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks effectively with single-coil and humbucker pickups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass-A 2N5457 JFET input stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 MΩ input impedance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved dynamics and pickup interaction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated output buffer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelectable True Bypass or Enhanced Bypass™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnhanced Bypass preserves dynamic response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps maintain consistent tone in complex pedalboard setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproved sustain and overtone response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for natural interaction with the guitar's volume control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOCD V2 Version Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFulltone has made a number of small circuit revisions to the OCD over its production history.
