Just want some opinions, what did you like about them, what didn't you like. I could only find one clip of the Fulldrive on one setting. I found quite a few clips of the OCD on different settings and using the volume to clean it up and it sounded sweet. I'm wanting some good classic rock overdriven tones and country tones.

the FII is an overdrive in the Tubescreamer vein, with a bit of that mid hump, but very well built, with smooth tone and of course the boost feature, and a toggle for flat mids/ vintage tone.

the OCD is more transparent, but with gobs of gain on tap. It seems like an extension of the amp, rather than an added pedal. I'm guessing that the circuit is more along the lines of a Klon, or the Maxon 820.

I have a FD2 and love it. I understand that it is a big part of Keith Urban's tone, if that's what you're after (from your sig). The Comp Cut mode makes this pedal extremely useful as a clean boost that can be colored to taste with the tone knob. The comp cut and flat mids mode are very useful across a range of amps (6L6 and 6V6 Fenders, EL-84 Class A amps, etc.). The vintage mode is like a Tubscreamer in tone, perhaps a bit smoother and with a bit more low end by all accounts, so it sounds particularly nice with BF and SF Fender amps. The only knock I;ve heard against the FD2 is that it seems too smooth for some tastes, but I love the smooth rich tones it delivers.

I agree with Curly. If you're a single coil player, I'd choose the FDII or the OCD.
If you're primarily a humbucker player, pass on the FDII and just get the OCD.
That's just my opinion, because humbuckers don't always sound good with that clean/distortion mix type OD pedal. Humbuckers always sound better with a linear clean boost that gets naturally gainy.

If you go with the FD II wait for the 10 Year Anniversary MOSFET version to come out. Should be out in a few weeks.

Does the OCD lack low end balls or is it just me? My friend Steve owns this pedal and I've not really adapted to it..
