Achieve natural, tubelike drive with the Full-Drive 2 V2. Loaded with the coveted JRC4558 chip and Fulltone’s 1990s Full-Drive circuit, this pedal juices your amp with classic overdriven textures. One footswitch places the pedal in and out of your effects chain, while a second switches between overdrive channels 1 and 2, each with individually adjustable Volume and Drive knobs. But if you think the Full-Drive 2 V2 limits you to these two options, you’re mistaken. Call up everything from vintage overdriven warmth to ’90s-style asymmetrical clipping using twin toggle switches. Fine-tune your tone by tweaking the Full-Drive 2’s variable 9–18-volt operation. Searching for a multifaceted dirt box?
Full-Drive 2 V2: How the controls interact
The Drive 2 footswitch brings the Drive 2 knob into play, which adds distortion to what’s selected on the Drive 1 knob. At the same time, the pedal jumps from the (main) Volume knob level setting to a higher level set on the Drive 2 Volume mini-knob.
Left 3-position toggle:
- Comp-cut is a semi-clean boost that removes the clipping diodes.
- Flat Mids evokes the late ’90s, re-feeding your signal into the clipping diodes to eliminate the mid hump.
- Vintage was inspired by the asymmetrical clipping of the traditional ’90s Full-Drive.
Right 3-position toggle:
- Wide combines MOSFETs and Schottky diodes, for increased clarity, less compression, and a more boutique-like sound.
- Standard evokes the traditional ’90s Full-Drive’s asymmetrical clipping.
- Half-clipped only clips the top waveform for extreme clarity, feel, and touch.
