So I decided to do a run of the ultimate OCD: a Custom Shop offering with a few circuit tweaks using 2 x Mosfets plus 2 x Germanium diodes, and one hell of a beautiful paint job... Metallic Teal with a chrome undercoat! This beauty morphs between blues and greens depending on the light and angle. And what would the ultimate OCD be without a Blue LED? The sound? Great definition, more tube-like feel, a bit wider dynamic range, more sustain, and a more focused single-note tone. And as with all Fulltone pedals... 100% Built in the USA.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fulltone USA","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":49471549505838,"sku":"CS-OCD-Ge-1","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"B-Stock","offer_id":49471549538606,"sku":"OCD Ge-B","price":199.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0845\/8652\/9070\/files\/OCD_GE_Web.png?v=1727112409","url":"https:\/\/www.fulltoneusa.mom\/products\/ocd-germanium","provider":"Fulltone USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
