Review of fulltone fatboost from Stratman 9/11 forum giveaway

[theodie]

Here is my review of the Fulltone fatboost as promised. The pedal features knobs for volume, tone, and drive. The sound of the pedal is subtle yet sweet. The fat boost dosent fully take over your sound at all, it just ads a little fatness to your sound. The notes sound a tad bit warmer and rounder with this pedal. It seems to have more of an effect on leads and single notes than chords. The pedal also features a drive knob. When the drive knob is turned up it gives you a vintage yet blusey kind of distortion. The pedal can be used as a volume boost, vintage overdrive pedal, or a fatboost. it is quite a versatile pedal. Its not a bad little pedal. Thank you Mr, Stratman!!!!

Your awfully generous, since school started I haven't been on quite as much, but how are you giving away hundreds of dollars worth of gear?

It's Stratman... if you know a little bit about this man's fine collection it explains a lot.

It;s cool, innit? I had a custy at GC with a '72 Plexi who liked the tone of his amp and guitar fine already but wanted VERY slight od and a whole lot more TONE. This did it and he couldn't have been happier.

I think some fulltone pedal's tone can change depending on the amperage of the power supply... does this one do that? The difference was really apparent with a Fulldrive.
