Fulltone GT-500 GT500 Overdrive Distortion Pedal

WWW.ProGuitarShop.com - The Fulltone GT-500 is a discrete FET Hi-Gain Distortion and Overdrive Booster in one enclosure. It's like having two pedals in one, which gives you endless combinations. The Hi-Gain section has Volume and Distortion knobs plus minipots for Bass, Mid and Highs. The Booster side has Volume and Overdrive knobs plus mini-pots for Bass and Highs. Unlike any other pedal, the GT-500 contains 5 FET's, 2 MOSFETS's, and 3 transistors. The sound is verry amp-like with tons of sustain, even at low volume. Turn down the guitar's volume and listen to it clean up!

Unfortunately, the audio on this video is compressed, so you can't really hear the volume difference from the bypass signal when engaging the boost and/or distortion. I have the Gt-500, and the volume difference is HUGE. I have to make the boost section my clean sound and the distortion section my dirty sound in order to make it useable for shows. It sounds good, but I just can't see it being useable as a boost and distortion along with the true amp sound...

Any video will be compressed but Youtube likes to muck around with the audio even more. Check out the original video on our website. Thanks!

fuck metal zone up the ass,

it sucks so hard. fuck boss in general,

cheap ass parts into way pricey pedals.

even though the gt-500 is more expensive,

it's quality rises faaar and beyond any boss pedal. Sure if it was a modded boss than we can talk, but as far as out of the box,

boss can't do shiiittt

I sincerely agree with you minibikedude04

First off i would like to say Fulltone claims it has 9 F.E.T's not 5. its got 2 MOSFETS. but the real beauty of this pedal is that the Dist side has an inductor driven mid pot. the real tone is all in the mid scoop. If you think the OCD sounds better than the GT your mistaken. I work at Guitar center and I sat this pedal next to the OCD today. You can get the GT to sound EXACTLY like the OCD. Except you can tell the OCD is a little muddier. This pedal in my experience is AMAZING.

@harryflocyberman a good, 50W or so amp head cranced! ;)

@TheUltraworld both are equally as good

@bethchilcoat This one seems to be more versatile as far as tone goes.

I heard some guy use this pedal live with a riviera amp it sounded good for all kinds and styles of rock he was trying to emulate but being critical as I usually am about tone, it had a artificial processed tone especially when the notes were fading out if you know what I mean, but not super noticeable, I guess for the money it's not bad, computer speakers do not do this pedal justice, it sounds a hell of a lot better live. I need a good distortion pedal any suggestions?

greetings Sir... is it okay to use any adaptor brand?

[mingoos4294]

PGS~~, which one has more gain? The vox satchurator or the gt-500? :)

[JoshFazzz]

Its not really an equal comparison with this pedal and the OCD. This is a distortion and the OCD is a overdrive. Different tones and sounds.

[bethchilcoat]

So this vs. the Jekyll & Hyde - what are people's thoughts?

[TheUltraworld]

The OCD sounds much better
