Fulltone PLS PlimSoul Overdrive and Distortion Pedal, Main
zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Provides either a "Soft-Clipped" bluesy overdrive or a "Hard-Clipped" style distortion plus its own unique sustain and dynamic in-betweens.

For many, many years you've basically had 2 choices for your Overdrive;/Distortion pedals... You could either get "Soft-clipped" Bluesy, slightly compressed, (Toob Screemer, FD2, etc etc etc etc etc etc) type Overdrive pedals... or you could get "Hard-Clipped" (OCD, Distortion+, Boss DS-1, etc etc etc etc etc etc) type Distortion pedals. What if there was a pedal that offered both?

There is now... Fulltone PlimSoul

PlimSoul has those Softer Bluesey, Compressed capabilities but also has a Second Stage that you can roll in with the turn of a little dial to add that firmer, crunchier, British output tube style Distortion! What's more is you not only hear and feel it... you can SEE the pedal reacting to your every mood via a firey LED that glows brighter and dimmer depending on how distorted it is and how hard you're hitting it.

Touch sensitive? Doesn't get any better. Clean up with the guitar's volume control? More than any, yes, even more than the OCD. Good with Humbuckers as well as Single coils? Yep. Does it play nice with other pedals? Yes, it has an Ideal 500K Input Impedance, ideal super low 10K output impedance.

How dirty does it get? VERY dirty, the dirtiest pedal I make...but gets very clean as well.

Can I blend the 2 types of Distortion? Yes, and you can have ONLY Soft clipped or ONLY Hard Clipped :)

In a Nutshell? Extremely good Sustain/Feedback qualities, just the right amount of Mids, bottom, Great touch sensitivity, dynamics, and all those in-between shades available… read more when you know how to use your guitar's volume control. read less

High satisfaction for me.
Sound
If you are looking for something in that area between OD and distortion this pedal can provide it. I was using a TS808 (re-issue) but looking for just a little bit more than the TS808 could provide.....I found what I was looking for in this pedal.
Features
The ability to blend the 2nd stage (additional OD) is very nice feature. Wish they would have included a power supply.
Ease of Use
Easy to use right from the start.
Quality
First Fulltone pedal I have owned - solid construction....no concerns.
Value
Wish it was priced below $150 (online pricing).
Manufacturer Support
Unknown. Have not needed to contact Fulltone.
The Wow Factor
Fits my needs. Depends on what you are looking for.
