honestly, the fulldrive is my favorite overdrive pedal i've ever used. occasionally it's not EXACTLY what i'm looking for, but more often than not, it rises to every occasion. it's super transparent, gets super loud when it needs to (none of that hitting distortion and getting quieter nonsense), it's true bypass, fully analog, boost function rules. i've had it for years, and it's one pedal i will NEVER get rid of, that is, unless i totally give up playing music.
the difference is, the fulldrive rules and the gt-500 is not as good. somewhere along the path of them trying cram more options onto the gt-500 they sacrificed some tone. also, it's a different circuit entirely than the fulldrive and more of a "distortion" than an "overdrive".
the little switch in the bottom left, is that an effect loop switch...?? i think i can make out a "flex" on it...
that equalizer is one of the most Underrated pedals i've come across, it should've been the first thing i bought after the tuner pedal. (especially being in a band with multiple guitars)

it is an effects loop called the flex loop. my friend matt makes them, it's pretty brilliant. there's 2 holes drilled on each side (you can see the slug fillers on the bottom), and you can move around all the jacks to tailor it to fit whatever layout you need. that eq was actually modded with the "sniper mod" by tonejam fx. it basically just cleans up the sound a lot and makes the eq swings a little more dramatic so the pedal has a wider range.
