Who here owns (or has owned) an OCD?

I use a Barber LTD for light to medium overdrive and I love it. I always seem to come back to it. Great pedal, no question.

But until now I've been dissatisfied with the heavy overdrives/distortion boxes out there. And it's not like I've tried a lot of them, but the ones I have tried never quite did it for me. So I picked up an OCD around the beginning of the year and the more I mess with this thing the more I love it. I'm sure I'll end up buying other pedals just for the hell of it but there's no good reason for it. This thing just rocks.

So who's had an OCD? What do you think?
 
I've never owned one but telecaster911 sent me his to try last year. I didn't dig it as much as I thought and ended up buying a Barber UnLTD which gets the LTD sounds plus some more high gain sounds as well. Not super distortion though. And I just replaced it with a Wampler Pinnacle Deluxe but I'm keeping the UnLTD for something else.
 
I had one for a while. It was very good, but I prefer the Keeley-modded Blues Driver and the Dirty Little Secret for that type of sound. It's definitely up there with them, though.
 
I think it's, in my experience, the single greatest OD for the price, bar none. Completely organic, very real feeling...versatile, and really, a completely solid value for what it does, at the quality it does it.

You've had that Keeley for as long as I've known you. That thing sounds great.

I'm interested in the DLS and the Suhr Riot but I don't need either of them. I've never tried a DLS though. What version do you have?

I'm not that sure. It's purple. Maybe the latest? I got it new about a year ago... so v4? It does that overdriven JMP thing fantastically.
 
i would like one. i own a catalyst and wish i had never traded my FD II. i love fulltone pedals.

I have a Joyo Ultimate Drive (OCD copy) and a Joyo US Dream (Suhr riot copy) and I love both of them. I had an older DLS years ago and I prefer the OCD YMMV.
 
I have one it sounds good but after it's on my board for awhile, it starts to annoy me, then off it comes for awhile.
