Fulltone GT-500 F.E.T. Booster/Distortion, Brand New Old Stock (NOS)

GT-500 F.E.T. Booster/Distortion, Brand New Old Stock (NOS)

The Fulltone GT-500 is a truly unique overdrive pedal. There are two independent channels - a cool feature to say the least - but what really sets this stompbox apart is the unassuming toggle situated in the middle of the pedal. This toggle on the GT-500 lets you choose the signal path - place the Booster in front of or behind the Distortion channel to create your own custom distortion. For discerning guitarists on the quest for the ultimate distortion tones, the GT-500 is a perfect choice!

Long-lasting pots
Fulltone's custom-made brass-shaft pots are among the strongest and smoothest feeling pots available. These amazing pots are mounted to the interior PCB board via a proprietary "thru-PCB" method rather than having the pot be secured by the pot terminals, drastically reducing pot-related failure. This method keeps Fulltone pedals up and running for the duration of your playing days. Plus, this eliminates the need for a bunch of jumper wires, keeping your tone as pure as humanly possible.

Who uses Fulltone?
The list of Fulltone fans reads like a who's who of guitar heroes. Both Ron Wood and Keith Richards have Fulltone gear in their touring rigs, as does Nigel Tufnel from the legendary British metal band Spinal Tap, and Boston bad-boys Joe Perry and Tom Hamilton. Punk/rockabilly mainstay Reverend Horton Heat is a Fulltone convert. Other notable Fulltone users include Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard, Jack Bruce of Cream, perennial alt rocker Lou Reed, and Tom Petty along with Heartbreaker Mike Campbell.
