I like this method of comparison because it's quick, and you know every pedal is getting the exact same input (so the guitarist isn't accidentally strumming harder or softer on one pedal versus the others. .)

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

That's my reasoning!

@bthalko 4 года назад

No contest on this one - The Glove sounds the best and is also the cheapeset. EHX knocks one out of the park yet again.

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

It's the one I'll keep, definitely.

@blizzard03 4 года назад

Jesus man, I'm following you for a long while now. The fact that your channel did not blow up yet is BEYOND me. Such an informative and clever revies and demos. You present the gear to the PEOPLE, not to the brands, that is so cool and refreshing. Keep up the good work, you helped me a lot in my gear shopping! :)

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

I "present the gear to the PEOPLE, not to the brands" - that's a great way to put it! Thank you!

@elonmush4793 4 года назад

Worth noting: The OCDs can take higher volts than standard 9V for increased headroom. The Glove has an internal switch for a power charge which makes higher volts out of your standard 9 volts - but don't plug anything higher in it! For a pedal in this price range it is incredible.

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

Ah yes! Dammit. I forgot to mention this. And to demo the v2's Enhanced Bypass mode too...

I genuinely never comment on YT videos, but your in depth comparisons have enabled me to make some very satisfying purchase decisions. Where all other videos just demo pedals (with the hope of either selling them or being sent more free stuff to ‘review’), your videos offer the proper insight and balanced opinion guitarist want. Plus, excellent music; I find myself humming your riffs days after watching. I honestly look forward to seeing, and hearing, whatever comes next. Keep up the amazing work!

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

@IgaGearDemos 4 года назад

Different unity volume between V1.4 and V2 is caused by impedance issues. If you put the V1.4 first in the chain, it’ll be much louder. The V2 fixed this issue with the new buffer so it doesn’t matter where you put it anywhere in the chain.

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

Ah! Interesting. Thanks.

@IgaGearDemos 4 года назад

The Pedal Bored I have the V1.3 and have to crank the volume to 3 o clock to get unity. I use free the tone switching system, once I put in the chain the volume drop drastically.

@kosmicwizard 4 года назад

I like the od glove the most of these 4 pedals. And I think I can explain why it sounds like the the 2.0 while coming out 2 years earlier. To my ears the 1.0 or 1.1 whatever the first one was called had more mids with the 1.2-1.4 they scooped the mids, which is why the bottom and the highs are so huge! Then they based the 2.0 on the 1.0 and that is why it has differences from the 1.4 and yet sounds like the od glove. The Oh Sea Demon was based on the 1.4 and so that is why it sounds like that pedal. Cheers.

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

Ah! That would definitely explain it, yes! Should have got an original to compare...

@dancrowe7860 4 года назад

Thanks for the comparison! Excellent, as always. I'm blown away by how well the Glove by EHX stands up to the OCDs. Gotta go hit Reverb before the used ones are all gone!

@GabrielVelasco 4 года назад

+1 for the electro~harmonix OD Glove. EHX definitely knows what they're doing. It seems to be a better V2 than the V2.

@erictoniaschwab1009 4 года назад

0:44 “cork sniffing tone monsters.” 😆😂. That just made my day. PB, I love that you demo both pedals that cost more and are considered top shelf and other ones that are more folks like me who don’t have a lot of disposable income. And you’re not afraid to call it down the middle. Thank you. And I’m totally getting the Glove. I’ve got a couple OD’s I’m not using at home and the glove is 67.50 at guitar center.

"a boomy mess" i was laughing out loud. EHX Glove sounds great! I have a OCD Fulltone V2 and finally i have no more headache if the V1.4 would be any better, from Fulltone the V2 is the right one for me, thank you! i still wish i had compared it to a Friedman BE-OD before buying.

@jaybird8748 2 года назад

first class shoot out. flawless. and it descended into chaos the way it should with four OD pedals, well done and thanks!

@gonzoengineering4894 4 года назад

Went in for strings and saw The Glove sitting on the shelf for 40 bucks. Didn't google it, didn't try it, didn't think twice. The pedal needed a loving home and I needed an overdrive. It hasn't been off my board since. Was just thinking about getting an OCD before this video showed me I already have the best version

@thesociophobe8425 4 года назад

From what I could find out the OD Glove was based on or closer to version 2.0 of the OCD. For me the Glove sounded better in my set up until I ran the OCD V2.0 at 18v, then it gained a slight advantage. Personally I found the Glove better at higher distortion, but at lower gain the OCD was more musically useful, nicer harmonic overtones.

@thejamnasium6447 2 года назад

you know there's an internal switch in the glove that makes it also run at 18v, yes? that's the secret trick of the glove

@thesociophobe8425 2 года назад

@@thejamnasium6447 yes, did know, ran it in 18volt mode...but there is a difference between genuine 18volt and rails, I no longer use the OCD but it did sound better...very close but not the same.

I've owned a V1 OCD and a EHX The Glove. They are practically identical in terms of live use, generally I preferred the Original OCD but the Glove like I saw was so close. I think the Original OCD stacked better and was a little more transparent but yeah. The video was almost exactly what I thought it would be. Keep it up though, I get stupid excited whenever you drop a video :-) Best pedal reviewer on RU-vid sir!

@ThePedalBored 4 года назад

Thanks! I defer to the greater reviewers, like Knobs, AndyDemos, Living Room Demos, but it's nice to be thought of in the same company. And yes, the 'in live use' thing is where the differences become much less significant.
