From their website:

"FullDrive2-Mosfet
Housed in a beautiful powder coated Blue 16ga. steel enclosure, the dual-channel FullDrive2 gives you the best of both worlds. The first channel is the "Overdrive Mode" capable of clean boost or non-compressed overdrive or choose light to medium softer overdrives all while retaining your guitar's original tone. The Tone knob is a very effective presence control that can smooth out or add upper harmonics. The second channel is the "Boost Mode" with its own separate distortion control for medium to higher gains with a more singing violin-like sustain!

In 2007, the FullDrive2, the most popular boutique overdrive ever made, and staple on many pedalboards for years, became the FullDrive2-Mosfet, sounding better than ever before.

One mini-toggle lets you choose between a "Vintage" FD2 sound with mid-heavy tones that cut through the mix and "FM (flat-mids)" for a more natural, transparent sound that works awesome with a Strat's neck pickup.

The other mini-toggle lets you choose between Mosfet and Normal clipping modes. Normal mode is even more asymmetrical, sweeter and more open, with no "blanket" over the sound.

And, of course, the FD2-Mosfet features super-bright LEDs (borrowed from the OCD) and Fulltone's exclusive "no-thump/no-pop" True Bypass switches. We are the first to offer a switchable "Boost" Channel in an overdrive and manufacture our own Super-Duty 3PDT footswitch allowing True-Bypass plus LED.

Chosen by Guitar Player Magazine as "Best Stompbox of 2006" and as one of the all-time top 50 effects ever!"

"New CS FD3!
In celebration of Fulltone's 20 years as the world's premiere boutique pedal manufacturer, we are releasing a signed, limited edition Fulldrive called the "FD3"!

Features include:

real NOS JRC4558D chip..not the current production NJM4558
*has the Fulltone-exclusive Order switch which places the Boost either before or after the Overdrive section of the circuit:
After takes whatever sound you have set and increases the Volume so you pop out of the mix.
Before pounds the input of the Overdrive channel and increases the distortion, not really the volume...more like the FD2.
Two modes, toggle selectable:
"90's" original FD2 voicing. Transparent? NOT! Mid, rich Mids, Color, beautiful color. You want transparent? Wrong mode.
"Wide Asym"...that's Wide Asymmetrical, for a beautiful, chimey, more open sound.
A completely independent, discrete JFET Clean Boost with a Volume control and a unique mini-knob controlling Germanium Diode "Limiting" function that has to be felt to be really appreciated! Clockwise on this knob takes out the strident, irritating spikes that occur with other clean boosts when you hit the strings hard....absolutely gorgeous feature destined to be a classic and might just show up as a micro sized pedal called "2B."
This Boost circuit does not invert the signal like most clean-boosts and can be used with or without the overdrive section of the pedal.
Icing on the cake? The housing is about 20% smaller than the traditional Fulldrive2"
