Fulltone Pedals: Preserving a Legacy of Tone & Partnering with Jackson Audio

Fulltone has been a premium purveyor of pedals for more than 30 years, having opened their doors to critical acclaim in the early 1990s. After a short series of industry setbacks, Fulltone’s Mike Fuller found himself questioning the future of his company and the pedal world at large. Following a chance encounter with Jackson Audio and Jackson Ampworks cofounder Brad Jackson, a pedal partnership was born. NAMM 2024 marked the launch of the freshly reinvigorated Fulltone array, and Sweetwater had the pleasure of hosting both Brad Jackson and Mike Fuller for a comprehensive interview to discuss their respective legacies, how Jackson Audio is preserving iconic Fulltone designs, and the future of their endeavors.
