'full-pitched' evolved from the Middle English use of 'full' and 'pitched', which were used to describe sounds or tones that were complete or at their maximum intensity.
Initially, it meant 'having a complete tone', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'having a complete or maximum degree of pitch or intensity'.
