Members derek_32999 Posted June 28, 2006 Members Share Posted June 28, 2006 The only thing I dont understand is why there is a higher demand for large bicomps and not mini's ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't know about the use of something, it is considered to be kind of rude to look down on others that may use a certain pedal. Just saying....

Members DaSkip Posted June 28, 2006 Members Share Posted June 28, 2006 No problem, if dialed in right they can add to your sustain. Country players rely on them for there compressed sound. Give one a good testing at your local guitar store. A good compressor has many uses, most are subtle. Juat Rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juat Rocks Yeah, it can also be used as a signal booster if dialed in right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. Poopsicle Posted June 28, 2006 Members Share Posted June 28, 2006 Originally posted by qwertyredred so you love it, what is it exactly that you love? Two great sounding compressors (Ross/Orange Squeezer) you can use separately or together in one MXR sized case. True Bypass, hand assembled and made in America. A work of art.

I know what you mean. I was still in high school when I earned enough from working weekends at a mushroom farm to buy my Lovetone Meatball. I quit soon after You got to suffer a little to get out of reach stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a cool compressor made by CMATMODS.com. He used to do keeley/analogman type mods to pedals and now he makes his own pedals too. The comp is based on the old SCRIPT dyna comp. It is a little smoother than the ross IMO like it grabs the signal then slowly lets it go. It doesnt do the orange squeezer squish that great though. Just enough of a compression to get some sustain or squash to get some country style chicken pickin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaSkip Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 I own the JangleBox as well as the Analogman Bi-Comprossor Combo. Both are great and slightly different. I really like the Orange Squeezer side of the Bi-Comp. It's win, win with these. The Keeley Comp is first rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
