DanComp

Product Overview

Our version of the Dan Armstrong compressor, the "Orange Squeezer", improved with true-bypass and a few other (secret!) ingredients helping to achieve even smoother compression and tone "squashing", without the noise ! Extremely recommended for single-coil lovers.

The original "O.S" has been a key tone component for many classic sounds of Mark Knopfler, Steely Dan, the Doobie Brothers and many others.

...Currently NOT Available...

"...the Dancomp is the first compressor I have ever liked. It brings clean tones forward in the mix without feeling too compressed and enlivens the response of distortion pedals..." Julien Kasper
