The Forest Green Compressor Fact is a fantastic, straightforward compressor, especially for guitarists who want subtle to moderate compression without adding harshness. It's a great addition for players seeking a clean, dynamic boost for rhythm playing or a touch of sustain for leads – think clean jazz, country, or even a subtle tightening for a rock rhythm section.

Product Description

Frequently Asked Questions

The Tone control subtly adjusts the EQ of the compressed signal, adding warmth or clarity as needed to prevent muddiness or harshness.
While designed for guitar, it works well on bass, especially for taming unruly low-end and adding sustain – just be mindful of potential muddiness at higher compression settings.
It requires a standard 9V DC negative-center power supply, which is readily available and affordable, but ensure it can provide sufficient current draw.
