Comments about Electro-Harmonix Bass Compressor/ Sustainer:

Electro Harmonix has been "Rockin the House" for decades. At first I wasn't sure I wanted this unit, bought it any way. Here is my signal chain: guitar - Bass preacher - Tascam 2488 neo. boom. ..1997 Squire 5 string P Bass - Bass preacher - Neo ...boom.
Ive tried a number of others, eg; dyna comp; too heavy handed. Boss limiter enhancer: quite good. This puppy is easy, effective and as heavy handed as you want it to be. Heres the thing; the toggle "attack " switch settings, makes you think. It changes your strumming and picking methods. I believe its made me a better player. MADE IN THE U.S.A..!

Comments about Electro-Harmonix Bass Compressor/ Sustainer:

This is an affordable signal compressor for smoothing your the levels in your bass tone. Once it is set, you can forget that it's in the signal chain and just enjoy a smooth and full bass tone.
