thanks for the extra knob boss...
the CS-2 gives you an attack control on the front and it is probably the first comp pedal to do that... but I still prefer the sound of the dynacomp. If I played more country back when I owned both I probably would have kept the CS-2 though because it really did great country chickin' pickin' sounds through a fender amp... it could get a Gibson to sound country. Defintiely has more bass reduction going on than the dynacomp and all of its cousins.
