Description

Unleash a new wave of sonic expression with the Fredric Effects Zesty Comp, a compressor pedal that rewrites the rules of dynamic control. Inspired by the legendary Dan Armstrong Orange Squeezer, this pedal isn't about blending in—it's about standing out. The Zesty Comp delivers characterful, pronounced compression that invigorates your tone with added sustain, attack, and a dash of top-end sparkle.

Gone are the days of indistinguishable compression; the Zesty Comp offers a dynamic range of expression with its innovative controls. The Input Gain knob empowers you to tailor your tone to your instrument, ensuring that whether you’re using single-coils or humbuckers, your sound remains vibrant and alive. For those who crave more, the three-way Compression Toggle lets you dial in just the right amount of squish—from a gentle squeeze to a full-bodied, robust compression.

Beyond its primary function, the Zesty Comp also doubles as a musical boost pedal. By adjusting the Level control above unity gain, you can push your solos to new heights, enriching your sound with a touch of grit that brings out the best in your performance. Handbuilt in London, this pedal is a testament to craftsmanship and creativity, offering every guitarist a chance to explore new territories of sound.

  • Evolution of the classic Dan Armstrong Orange Squeezer compressor
  • Three-way Compression Toggle for customizable compression levels
  • Input Gain for tailoring to different pickup outputs
  • Level control for use as a boost pedal
  • Handbuilt in London
