Can someone suggest a nice cheap compressor

alvynmcq

I am on the lookout for a compressor pedal, not even sure if I need one, but would like one to try out with a silicon fuzz face clone. Mini pedal would be ideal and the cheaper the better :-) 

If anyone has one for sale as well, let me know please

Not mini but marshall ed1 (the compressor) was recommended to me and does what I wanted it to.

Not a mini pedal, but the TC Electronic Forcefield also gets pretty good reviews and is around the same price.

fuzzes compress alot in the first place. What's the planned application?

If you can find a guyatone ST-2, that's pretty good and small.

Tone City Comp Engine?

Mosky Dyan. Can be picked up very cheap, great basic compressor. MXR Dynacomp clone

I am a home player, so I am thinking it will give me more sustain with the fuzz pedal at home volume, could be way off, but would like to experiment with it

Biyang Baby Boom. Great comp for the money. Plus, from Amazon if you don't like it, send it back.

For home use +1 for Marshall Ed the Compressor.

I just bought a Celmo Sardine Can. I used to have one but it went and I wanted to try one out again..... I'm fussy with compression.

It's really, really great but after a week of back and fore I've decided to stay with my Empress. I paid £55, you can have it if you like.

Check out the Mooer Yellow. Should be cheap as chips here on the classifieds or on eBay.

Greatape

Kokko comp. About £15 and much better than the price suggests.

Funkfingers

tc electronic SpectraComp. Nice. Not sure how inexpensive.

Jota

Fender Mini Comp is just a Mooer in a different colour and cheaper.

I have a CKK Gears compressor excess to requirements. Lovely comp, complete with a blend control. £45 delivered. Check out Burgs review, he loved it -

You should look into a Skreddy lunar module if you like a smooth more compressed fuzz for lead tones.
