Retro Comp

Retro FX Pedals' Retro Comp is a true vintage-inspired delight for the discerning guitarist. This compact stomp box takes the classic sound of the legendary Ross Compressor and elevates it with modern refinements, delivering a rich, responsive compression that's perfect for a wide range of playing styles. At the heart of the Retro Comp lies the meticulously recreated Ross circuit, renowned for its smooth, musical compression that can tame unruly peaks without sucking the life out of your tone. But Retro FX Pedals didn't stop there – they've added true bypass switching to ensure your signal remains pristine when the pedal is disengaged, along with a handy LED indicator to let you know when it's active, even in dark stage conditions. The Retro Comp's versatility is further enhanced by its flexible power options, allowing you to run it on a standard 9V battery or use a compatible power supply. This makes it a practical choice for both studio and stage, whether you're chasing the classic country-tinged compression favored by the late, great Danny Gatton, or the more modern, percussive tones that have become a signature of Phish's Trey Anastasio. With its vintage-inspired aesthetic and meticulous attention to detail, the Retro Comp is a must-have for any guitarist seeking to add a touch of classic character and dynamic control to their sound. It's a pedal that pays homage to the past while firmly embracing the present, making it a truly versatile and inspiring addition to any rig.
