Compression pedal?

I’ve had a couple of bassist friends suggest that I purchase a compression pedal. Any thoughts on this?

I love my compressor. They are a little tricky to appreciate the value of until you’ve been playing a bit. But I would consider them one of the first pedals someone should buy, yeah.

There are a very large number (hundreds) to choose from.

This guy’s reviews are gold:

Also, the Zoom compressor models on their multi-effects boxes sounded great to me.

But your first step should be to watch some youtube videos to understand what they actually do and why you would want one. Here’s a couple that are part of sales pitches :slight_smile:
