Hartman Electronics announces the release of its new Compressor guitar pedal. (US $179.99).
In the early 1970s Dan Armstrong introduced the original Orange Squeezer™, a simple, compact guitar compressor unlike anything before it. Using a combination of hand-selected N.O.S. (new old-stock) components and a flexible, ultra-quiet, modern signal-path, the Hartman Compressor recreates the tight, transparent squeeze and legendary soft-clipping of the original, adding essential modern amenities of external Ratio and Gain control, LED, external 9VDC option, and heavy-duty true-bypass switching.
External Ratio control provides instant access to any level of compression. And with additional gain to spare, the Hartman Compressor is equally comfortable running country-clean, as a lead boost, or being pushed past breakup into smooth overdrive. Fast attack and transparent release ensure that even high ratios of compression are free of unwanted transients and pumping.
Hand-assembled in California with premium components, the Hartman Compressor features the same genuine N.O.S. parts, plated-thru-hole printed circuit board (PCB) construction and quality workmanship as Hartman's fuzz. All pedals are meticulously grounded and shielded in rugged powder-coated metal enclosures for ultra-quiet operation. Hartman pedals are made in the U.S.A. Pedal ships with new 9V battery and carries a 1-year Limited Warranty.
