Pine Green Compressor

The Pine Green Compressor by BJFE is a compressor pedal designed for use between a low-level instrument, such as an electric or acoustic guitar, and an amplifier set for clean to moderate distortion. It features controls for compression, volume, bass, and treble, allowing for precise adjustment of the compression strength and tonal balance. The unit has high input impedance, presenting only a light load to the pickups, and the volume control on the guitar can be used as an auxiliary drive.

The compressor is designed to work into moderate to high impedance, such as that of a guitar amplifier and most effect boxes and tape echoes, with a maximum load extending down to around 10K. The electrical specifications include a maximum output of 1V RMS, a maximum current consumption of 5 mA at 10V, and a supply voltage range of 7-12V. It can be powered by a 9V battery or a standard 2.1mm DC-eliminator jack, with the unit automatically switching to battery power should the DC-cord come loose from the jack.

The Pine Green Compressor is known for its wide band low distortion, subtle, natural compression, and is suitable for use with electric and electric acoustic guitars and guitar amps. It is designed to even out the tone by limiting attack and extending sustain, making it especially effective in recording and live settings. The compressor is also noted for its low distortion, wide range compression, and minimal treble loss, making it suitable for various playing styles and setups.
