The Seymour Duncan Double Back Compressor reacts faithfully to your own picking dynamics to give you yet another tool with which to make your guitar really stand out. Use it subtly to increase the ‘realness’ of your tone or go over the top with a clean yet natural sustain that can last all day. It’s up to you. While compression is a great tool for all instruments, when it comes to the dynamic range of a guitar, most other compressors can get in the way of the natural transients and feel. You know the feeling; pick softly and you can hear that old compressor hesitate as it swells up. Really dig in, and it clamps down like a hammer, overcompensating until it can catch up. Not so with the Seymour Duncan Double Back Compressor. Of course our compression circuit is tailor made to the way guitarists have come to expect a high caliber compressor to feel, but thanks to the innovative and unique Double Back feature and associated three-way EQ contour switch, the Seymour Duncan Compressor lets the original guitar signal leak back into the effected tone for a natural performance like no other. Different from a simple "blend" control, the Double Back is an additive feature, which creates a dynamic complexity previously available only in complicated split signal rigs. And the Double Back and Sustain knobs have more than enough range on tap so you’re never left "wanting more."
