The worldwide standard

The Boss CS-3 Compressor pedal compresses louder signals while boosting lower signals for a smooth, thick guitar sound, where the attack characteristics can be adjusted. It provides a smooth sustain without affecting the quality of the original sound. Also suitable for bass guitars. Enhanced sustain, tight control of dynamics, fatter sound all from one pedal.

Designed for outstanding low-noise performance, the Boss CS-3 compressor pedal also provides EQ for precise sonic control.

Der Sustainer in dem Pedal gefällt mir besonders gut. Die Zusammenarbeit mit anderen Pedals muss ich noch ausgiebiger testen.

Wie erwartet gut

Tut, was er soll und das in der gewohnten Boss Qualität. Ich nutze derzeit 14 Bosspedale für Gitarre und Bass und bin mit ihnen zufrieden.

Very good value for the money!
