Visual Sound Comp 66

[Butch Snyder]

I have a Visual Sound Route 66 OD/Comp pedal. I love it but don’t really use the OD side and it takes up the space of two pedals on my pedalboard. I’d like to get a tremolo pedal; but no real estate left on the board. I really like the compressor side of the Route 66. I was thinking about getting a Comp 66. It’s like the Route 66 but only the compressor. Has anyone had experience with them?​

Hey Butch. I haven't tried one of those out in years but if you like the comp side of the Route 66, you'll like the Comp 66. It's literally the same circuit from what I remember the designer (RG Keen) telling me when that and the Route 808 came out. I wish they still offered some of the single pedals. Off to Reverb/eBay to look for them. Used prices aren't bad. I was just looking at the Route 808 earlier this evening.

Thanks for the comment Erik. I found a mint Comp 66 for $35 and grabbed it.

that seems dang cheap for a decent comp!

That’s a great deal.
