Meticulously crafted compression for bass players seeking intuitive tone shaping.
The Fender Bassman Compressor lets you shape your low end with surgical precision. Designed from the ground up for bass, this compact yet powerful pedal puts studio-grade compression at your feet. With simple, intuitive controls, you can dial in the perfect amount of smooth, transparent compression to add punch and clarity to your tone without sacrificing dynamics.
Smooth, Musical Compression
Beneath its straightforward interface, the Bassman Compressor employs high-quality RMS compression—the same technology used in professional studio rack gear. The Ratio and Release switches provide two carefully calibrated presets so you can quickly lock in the ideal amount of compression for your bass and style of music. Adjust the Compression knob to fine-tune the intensity. A Blend control lets you blend in your uncompressed signal for the perfect balance of punch and feel.
Straightforward Operation
With just a few rugged, road-ready controls, the Bassman Compressor effects pedal is designed to get you dialed in and playing fast. No complex menus or parameters to navigate, just flip the Ratio and Release switches to your preferred preset, then tweak the Compression and Blend knobs by ear. A Level knob allows boosting or cutting your output level to match the volume of your uncompressed tone. Within seconds, you'll have rich, full compression that's transparent enough for any situation.
Blend in Your Natural Tone
Use the blend control to mix your compressed signal with your bass' natural uncompressed tone. This allows you to inject warmth and dynamics back into your sound for flexible, musical compression. Add as much or as little of the dry signal as needed to suit your personal playing style and the needs of the music. The blend function helps ensure compression enhances your tone rather than overpowering it.
Road-Ready and Built to Last
Like all Bassman pedals, the Bassman Compressor is housed in a durable cast aluminum enclosure to withstand the demands of traveling and gigging. The footswitches and jacks are rated for over 10,000 stomps and insertions. With high-quality components and Fender's legendary build quality, this pedal is designed to provide years of tonal enhancement wherever your music takes you. For powerful yet intuitive compression tailored to your bass, plug into the Fender Bassman Compressor.
