    Best compressor for 8 string

    Not that far from the truth. To be honest, on several occasions I did give up for a few months. Having a selection of amps available - Marshall, Sessionette, Roost and(briefly) Hiwatt - didn't make the search any easier. Compressors were borrowed, begged and bought(cheap) from...

    Best compressor for 8 string

    I've tried Boss & Keeley. They're both bad. I've never been a fan of the Keeley. I'm thinking about an optical comp, but information is proving hard to find.

    Let the RG8 Mods begin...

    RGA8 Mods:- Replaced the pickups with Bare Knuckle Emeralds. Added a tone pot. Series/parallel mini-switches. Upgraded 3-way selector switch. Switchcraft mono jack socket. Much better. Tone vastly improved, plus actual dynamics.

    Greetings everyone. I'm new to 7 strings. Only had one a couple of months. I've been playing since I was a kid. Mainly rock and classical - no metal. Well, not often. I'm looking for info on amplification and effects for 7's. I'll try not to ask too many stupid questions. Thanks.
