Orange Squeezer Compressor

Simple but nicely effective compressor kit. A lot of compressors have huge parts counts, but this one keeps it real and does what it says with the minimum of fuss.

Internal trim-pot adjustment for compression amount - just twiddle until you get what you want then shut the box.

Available with component values to make it more bass-friendly.

Board-mounted pot for easy build and simple enclosure mounting.


If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.

Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots.

Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED.

Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and can take a battery if desired with footswitch positioned 22mm higher, closer to the controls. Knobs are not included.

Excellent for bass 5 product stars
"I was looking for a compressor to even out the tone across the strings, and provide a little more volume when on, as my passive bass needs both when compared to my actives. Made this one with the bass mods and it couldn't be any closer to what I wanted. Smooth, clear, easy to use. Ideal" Brendan Harris - 13 November 2023
Lovely little compressor 5 product stars
"Really straightforward build. The only issue is how to set the internal trimmer. I kept second guessing myself and trying to look online to see if there was a definitive setting, but it really is down to using your own ears. If you want a subtle compressor without multiple knobs to dial in then this is the compressor for you." Matt - 29 April 2020
Easy to build and great to play 5 product stars
"This kit build is very straight forward and well documented, recommended it for beginners. The pedal sounds great, once you set the internal trimmer to your taste, it s easy to find the sweet spot. It s very transparent and keep it always on. I went for the bass mod and it sounds great" Mimmo - 21 November 2019
Subtle - and necessary 5 product stars
"A simple build, with a single volume control - but don't let that fool you. There's enough compression in the trim-pot to go from a subtle 'something' to a full-on squish. My Telecaster has never sounded so good - can't wait to hit my high gain half stack with this little beast tomorrow night. Another excellent, well documented Fuzz Dog kit. Cheers!"

fantastic pedal, great support 5 product stars
"the pedal sounds fantastic and fuzzdog's support is always faster than light! I've done many fuzzdog kits, all great kits. maybe the led-bezel could be better." giorgio - 22 October 2015
Everyone should have one of these 5 product stars
"The orange squeezer is a great alternative to the Ross/Keeley. I now have all three and I'd say the OS is the most transparent of all. No wonder Mark Knopfler used one! It's a simple build and way, way cheaper than the others. A great kit to build - very quick and easy and fits easily into a 1590B with a battery (I bought the enclosure separately, drilled it, painted it bright orange and built the kit while the paint dried. Love it!" Tim O. - 04 September 2015
