Anyone with a compressor that I can try out?

[Joshbasscana]

Hey guys,

Im looking into getting a compressor to even out my tone live. Is there anyone who lives in Sheffield or nearby where I can try it out (possibly borrow) in my rehearsels with the band so I can get a real feel for it. I am very reliable!
Thanks guys - would appreciate your help,

Josh

I've got a mint [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=16723&st=0&p=170560&#entry170560"]Boss LMB-3 Limiter / Enhancer [/url]you can have for £40 posted with a new battery. That's got to be cheaper than the fuel to go and try one out, surely? Certainly would be if you were going to drive down here to test it!

lol, thanks for the offer. I think I want to try it out first before I buy. That's one thing I've learnt in the past!

FWIW if you look on eBay you'll find used LMB-3s usually sell for about £40, so if you didn't want it you wouldn't lose more than a few quid when you sell it on.

It's actually a pretty good pedal BTW. Doesn't do that "fattening" thing that compressors are known for but it does keep your peaks under control without trashing your sound. I've got one on my board to rein in any crazy stunts some of my other pedals might try to pull.

+1 I love mine. It's great for clean guitars as well.
