The Orange Squeezer™ is an excellent little compressor and easy to build too. The original unit plugged directly into your guitar. We have updated this to the standard stompbox format. According to stompbox folklore, Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) and Jeff “Skunk” Baxter (Steeley Dan, Doobie Brothers, Studio player) used this compressor. You can certainly hear some excellent compressed guitar playing on the Dire Straits song “Sultans of Swing” and Baxter’s solos on the Doobie Brothers “Takin’ It To The Streets” album (see youtube video at the bottom of the page).
