The Suhr Woodshed Comp is a compressor pedal delivering clear, transparent compression that retains the tone and dynamics of your guitar. Tailored toward a studio-quality schematic, its feed-forward gain reduction results in a more open, natural tone than traditional compressors. With massive headroom, the Woodshed Comp can even be used as a clean boost when dialed in with minimal compression. Despite its compact size, this durable stompbox packs versatile compression engineered with guitarist Andy Wood.

Retains Clarity With Transparent Compression

Some compressors can muddy up your tone, but not the Woodshed Comp. Its clear, transparent compression retains the nuances that make your guitar tone great. You'll get soaring sustain without resorting to heavy distortion or squashing your dynamics. The Woodshed Comp is perfect for keeping your core tone intact across different amps and venues.

Studio-Quality Compression Tailored for Guitar

Though inspired by studio compressors, the Woodshed Comp is tailored specifically for guitar. Its fast attack balances compression and sustain for singing leads without excessive fizz. Controls are tuned for sensitivity, with a wide threshold range that works for both humbuckers and single coils. The result is studio-quality compression made for the stage.

Feed-Forward Gain Reduction for Open, Natural Tone

The Woodshed Comp compressor uses an uncommon feed-forward design that results in exceptionally transparent compression. Unlike most pedals, the input signal controls the gain reduction rather than the output. This makes the Woodshed Comp more open and natural sounding than other compressors.

Massive Headroom for Use as a Clean Boost

With more headroom than any other Suhr pedal, the Woodshed Comp excels as a clean boost when dialed in with minimal compression. Turn it up for saturated tube amp tones and tighter palm mutes. The possibilities are wide open, all in a compact pedal designed with versatile guitarist Andy Wood.
