More expensive than the Dyna Comp, but more tone & no noise!!
This is my 1st compressor pedal, so I don't have any previous personal experience; but I am very impressed with it's performance so far. My lead guitarist has the Dyna Comp and I liked the sound, except for the significant amount of noise it creates when engaged. So I did a bit of research and went with the Custom Comp, and it already out performs the Dyna Comp on noise issue; and in my opinion sounds way better too! It is a bit more expensive, but I believe the price is worth it; and I am definitely a tone chasin' fool! I have also had excellent luck with the MXR pedals, I cannot say the same of a few other brands I have owned.

It's got the blues...and then some!
This is a very good sounding pedal out of the box, but for good measure I sent it to Fromel Electronics to have it upgraded.Stock it can go from subtle overdrive to raspy distortion, it does lack some definition however. That's why I sent it to Fromel, he added higher tolerance caps and resistors which give it a cleaner tone and more dynamic range. Personally I think it's more versatile than my Ibanez TS808(whom I sent to Fromel as well), but I found they both work better for me when used sparingly. I use them both still, but this guy can go over the top and achieve a distortion quality the Tube Screamer cannot. For the price it's a very good pedal and would recommend it! It's built solid and should last if taken care of properly,so I will give it a B+ for build quality( I don't like the under the footswitch battery compartments personally); it's Boss/Roland so it's a reputable company who will stand behind their product(until you mod it like I did...DOH!)!All in all a very good pedal if you are looking for an overdrive!
