ToadWorks Mr. Squishy is a compressor pedal that combines purity of tone with tight, punchy squeeze-on-demand. Mr. Squishy has been tested with a wide range of amplifiers, including tube, solid state and hybrid, and it delivers the goods every time.
Is it perfect? No, it is not - nothing is perfect, and even if it was, every combination of guitar and amp will have a slightly different eq, output, etc., and the sound will always vary to some degree. ToadWorks Mr. Squishy provides great compression without oppression, remaining transparent enough that you never lose the original tonal qualities that made you love your axe in the first place.
For years, guitarists have sought a natural sounding compression that did not diminish their tone, and ToadWorks has delivered.
The Tone, boss, the Tone...
Don't you just hate when you kick on the compressor, and your guitar sound changes? Compressors aren't supposed to do that!!! ToadWorks Mr. Squishy is the anti-compressor - your tone stays crystal clear and unblemished, like a baby's butt (for that big red handmark across your ass, go see the Death Rattle, it'll sort you out).
Subtlety
Mr. Squishy provides plenty of squish where you want it, and none where you don't. The Gain, Squish & Level controls allow you to compensate for all manner of differences between guitars, pickup types, etc. Mr. Squishy has a nice, tight attack, and a long, slow release, giving you the best of both worlds. Mr. Squishy won't distort unless you want it to; there is no buffer, the Op-Amp can be overdriven, but that's what the Gain control is for. And when you listen to the sound clips, notice that the Level is always around six... want to guess what happens if you turn off the Squish, crank the Gain, and set the Level at 10? A very serious clean boost that will overdrive your amp's input. Yes, that's right - Mr. Squishy can double as perfect clean boost, with power to spare.
Reliability
Mr. Squishy is hand made, assembled and tested, by real humans with guitars. From the high quality 3PDT switches to the custom made machined aluminum knobs, every component is the finest available, making ToadWorks pedals the most well-built and reliable effect units in the world. So stomp away.
Design
ToadWorks Mr. Squishy is an Op-Amp based compression effect designed to provide clean, transparent tone even at full effect. The compression effect is more subtle that many other units, while at the same time offering cleaner, longer sustain.
Operation
The switch turns the effect on and off, the left most knob ("Gain") controls the level of input prior to the effect, the second knob ("Squish") controls the amount of compression, and the last knob controls the overall output level.
Manufacturing
Mr. Squishy features a true-bypass circuit, so un-squishing won't suck your tone dry. Each pedal is carefully manufactured by hand, using only the finest components. The box is Hammond, the switch is the highest quality 3PDT we could find, the jacks are Switchcraft. The knobs are solid machined aluminum, custom made specifically for ToadWorks. Capacitors are a mix of metal film, ceramic & electrolytic, resistors are a mix of carbon and metal, transistors are silicon - none of these decisions was made based on cost, they were made purely for sound and reliability.
ToadWorks Mr. Squishy is made in the USA.
