Dynamics are a crucial part of playing music.
When controlled they bring music to life, but
uneven or wild playing can ruin a performance.
We put our expertise to work creating The
Bends Compressor, a studio-quality stompbox
that tames wild volume spikes without altering
your tone. Drive and Recovery controls let
you dial in the perfect amount of compression
to complement your playing style and extend
sustain, while the Blend control lets you mix in
the dry signal to maintain your natural pick attack.
The Amp Jewel LED changes color from white to
pink along with your playing to help show when
the compression circuit is engaged and how long
your signal is affected.
Designed by our in-house team of experts, The
Bends Compressor is an all-original circuit.
We consulted with a plethora of players while
designing this pedal, and the resulting stompbox
is packed with stage-ready features.
The chassis is crafted from lightweight, durable
anodized aluminium, and the Amp Jewel LED
gives your pedalboard the classic Fender look.
The LED-backlit knobs show your control settings
on a dark stage at a glance. We even made
swapping batteries quicker and easier with our
exclusive “patent applied for”, magnetically
latched 9V battery door.
Control your dynamics with The Bends
Compressor, the latest sound-sculpting offering
from Fender.
