SMJ LEGEND Series Compressor "Control" Pedal

Smith guitar pedals.

Once again fantastic and prompt service from Richards guitars and also a very prompt email reply from Jon explaining the way to set up the multiple pedals I purchased, iam very grateful for your assistance . Finally this is my approximate sixth purchase from Richard guitars including three guitars set up to perfection . Your business is a credit to you and your passion for guitars is seen on your YouTube clips . Many thanks Alan clayton

Reluctant 3 stars

The compressor pedal is excellent and was super cheap. No complaints there. However the process and packaging was somewhat disappointing. The pedal arrived in a padded bag which would have been fine except the box inside had come apart and the contents, box and lid where rattling around loose. No damage done but an elastic band would have sorted that. Process - slow and confusing by today's standards. I have received stuff from China in a similar timeframe and what is it with having to wait for an email to pay? Very confusing. Also why do Richards think every sale is a guitar and refers to free setups (which they don't now do on every sale?) Emails, invoices blah blah all refer to a guitar sale regardless. I appreciate that Richards are a small company without the resources of the big boys but like hotel owners should sleep in their own rooms, Richards should try buying from themselves. Not quite as good as they think they are? Sorry for the rant but I hope it is useful feedback. As I say all ok in the end but this would not be my first choice of supplier.

Excellent pedals, cheap and work exactly the same /better than pedals that are made by well known and ‘boutique’ brands for a few hundred pounds more, which are also just the same circuit boards. It just goes to show how much you pay for marketing:grinning_face_with_one_large_and_one_small_eye:
