To celebrate their 20th Anniversary, Keeley Electronics have released their much anticipated mini compressor pedal, which harkens back to their roots in pedalboard compression…Introducing the Keeley Compressor Mini!

When it comes to compressors, it’s not always obvious what they are doing to your signal until you turn them off! Compression is a subtle effect that essentially tames your signal by reducing the volume of the loudest parts and boosting the quieter parts for a more even, balanced sound. In doing so, compressors can be used to add sustain to your sound and also push the front end of your amp like a boost.

Meet Your New “Always-On” Pedal

The Keeley Electronics Compressor Mini is the next generation of Keeley compression and is sure to be your new “always-on” pedal! Designed to make compression as easy to use as possible, this “Manhattan Style” (parallel) compressor is extremely intuitive and delivers the perfect blend of dynamic and compressed guitar. As a result, the Compressor Mini retains all of the subtleties and dynamics of your playing, delivering a natural, balanced sounding tone.

Featuring an all-new transient release time, the Compressor Mini transforms your tone, making both single coils and humbuckers sound more lively and expressive. Additionally, the new automatic tone recovery circuit ensures your tone maintains it’s natural clarity and sparkle, even with high compression settings. The Compressor Mini’s legendary pre-amp tone brings out the best in your amplifier and other stompboxes, making it an essential tool to have in your arsenal. Thanks to the Compressor Mini’s micro chassis, you won’t have to sacrifice much pedalboard real estate either!

Boost

A boost pedal does one simple thing brilliantly — it makes your signal louder, stronger, and more alive. Whether you’re pushing a valve amp into natural breakup, lifting a solo above the band, or adding a touch more presence to your core tone, a clean boost gives you extra headroom without changing your character.

Use it at the front of your chain to drive other pedals harder, or after your gain stages to raise volume without adding distortion. Subtle or powerful, transparent or slightly coloured, a boost is one of the most useful tools on any pedalboard — small box, big difference.

Compressor

A compressor pedal evens out your dynamics, smoothing peaks and lifting quieter notes so everything feels tighter and more controlled. It adds sustain, clarity, and balance — making clean chords ring longer, country licks snap with precision, and funk rhythms pop with consistency. Subtle or pronounced, compression shapes the feel of your playing as much as the sound.

Use it at the front of your chain to tighten your core tone, add sustain to leads, or keep complex passages sitting neatly in the mix. From gentle polish to unmistakable squash, a compressor is one of those foundational tools that quietly makes everything sound more professional and dialled in.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

used

Used pedals bring character, value, and often a bit of history to your board. Whether it’s a well-loved classic or a recent release looking for its next home, a used pedal offers the same core tone at a more accessible price. Fully tested and described clearly, it’s a chance to grab great gear without paying brand-new money.

Go used to explore different sounds, track down discontinued favourites, or build your setup more affordably. Sometimes a pedal with a few marks on the casing still delivers flawless tone — and might even have a story or two behind it.

Volume

Volume pedals control the output level of a guitar signal using a foot-operated treadle. They allow smooth volume swells, dynamic control during playing, and easy muting between songs. Volume pedals can be placed at different points in the signal chain to either control overall loudness or adjust gain and drive behaviour when positioned before distortion or overdrive pedals.
