Can You Really DIY Knopfler’s Compressor?

What if the secret behind Mark Knopfler’s smooth, glassy “Sultans of Swing” tone wasn’t just his fingers… but a tiny orange box from the ’70s? 🎸 Thank you for supporting Hello Sailor Effects!

I’ll take you through every step: from sourcing the vintage parts, to laying out and wiring it on tagboard, to biasing the FET and hearing whether it truly delivers that “liquid sustain” we all chase. 🎸 What You’ll Learn: • How the Orange Squeezer circuit actually works • How to lay out, wire, and debug a tagboard compressor • The real tone difference between DIY and boutique builds • Does this simple 2-transistor circuit still hold up today? If you love chasing old-school tone or want to build your first compressor pedal from scratch, this one’s for you.
