Product description

Pigtronix Philosopher's Tone 2 Compressor/Sustainer | Roxy Music

Overview

The Pigtronix Philosopher’s Tone 2 elevates their legendary optical compression to new heights. This updated design adds a footswitchable Grit overdrive circuit, expanded headroom, and a blend control for natural feel and dynamic sustain. Whether you need clean studio-level compression, musical sustain, or amp-like grit, this versatile pedal delivers. Explore more effects at Roxy Music Effects.

Key Features

  • Updated optical compressor/sustainer with internal 18V headroom
  • Footswitchable Grit overdrive with Germanium and Silicon modes
  • Blend control for adding clean signal (active when Grit is off)
  • Treble EQ for fine-tuning brightness and clarity

Why We Love It at Roxy Music

This pedal brings together smooth, noise-free compression and expressive grit in one box. The blend control offers studio-style parallel compression, while the Grit circuit adds a warm, harmonically rich drive when you need it. It’s excellent for lead players wanting sustain, rhythm players wanting clarity, and bassists looking for punch without losing dynamics.
