This unit is in excellent condition, works flawlessly, and has been kept in a smoke-free environment.

Why am I selling? I absolutely love the Cali76 architecture, but my playing needs have shifted. If you are looking for the ultimate single-stage, ultra-transparent studio compression with total control over your transients, this is the pedal that does it best.

Why the Cali76 Compact Deluxe is the Best in the Business:

    •    Real 1176 Character: Built with discrete, high-current, low-noise Class-A electronics for that ultra-fast, musical FET response.

Origin Effects

    •    Full Studio Control Set: Unlike simpler compressors, this gives you dedicated knobs for Attack and Release, allowing you to perfectly shape your note transients.

    •    Dry Blend Knob: The secret weapon for guitarists. It allows for parallel compression—blending your compressed sustain with your natural, unaffected dry signal so you never lose your pick attack or dynamic feel.

    •    High Headroom: It runs on standard 9V DC but boosts the voltage internally for massive dynamic headroom, meaning it handles hot pickups, line-level signals, and drives perfectly without clipping.

Origin Effects

    •    Jewel Light Metering: The large jewel light changes color (Red, Amber, Jewel-Green) to act as an intuitive, real-time gain reduction meter.
