Trey To Bring Back Ross Compressor?
Tom Marshall has been posting on Phantasy Tour lately, and also writing some songs with Trey Anastasio.  Many members of PT asked Tom if he could pass along an interest from fans to bring back his Ross Compressor, which was lost in post-hiatus Phish, and contributed to one of the most unique guitar tones in the history of rock.  Tom was gracious enough to bring the matter up with Trey, and reported back to fans on the guitarist?s plans for his rig once Phish returns:

Ok, I spent the last two days and last night in new York writing three cool songs with Red. In direct response to msharky?s request, I asked Trey what the deal is with this compressor stuff? I explained the PT threads requesting that he bring back the compressor. i asked, first of all, is it true ? did you change your rig and eliminate the compressor?

Yes, is the short answer.

He was very surprised that I was asking him this, because I?m not really a ?tech? guy?you know? I?m very appreciative of his amazing Languedocs, (he had a Languedoc bass with him too) and I like checking out his amps and pedals and toys, but I usually don?t dwell on it, not being a guitarist myself. I also don?t listen too much to old shows, and so the ?tone change? was lost on me. I like writing new songs, and I don?t focus too much on the past.

I asked him to explain the Ross compressor, and why it?s gone.

(One caveat: I didn?t write this ?interview? down or record it, but I suppose I should have, and I guess I or someone should try to do so and post it at some point, so forgive me if I get some stuff slightly wrong or miss something. Again, this isn?t the end of the issue as you?ll see later, so we can figure everything out eventually.)

First i must explain that he found it funny that I brought it up, because he had been thinking the EXACT SAME THING: Phish is coming back, maybe the Ross should also come back. He?s thinking of the Mesa and possibly the cabinets too ? but he does like that little fender.

Basically, he used the compressor differently than people normally do ? often people will place it early in the effects chain to smooth the sound going into the other effects. Trey did it backwards, and had the Ross last ? AFTER his two tube screamers. The Ross was always on. Always. His signature Squirming Coil ?playable sustain? was the result of full volume pedal and both screamers on and pumping that signal into the Ross.

Me: and so you got rid of it?

Trey: I started playing without it after Phish and found that I could get an ?edgier? sound that I can?t get with it.

Me: so it?s gone? or just off?

Trey: gone

Me: forever?

Trey: no, I?ve been thinking of bringing it back for a while now?if i can find it!

Anyway ? I think that?s the gist of our conversation. Be glad that perhaps you made a difference ? he?s at least happy that people are asking about it.

You can read the original post here, but the news is quite positive for a return to one of the most pure guitar tones as Phish re-emerges in 2009.

That just bumped the price I\'d be willing to pay for a ticket an extra $20 or so.

Exactly how much I\'ll pay has everything to do with how business is going at the time.  

On a 2nd read, it kills me how he says "I?ve been thinking of bringing it back for a while now?if i can find it!"

For those unfamiliar- this not a unique custom piece like his guitar. This is a pedal anyone can buy at Sam Ash for $200.
