General Questions / Onboard compressor?
March 02, 2015, 05:07:03 AM
Howdy 'beaners!
I'm a complete n00b and will no doubt make that obvious with my questions, so I'll ask for y'all's forgiveness now, in my very first post  :)....

I'm building a 12 string and I want to incorporate an onboard compressor, probably the Afterlife. It seems to be a good mix between relative ease of assembly, some flexibility in controls, and alleged low noise.

As the guitar is based on the Fender Electric XII, I'm thinking I'll install the compressor behind a Jaguar style upper control plate, meaning I'd need to use thumbwheel pots, some other sort of switch, a battery box, and of course no in/out jacks. Are there any other modifications that I'm missing?

Any ideas or advice are most appreciated. Thanks!!!!
