J. Rockett Airchild Six Sixty Compression Pedal

General

The Airchild Six Sixty isn't just any J. Rockett offering, but one that's been developed with the help of none other than designer, Rein Narma — the man behind the original 1959 Fairchild 660, which is one of the best compressors ever made and, these days, would actually cost you an arm and a leg. Thankfully, the Airchild Six Sixty is excellent alternative and a fair bit more affordable too.

The Airchild Six Sixty: Studio-Grade Compression

The J. Rockett Airchild Six Sixty is one of those always-on pedals that makes everything sound better. The straightforward controls (output, tone, blend and threshold) are everything a guitarist needs to dial in the specifics, especially since the tone control serves as a tilt-EQ that boosts the trebles and cuts the basses when it's turned anti-clockwise, and vice versa. The Threshold control determines the degree of compression, while the Blend pot lets you mix up the dry and compressed signal as needed. Built like a tank and finished with top-mounted jack ports, the Airchild Six Sixty isn't just practical, but a worthy spin-off of a truly legendary chunk of hardware.
