Doesn't matter. It has star wars shit on it. Easily the best compressor on the market just because of that.

It sounds pretty spot-on from what I gathered from other gear demos and whatnot, especially similar to the Bi-Comprosser with just the Ross side. I keep the sustain around 10 and the level a little high so I get a little boost too. Cost about $150
Guitars: Gibson ES-339 and LP studio w/ grovers and WCR Fillmores. Simon and Patrick Showcase Rosewood CW, PRS SE Semi Hollow w/ mods, modded Ibanez MC300NT
Amps: Groove Tubes Soul-O 45, Fuchs ODS 50 mod - EVM12L, Emi RW&B, and Weber Cali cabs

I used to be a huge advocate of the Bi-Comprosser....until I got a Ross. Now I am very skeptical of any clones.
The Ross is untouchable.
Current Rig:
Ron Kirn Barn Buster Telecaster---->Crybaby-->Ross Compressor--->Analogman King of Tone(just replaced my two TS9-Silver Mods)--->Ernie Ball Volume Pedal---> Fender Deluxe Reverb RI.  All connected using AO Guitars custom cables which are insane.
