Key Features
The PRS Mary Cries Optical Compressor Pedal is here to smooth out your signal. Reducing harsh peaks and boosting quiet lows, the Mary Cries will thicken and push your tone without losing a drop of clarity. And it couldn't be easier to use, with just two controls to choose from you can quickly dial in your effect!
Lengthen the sustain of single coils, dial in a boost to give your tone extra presence, or even add a hint of fatness to help beef up a low output signal - it's all possible on the Mary Cries. And, as always with PRS, you can expect nothing but the highest standards of construction, as they're using premium components and through-hole soldering techniques for crystal-clear signal output. Complete with True Bypass switching for consistent dry signal performance, the Mary Cries is the ideal pedal for anyone seeking a levelled sound with tonnes of sustain.

Do away with confusion. The Mary Cries presents you with just two controls, Output Gain and Compression. Unlike other pedals that are overloaded with options, PRS have focussed the Mary Cries interface to make it super simple to dial in your effect.
A top-mounted LED lets you know when the pedal is engaged, while a left-sided LED activates when the compressor is taking effect, so you'll instantly know what's happening with your tone.
Sonically versatile. Crank the compressor and output gain to use the Mary Cries as a switchable effect or roll them back to unity gain to use it as a subtle background enhancer. Like most compressors, the Mary Cries responds dynamically to your playing style and the type of pickup you're using, so that will often determine how you use the effect.
It's PRS. The gold standard of quality with guitars, and their first effects pedals are no different. You can expect nothing but the best quality construction in the Mary Cries Compressor.
Featuring a through-hole soldered PCB that utilises the best sounding components, this Optical Compressor promises a smooth, warm response when engaged.
Expect clear and consistent tones when the bypass is engaged thanks to the Mary Cries premium true bypass switching. Whether you've got a series of effects pedals or just the one, it'll keep your signal pristine and uncoloured when it's not in use.
It may be studio quality in its sound, but the Mary Cries Compressor is also road ready in its durability. Boasting a sturdy and rugged casing with a high-quality switch, it's going to stand up to continuous gigs and sessions.
Together with its top-mounted jacks for easy pedalboard placement, the Mary Cries Optical Compressor is an ideal companion for type of player, from the aspiring rocker to the touring professional.
