"The Gekko CE.Bass Compression pedal is a fantastic pedal. I’m very impressed with its ability to make the sound a little warmer and rounder whilst retaining a very ‘natural’ quality to it. I use it not only to ‘warmify’ my sound but also, to give me a little booster when needed. My hats off to Felipe and everyone at Gekko for a wonderful, user-friendly product.”

"The CE.Bass has great subtle compression. The Bass Treble EQ is easy to use and sounds great. It's top quality, high end made and very clean with no noise. Really good to just plug straight into the mixing board. Works great as a gain booster."

"The CE.Bass is a fantastic bass compression unit by Felipe at Gekko Sound. I’ve tried so many pedal compressors through the years and finally here is one that lets my P-bass breath while it works.
I’ve got it set to 4:1 ratio and a nudge on the low-end eq and super happy! Great work Gekko! This will be on the road with me from now on."

"After trying out the CE.Bass Compressor/EQ pedal I was very impressed with it’s smooth compression and well-tuned bass and treble EQ controls.
A great pedal for tightening up the low end without changing your tone and will also serve as a great signal boosting pedal.
Happy to say it’s now a permanent fixture on my main Pedal Board."

"The unit certainly has a "character". I found the sound and response to be very natural; it felt good under the fingers. CE.Bass has a subtle compression and I often found myself preferring it to other pedals.
The pedal has a straight forward nature which is something I like. Both the 4:1 and 8:1 ratios are highly usable. It maintained a very musical sound even at the high ratio setting and overall produces a desirable warm sound."

"G.Boost is an outstanding guitar pedal! Makes a small amp sound big. Makes a big amp sound better. Great as a boost for soloing, but also very nice for rhythm playing. I never want to play without it."

"Using the Gekko C.E.Bass bass guitar compression pedal with low end (40Hz) boost has proved a popular addition to visiting players in my studio. Its smoothness, subtle compression, clean, no noise signal immediately improves the quality of the bottom end Bass signal, without sacrificing the texture of the mids and top. Players love the improvement in lower bass without compromising the tone they are used to on their own instrument. Recommended to enhance smaller amps and the quality of the signal from Bass guitars.
