Using pedals for acoustic guitars..

[boogietube]

Has anyone had any experience using the Ross Compressor or Mosfet Boost on acoustic guitars? I'm doing an acoustic thing and I want to do some slide parts and have myself cut through the other guitarist and lose some of the high freq's generated by slide use. I sold the Comp and Boost that I had built and am wondering if these will do the job for that application. As well, I'd like to use the Mosfet to boost single note lines. Anyone?
Thanks,

I've been using my Ross comp for acoustic. I really like what it does b/c the piezo has such a harsh attack. I saw the waveforms compared of piezo vs. magnetic pickups and a magnetic pickup waveform is so much smoother. So an acoustic really benefits from a compressor.

I love the sound of the Ross compressor. My only other compressor before was a dunlop mxr dyna comp and it really squashed the tone. The Ross, even at max settings, still sounds much more natural.

I'm sure there are other compressors that are even better for this purpose, but I use what I have, and I'm pretty happy with it.
