The True-Path Soft Touch ABY Switching Box is the finest piece in its category. No pops, no ticks, and no electrocutions, thanks to a Nickel core custom-wound 1:1 transformer that doesn't boost the treble frequencies like the "industry standard" Jensen transformer does, so fuzzes played through the True-Path sound round and distortions don't sound strident.Using the most advanced 4 opto switching system ever, yet also offering the purest signal. Fulltone developed their photocells over the last year with a rather patient optocoupler manufacturer, and the cells only have around only 50 ohms series resistance compared to the Vactecs (which all other optocoupler switchers use) offering a whopping 300-400 ohms of series resistance to your guitar's signal.Each channel has switchable JFET Buffers to drive long lengths of cables without any tone loss. Want it clean & clear for Fuzztones? Fuzz pedals like to be hit with High impedance signal like your pickups produce. Buffers are Low Impedance, so if you are a Fuzz connoisseur you simply turn off the buffer on the ABY channel that goes to your Fuzzes.Other ABY's say they're silent... but truth is they have a slight "thump" that becomes a loud "BOOM" when splitting say a Twin Reverb and Vintage Plexi Marshall.Do not confuse this with a simple metal box and 2 switches that comprise 99% of the ABY's out there. Those sound ok UNTIL your signal chain reaches 20 feet or more... UNTIL you hit "Both" and the signal is loaded down to oblivion, or UNTIL you get electrocuted because of grounding issues due to the absence of an Isolation Transformer that the True-Path has!And don't think that your tone is going to suck because you see the inside of the True-Path and think that your signal is going through a bunch of circuitry. No Audio signal passes through the switches or ANY of that circuity! Your signal is going through ONE RESISTOR in the True-Path (that's the opto

The best i've ever had.
I've had Carvin, Boss and Dunlop and other reputable companies A/B Y switchers that i cant even remember. I haven't been happy with ANY of them. There was problem with sound bleeding with all of them in either the A and B setting. ( I never use the BOTH channel Y setting) . I was so happy with this peddle that , since i use multiple guitars and amps and three different pedal boards, (some guitars sound good with some pedals,some don't) ,i've purchased # of them over the years. One for EACH pedal board and amp set-up that i have. (One for Les Pauls A/B-ing with my Marshall/Peavy 5150 -one for my Stratocaster A/B-ing my Fender Tweed Bassman/Marshall- and the last for a strictly slide operation with various gutars into a Vox AC152/Fender Twin). This pedal has buffering and grounding swtches. switch them around as you're playing, you WILL hear a difference. if you are REALLY into your sound/tone, buy this pedal.
