  • WHAT IS TRUE BYPASS?

  • The term "True-bypass" refers to a method of wiring a pedal's stomp switch such that when the pedal is in bypass mode, your clean signal goes in one jack and out the other. The signal does not pass through any active circuitry that can corrupt your original tone. Many pedals employ a signal buffer instead of a true-bypass design, unfortunately if this buffer is poorly designed your pedal will "suck tone" when in bypass mode.

  • CAN ALL PEDALS BE MODIFIED WITH TRUE BYPASS?

  • Yes they CAN, but we choose to only modify units with signal jacks NOT mounted to the PC board. This is our policy as we perfer not to cut traces and wire directly to PC boards because the connections are not as solid and its just not as clean.
