Description
Running two amps on your board means two rigs’ worth of complications—unless you’ve got a BigShot ABY doing the routing. Radial built this switcher for players who want zero coloration between guitar and amp: it’s 100% passive, so there’s no buffer stage quietly shaping your tone before it ever reaches the front end.
- Flip between Amp A and Amp B instantly, or run both simultaneously for stacked stereo textures and thicker live tones
- Dedicated always-on tuner output keeps your tuner fed constantly without inserting it into the guitar-to-amp path
- Onboard isolation transformer plus a ground lift switch stamp out the hum and buzz that ground loops cause when two amps share a stage
- 180° polarity reverse on the second amp channel keeps both rigs locked in phase when blending
Power it from a 9V supply or pedalboard brick and the oversized LEDs light up so you can see amp status at a glance mid-set—useful when stage lighting makes small indicators impossible to read. Lose power, though, and it doesn’t matter: the passive signal path keeps working exactly the same, since the BigShot ABY never relies on electricity to pass your tone.
Built into Radial’s tough, low-profile chassis, it tucks onto a crowded pedalboard without eating up real estate, and the true-bypass switching means it stays invisible in the chain until you actually need it to route or blend. For anyone running dual-amp setups who refuses to sacrifice signal purity for convenience, this is the switcher to build around.
