No the TS9 has a great FET transistor switching system that really sounds great. Its sound quality does depend on the battery level. So use fresh batteries or an adapter. We can make the TS9 True-Bypass, the Cost is $60 and it requires me to drill into the Case where the Ibanez logo is. The turn around time on that mod is about 5 days.

No the BD-2 has a great FET transistor switching system that really sounds great. Its sound quality does depend on the battery level. So use fresh batteries or an adapter. No BOSS pedals are true-bypass. There is just not enough room to make a neat and clean install. Back to Top See similar questions...

The term 'true bypass' comes from problems associated with some pedals that even when off, have the effect of loading down the pickup. This means that instead of 100% of the signal bypassing the effect pedal, some of it is absorbed into the pedal even when it is not being used. The perfect ‘true bypass’ switch would be one that completely disconnects the pedals PC board and circuit from the signal path. See similar questions...

The term 'true bypass' came about because of the problems associated with some pedals that even when off, were affecting the tone by loading down the guitar's pickup. This means that instead of 100% of the signal bypassing the effect pedal circuitry, some of some of the signal is 'sucked' into the pedal even when it is not being used. The perfect ‘true bypass’ switch completely disconnects the pedals circuit board from the signal path. See similar questions...

No. the Bassbone is a preamp. To work properly, we buffer the signal so the Bassbone can drive two channels, the tuner and the effect loop with no signal level loss. See similar questions...

In real terms, 'true bypass' means that when disengaging an effect pedal, the switch completely disconnects the signal path and PC board from the pedal. The intent of a true bypass switch is to ensure the bass signal does not get affected in any way by the effect pedal circuitry. Although great in theory, true bypass switching generally introduces an annoying pop during the switch process, which can be devastating during a performance. See similar questions...

Yes. When the pedal is off, the sound passes straight through it without connecting to any electronic circuitry, even if the power adapter is not plugged in,. See similar questions...

True bypass means when a pedal is OFF, the signal goes in the INPUT jack and out the OUTPUT jack without touching any components (resistors, capacitors, op amps, etc). You can not check for this by pulling out the battery, as you will still get a signal out of, for example, an old wah even though it is not really true bypass (the circuit still is attached to some components when off).

Yes. In fact, all Voodoo Lab pedals have True Bypass switching giving you absolutely no loss of tone when the pedal is bypassed. See similar questions...

No, we use what we call neutral bypass. This buffered bypass does not alter tone when the pedal is bypassed and does not pop loud like common true bypass switches. And because it is buffered it prevents signal and treble loss when using long cables or multiple pedals placed after the Drivetrain II. We feel this is superior to true bypass switching.

Yes, the brand new ones are, No not all others, but it has a great bypass circuit. Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jerry Garcia, and Trey Anastasio never had true-bypass and most of the time they sound DAMN GOOD! Back to Top See similar questions...

Yes you can change the colour of the scrollbar. Go to this scrollbar generator, and try out a few colors, and they'll give you the code to put into your headers. These are a few sites that list some of the most commonly used hexidecimal colours that can be used to change the colours of your forums. See similar questions...

Very Similar, we mod the circuit so that it has more of a TS9 sound and the results are incredible. One player who has about 6 different Keeley Effects purchased 6 SD-1 pedals (some for friends) because he says the SD-1 with our 5 STAR Ge mod has the edge he wants. See similar questions...

Mod'erators look after the forum and make sure everything's in order. Right now, there are enough mods here but u never know when something can come up. Anaktix and I just became a mod after we contributed some shit in here, but for now there are a lot of mods. See similar questions...
