Fender ABY footswitch for flexible signal routing
If you want to send one guitar to two amplifiers, or connect two guitars to one amp, the Fender ABY Footswitch gives you plenty of freedom in your setup. This passive ABY footswitch works as a signal splitter and lets you switch between A, B or A+B, so you can move quickly between amplifiers, instruments or use both outputs at the same time.
Its true hardwire bypass keeps your original signal intact when the switcher is not active. That is useful if you want to preserve your tone as cleanly as possible in a live rig or studio setup.
Build and connections of the Fender ABY Footswitch
The Fender ABY Footswitch has a red metal housing and heavy-duty footswitches made for intensive use. The LED indicators clearly show which mode is active, which is helpful on a dark stage or in a busy rehearsal room.
You use 6.3 mm jack connections, with 1 or 2 inputs depending on your application and 2 outputs for A and B. The LED runs on a 9V battery or adapter. If you want advice on how an ABY switcher fits best into your guitar setup, Magna Music can help with practical guidance from players who know the gear.
