Radial Engineering BigShot ABY Passive True-Bypass Amp Switcher

Condition: Very Good

Includes: Pedal only (No original box)

Up for grabs is a Radial BigShot ABY amplifier switcher in very good condition. If you are looking to run a dual-amplifier rig without sacrificing your tone or dealing with annoying ground-loop hum, this is the industry standard. It shows normal signs of cosmetic wear from typical pedalboard use, but it has been fully tested and works perfectly.

Why the BigShot ABY?

Unlike cheap switchers that suck your tone or introduce massive hum when running two amps simultaneously, the Radial BigShot is a professional-grade, completely passive switcher. Because it is 100% passive, it offers true-bypass switching to ensure your pure guitar signal hits your amplifiers completely unaltered.

Even better, Radial loaded this compact utility pedal with the essential tools needed to fix the two biggest problems with dual-amp setups: phase cancellation and ground loops.

  • True ABY Switching: Instantly toggle between Amp A and Amp B, or hit the "Both" switch to combine them for a massive wall of sound.

  • Onboard Isolation Transformer: Features an internal transformer that can be engaged on Output B to completely isolate your secondary amp, blocking unwanted noise.

  • Ground Lift Switch: Eliminates the nasty hum and buzz caused by ground loops when plugging into two different electrical outlets.

  • 180° Polarity Reverse: Fixes phase cancellation instantly. If your two amps are fighting each other and sounding thin when combined, flip this switch to bring them perfectly into phase for a punchy, full-frequency tone.

  • Built Like a Tank: Housed in Radial’s legendary 14-gauge steel chassis. It is completely indestructible and ready for heavy stage or studio use.
