AB-Y Class-A switcher

The Radial JX-2 Switchbone is the ultimate AB-Y guitar amp switcher. It is a creative tool that is designed to allow your guitar to drive and control two amplifiers without introducing noise, distortion, clicks or pops. Most importantly, the Switchbone will retain the natural sound and feel of your instrument. Radial calls this the Un-Sound.

It is important to understand that the Radial JX-2 Switchbone is in fact a unity gain amplifier or pre-amplifier that takes the input signal from the guitar and duplicates this signal at the two amplifier outputs while also sending a signal to the tuner output. In technical terms, one would call the Radial JX-2 Switchbone a high-impedance signal distribution amplifier. Without amplifying the signal, the guitar would sound weak, lack punch and body.
