Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Keep the pickup signal from being pulled down by the rest of the rig with this adjustable-gain, single-channel buffer. It provides a flat-output, low-noise stage between the pickup and downstream effects or amplifier, including true-bypass pedals. It can work alongside an NTMB, TCT, or NTBT onboard preamp, or ahead of a passive tone circuit. Choose either 9V or 18V operation.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Keeping a pickup's output from being weakened by downstream effects, including true-bypass pedals, and amplifiers.
  • Adding a buffer stage when the instrument already uses an NTMB, TCT, or NTBT onboard preamp.
  • Using it as a stand-alone buffer directly in front of a passive tone control.
