The A/B Box allows you to route your instrument’s signal to two separate output amp paths, with a Thru jack for use with a tuner or other device meant to receive a constant signal.

Key Features

  • Routes instrument signal to two separate output paths
  • Select between two separate signal paths or run both at the same time
  • Thru jack allows you to connect to a tuner or amp that receives a constant signal from your guitar, unaffected by the A/B switches
  • Output jacks are terminated to ground in bypass
  • All switching is true hardwire

Specifications

The MXR A/B BOX is powered by one 9 volt battery (remove bottom plate to install), a 9 volt AC Adapter such as the Dunlop ECB003/ECB003EU or a power supply such as the DC Brick™.

MXR

MXR’s first product was the Phase 90, released in 1972. Dunlop’s official MXR history traces the early line from that compact phaser to the Distortion+, Dyna Comp compressor and Blue Box octave fuzz—circuits that remain central reference points for the brand. JustPedals carries those classic families alongside the Carbon Copy analog delay, Micro Amp, Talk Box and bass effects. MXR’s range is deliberately broader than one effect category: compare the model number and version, especially where a classic circuit has later reissues, mini enclosures or expanded controls.

Specialist Effects Pedals

Specialist effects alter the signal in ways that do not sit cleanly inside one established family. They may use granular processing, frequency shifting, resonators, freeze or sustain, bit reduction, ring modulation, feedback networks or combinations of several techniques. The relevant distinction is the underlying process, its tracking or latency, and how completely the dry signal can be blended or replaced.
