Free yourself from the woes of tone suck with Bonafide Buffer from TC Electronic, a highly compact, all-analog buffer pedal that helps to preserve your tone with ultralong cable runs and highly complex pedalboards. With the high-quality analog buffer, you'll reduce noise and save your treble.
The Bonafide Buffer pedal converts the 1-megohm Hi-Z input into a low-impedance 100-ohm output, allowing you to maintain your signal integrity when it has to pass through many inputs and outputs or very long cables. Bonafide Buffer utilizes 9 VDC input via standard 9V power supplies (not included), but thanks to an intelligent bypass relay, the pedal will automatically switch to a true bypass when a loss of input power is detected. This allows you to continue using the pedal passively without interrupting your performance. Made from durable diecast metal, the Bonafide Buffer will stand the test of time.
With a buffer, extra voltage is used to boost the signal's integrity, reducing the resistance of the signal as it leaves the pedal, so it can more easily withstand these long transmissions. Thus, more of your high frequencies are preserved, allowing your full, honest guitar tone to be processed or amplified in its full glory.
