resonance switch
- The Resonance Switch interacts
directly with your pickups, so it is only active when
connected directly to the guitar. The Resonance Switch
was designed for electric guitarists who use single coil
pickups of the type typically found on Strat® or Tele®
guitars. By engaging the Resonance Switch, the resonant
peak of a pickup can be lowered, making a single coil
sound closer to a vintage humbucker or a high-output
humbucker. There are three settings on this switch, marked
“1”, “0” and “2”. The effect of these settings is as follows:
setting 1 (up):
A single coil pickup sounds like a vintage
humbucker.
setting 0 (middle):
The tone of your pickup remains
unaltered.
setting 2 (down):
A single coil pickup sounds like a
high-output humbuck
er.
Note:
The effect of this switch will not be as evident with
humbuckers through high-gain amps as it will with single
coil pickups through lower-gain amps. Also, the Resonance
Switch interacts directly with your pickups and so this pedal
must be the first device in your chain. If you have
isolated the connection to your pickup by placing
another pedal, tuner, on-board circuitry or wireless
unit in between, this feature will not have any
effect on your tone. The same holds true for active pickups,
since the preamp isolates the coils from the pedal.
