ZOOM Hyper Lead

HL-01

◆

Amazing low-noise design

Designed from the ground up for optimum performance, the HL-01 uses only strictly

selected parts. For an effect without built-in noise reduction, the low noise level of the

HL-01 is truly amazing.

◆

Mechanical switch for true bypass

On/off switching is performed using a mechanical foot switch which operates

smoothly and gives tactile feedback. In the bypass position, the guitar signal is passed

through without any alteration.

◆

Sturdy metal chassis

The rock-solid case made of aluminum not only looks good, it also can withstand the

rigors of use on stage or rough handling during transport. Stability is excellent,

ensuring that the unit will not topple over while in use.
