Basic

Made in the 80s basic Power Switch to power your Boss Pedals, or any pedals running on 9V, with a daisy chain. Also allows you to create an effects loop, which is the main reason I use the pedal. It's Boss, it's rugged, so it can take a lot of abuse. You can also set it into Mute mode but it's not very user friendly or combined with options when compared with more modern pedals.
