REVIEW: Is the Donner ABY BOX a Good Channel Switcher?

guitaroutrun.com

The Donner ABY Box Channel Switch stands out as a compact and sturdy choice for guitarists seeking reliable A/B switching without frills. Its seamless channel switching and low noise operation ensure that your tone remains intact during live performances, all at a budget-friendly price. However, it does have some drawbacks, including potential mounting challenges due to its small size and a lack of advanced features like signal blending or MIDI control. For musicians who need straightforward functionality, this pedal is an excellent option, but those looking for more sophisticated routing capabilities might want to look elsewhere.

just get it

I honestly just got it because I liked the priced and it seemed nonsensical to buy one that was more expensive and I was right! I mean the pedal itself doesn't alter your tone at all so why should you pay more than $30 for it? on top of that, another plus is that it takes up literally no room at all on my pedalboard, which is extremely handy. and yet another plus is that you don't need to waste a power supply on this pedal since it doesn't require one! AND YET ANOTHER PLUS is that it doesn't alter tone or reduce sound like a lot of people probably fear will happen considering its cheaper price. but, no, in all regards, this pedal is perfect.
