Excellent Analog Noise Gate!

It is simply a great pedal to have on any board! With an all-analog design, this Noise Gate helps clamp down on guitar hum without coloration to the tone and without digital artifacts. It also acts as a Line Driver for those with extended stage range. I have two of these laying around.
