Fender ABY Footswitch 4-stars Reviews
It does what it is supposed to do
I'm a fan of more quiet switches, so this one doesn't get my full five star rating. I also wish it was able to be turned off and on when plugged in.
Works well, seems very solid
I have this hooked up to 2 amps so I can play in stereo; no noticeable degradation in tone even though the unit is really affordable. Does what you'd expect it to with no clicks or pops when switching between the channels. Handy that it's passive so you don't need power; I have it hooked up to a power supply which is best as the very bright LEDs are helpful.

Great pedal but input jacks are little bit too tight... maybe it change after many uses!
Does what it says on the tin.
I use this pedal for my stereo rig and sometimes for amp switching.
The pedal is housed in a grippy textured folded steel case. The switches are robust. I have stomped on this thing many a time and it still works.
Switching between A and B or AB are easy to distinguish on a dark stage with the pedal having bright LED lights.
Simple, reasonably priced, works as intended, and is a gig stomping survivor of a pedal. What more do you need from an ABY pedal.
Solid equipment
I bought this to run two amplifiers at the same time and I was aiming to buy something that was cost effective. The first thing that I noticed about this footswitch was the weight, it's a sturdy pedal. The input sockets are solids and the switches do not feel like they are flimsy.
It works without a 9v battery, which only serves to power the LEDs. I'll be setting it and leaving it, so I am not at all bothered.
I'd be happy to gig with this and I have no concerns about the rigours of playing shows or travelling. This is a very well made item for the price.
Noisy on acoustic guitar
Works fine as an A/B device, but created noise with my acoustic on my Vox amp. Maybe not compatible with acoustic Fishman pic up.
No complain here, cheap and usefull
Had to go from my baritone toward both a bass and guitar amp, this does the job with no problem. Not the less noisy option, it's a very simple design, but had no phasing or very loud hum problem with this one.
ABY Switch
I bought this unit in order to switch between two amps; The unit is well made and sturdy/robust and has two LEDs to identify which amp is in use or both, I would recomend this unit as value for money as well as a usful addition to your rig.

Simple, rugged and inexpensive pedal: it allows you to connect two guitar to one amp or one guitar to two amps.
I use it to send my guitar signal to both a Kemper and Fractal AX8.
Very tranpsarent and low noise.
I use it live to connect both my Les Paul and Strat to my rig, so that i don't have to pull out guitar cable everytime i switch guitars.
great little pedal
Was exactly what I was looking for. Volume doesn't decrease when audio is split which was problem I had with a cheaper one. Great job fender. Works without a battery which is a big plus.
