recommendations for an ABY pedal for a newbie

[mnavarro]

looking for recommendations for an ABY pedal for a newbie looking to use two amps, and eventually a w/d/w rig

Radial Twin City is what's on my board (though I did just upgrade to a full rack mount amp switcher, so will probably sell mine soon).

^^^ another Radial TC user… great pedal. Have heard positive things about a /13 Switchazel

 

[Bxlxaxkxe]

Radial Twin City is safest bet. Works perfectly

 

[griff10672]

I will vouch for the Radial also ..............

Twin City. Do NOT get any passive unbuffered ABY pedals.

 

[Racerxrated]

I've had the Radial TC as well; and the Lehle and both are great. I now use a clone of the Fender that goes for 30-50 bucks and it works great; is also active and buffered. No tone suck as I first tried it by plugging in, and plugging straight in to the amp to compare. Been using it for 5 years for my W/D/W setup.
But you can't go wrong with the more $$ Lehle or Radial.

 

[PlayAndersons]

Another vote for the Radial Twin City.

 

[JackBootedThug]

I need one also. One more cab and the radial and I can experience wdw finally.

 

[psychodave]

I use a Fulltone ABY with silent switches.

 

[Exo-metal]

Lehle pedal has a following too.

 

[Dave M]

If you don't need or want switching, then take a look at a Radial Shotgun. Splitter, buffer on 3 of 4, GND lift, phase flip.

Thank you everyone for the suggestions. Is this the same Twin Cities everyone is recommending?

I use this one, I think this is what most people are recommending:

Not sure if there's any difference between that one and the "Tonebone"

 

[CEG85]

I have a twin city laying around, can’t go wrong with Radial.

 

[thenine]

What’s the difference with the model that looks the same but says “Bones X”?

 

[MadAsAHatter]

DeLisle makes an ABC switcher where you can run signal to 3 amps in any combination. I haven't personally used it, but plan on getting one eventually. I have an 8x8 and 12x12 switcher from him and have had zero issues. So if the ABC pedal is of the same quality it should work out well.

I use the Radial, but a lot of people are using the Earthquaker Devices Swiss Things for pedalboard management as well as an ABY. It's buffered, has a tuner out, boost, and two loops. Neat tool. Just wanted to drop another suggestion.
