Pure Tone Buffer

The famous buffer that is in all Truetone pedals is also available in a tiny, Custom Shop package. Put it first in the chain of effects, plug in your input and output cables and a 9V power supply (like the 1 SPOT…), and your guitar will sound like it’s plugged directly into your amp with a short cord. It’s that simple, and yes, it really works. Completely eliminates cable capacitance and tone sucking. NOW IN STOCK!
Size: 2.5″ x 2.37″ x 1.2″ (63 x 60 x 30mm)

Customer Review: I just got the VS PureTone Buffers, and had a chance to play them and compare them last night. They sound fantastic. I’m so, so happy that I discovered them, and can’t say enough good things. I don’t play guitar for a living, but I’ve been playing for almost 20 years, in some professional cover bands, as well as paid studio work. I’ve had a TON of buffers in my rig from time to time: T1M MiniBuffer, Axess BS2, MXR/CAE401 Line Boost, Boss TU2/TU3. One crucial area in which most “expensive” buffers fail is in the treble content. Most people confuse “treble” with “clarity”, and most of the high-end buffers I’ve had just add WAY too much treble content. Sonically, just like you claim, your buffer is uber-neutral sounding, yet still clear. The mids sound, and feel, really natural. And the treble isn’t over-hyped. I’ve been running the T1M buffer under my board lately. And while that buffer is hard to beat for $39 bucks, it lacks a certain clarity that the VS PureTone has. Yours is much more clear in the mids. In a back to back comparison, the T1M sounds a little congested in the mids, and a little muddy on the low end. Bottom line: when I’m using the VS PT buffer, I don’t know it’s even there. Whereas I *knew* when my $200 Axcess BS2 was on, because my ears were bleeding. (haha). To top it all off, your price point is fantastic. It’s absurd that people are charging, and spending, $150+ for a buffer. AND the size of yours is perfect. It can be mounted under my board, and doesn’t take up actual pedal real estate. Nick P.
