Used Orange AMP DETONATOR AB-Y Distortion Pedal

Orange Amp Detonator AB-Y Switcher Pedal – Buffered & Isolated Outputs

“Silent Switching, Maximum Clarity”

A Pro-Grade AB-Y Pedal for Dual Amp Control

The Orange Amp Detonator is a compact, active AB-Y switcher pedal built for guitarists who run dual-amp rigs and demand pristine signal integrity. Featuring two buffered outputs—one with a custom-designed isolating transformer—this pedal eliminates ground loop hum and phase issues while preserving your tone across long cable runs.

With silent switching, a polarity correction switch, and a tri-color LED indicator, the Amp Detonator ensures seamless transitions between amps or simultaneous output with zero signal loss. It’s the only active AB-Y switcher that can be powered by a 9V battery or DC adapter, and its internal charge pump boosts voltage to 18V for increased headroom and ultra-low harmonic distortion.
