API TranZformer GT

TranZformer GT, from API, is a powerful analog effects pedal specifically designed for guitarists. Part of TranZformer GT's exemplary sonic control is due to its incorporation of an API 525 feedback-type compressor in tandem with a 3-band EQ that has been specifically optimized for guitar. Of course, each of these components are indepdendently in/out switchable for optimal flexibility. Additional features include a transformer output, phase invert switches on each output, hard wire bypass switch, ground lift, and clip indicators.
