Iron Age killswitches - Simple, versatile and hugely powerful.
**Battery pack (Installation kit) recommended if your guitar does not already have a power source installed. This is strictly for the LED, the switch itself will function without power. -
This model of killswitch acts just like a toggle. When pressed, it remains engaged & all sound is eliminated. That is, until you press the button again to disengage & resume normal sound.
It can however, still be used rhythmically to create momentary killswitch effects, it just takes a bit more effort to match the speed of our regular momentary switches.
The mechanism itself acts by grounding out the signal to your pickups. Meaning the signal never reaches back to your amp & is stopped at the source. This doesn't harm your electronics in any way, nor does it create any unwanted popping noises when activated in distorted guitars.
Some notable guitarists who have adopted the killswitch as a signature to their playing include:
Buckethead, Eddie Van Halen, & Tom Morello
Remember
“The music is in the space between the notes”
-Debussy -
Lucky for you, these switches are compatible with BOTH passive & active pickup guitar setups.
It just depends on the configuration you want to use.
Do you want control of the LED? Any toggle switch will work for this, but we also offer some micro-switches on our Installation Kit page. (Install Kits are optional & sold separately)
Do you want the LED to automatically turn on when the instrument cable is inserted? Then a simple stereo jack will do the trick. Most active-pickup guitars already have one installed! These are also available on our Installation Kit page. (Install Kits are optional & sold separately)
Can you use the killswitch without the LED? For sure, simply cap off the two lighting wires. The switch will still function 100%
Do these work on bass guitars too? Absolutely worked on this awesome Krashburn Atlass II Bass :)
Installation is a breeze with our provided installation guides & FAQ.
Countless customers have transformed their guitars into outstanding icons with little to no issues due to the resources provided & our willingness to help.Feel free to contact us anytime if you have any questions regarding installation.
