    Description

    Lightning Boy Audio 2020s Steel-Core Instrument Transformer 2021.
    The 2020S is a custom designed 1:1 ratio high-impedance audio transformer. It has 1/4" input and output jacks (interchangeable) and it requires no power supply to operate. The 2020S is designed to be used with electric musical instruments and specifically to be placed between FX pedals to give your pedals more of a vintage-studio-gear sound. The steel core laminations provide a bit of a retro sonic signature. You'll probably notice a little bit of an upper HF boost and a coloration of the mids. Both of these aspects become more obvious when the 2020S is driven by a boost pedal or when multiple 2020S's are in use in a signal chain.
