EBS Multicomp True Bypass or Non True Bypass

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey guys. I have a beat up non true by pass version of the EBS multicomp that I love. Recently its takin a turn for the worst. I have to press on the footswitch several times to engage the pedal. Ive been contimplating getting the true bypass version for a while so instead of goin through the process of getting the pedal fixed, should I just sell it as is and get a new true bypass version? Which version do you guys like? Thanks!

It will honestly cost just as much to have it fixed, as it would to buy a new one. That said, I don't think there's any reason not to buy the non-TBP version if you see one FS.

There is no advantage to TBP vs. a good buffered bypass.

repeat that over and over. =)
