Lightning Boy Audio 23Fe

Iron-Core Instrument Transformer

If you're new to the idea of transformers in your instruments signal path, the 23Fe is a great place to start because it focuses on providing a lot of color, a bit of compression, and an upper-mid-forward voicing. The 23Fe is a 1:1 ratio high-impedance audio transformer designed for use in unbalanced electric musical instrument signal paths (ie. guitar, bass, synth, etc.). It offers a different tone from the 2020S and about twice as much sonic coloration. There is also noticeable amounts of compression with signals as small as passive pickups directly coupled to the 23Fe. There is a little more signal insertion loss than the 2020S, at about 2dB. It is highly recommended to experiment with driving it with a boost pedal to achieve more color and compression.
