Samson MD1 Passive Mono Direct Box

The affordable Samson MD1 is your ticket to clean, rich sound on a budget. Whether you need a faithful guitar signal to re-amp in the studio, or a discreet way to send your bass guitar or synth to front of house, the Samson MD1 does a great job for the price. It includes a Thru output to go between your instrument and amp without coloring your sound. The Samson MD1’s custom transformer reproduces frequencies all the way down to 18Hz, and its rugged, noise-rejecting chassis stands up to nightly abuse and noisy conditions.
