Surprisingly I only used this pedal once in my studio! Found that I am not a fan of noise gates or effect loops. I use a lot of fuzz and feedback heavy strat playing. This effect pedal didn't allow for a ton of natural feedback and harmonics when I used it. But great for eliminating signal hum and does work really well! Basically new with original box and instructions.

Product Description:

"Silence your signal chain while expanding your routing options with the Electro-Harmonix The Silencer noise gate/effects loop. This dual function pedal starts off with a versatile noise gate that you can tweak to your desired settings. Threshold, Reduction, and Release controls let you create a setting that stays out of your way and doesn't affect your sound. Use it as an inline noise gate or as a loop-specific noise gate to kill unwanted buzz and hum from unruly pedals. Sweetwater musicians don't put up with unwanted noise and neither should you. Stop hum and buzz with Electro-Harmonix The Silencer noise gate/effects loop.
