Direct replacement / successor: NP2XX-SILENT
2 pole 1/4" professional phone plug, gold plated contacts, red rubber overlay, silent switch
The silentPLUG automatically mutes (shorts) an instrument (guitar) cable to avoid pops and squeals when changing the instrument (guitar) under load. The integrated silent switch is based on REED-technology and guarantees a lifetime beyond 1'000 mating cycles. The new PX silentPLUG features a rugged metal shell enhanced with a rubber cushion overlay for improved shock protection.
