The pedal’s output jack is connected to a switch that toggles between effect output and your guitar signal. The guitar signal is always connected to the effect input. The input impedance is very high so you theoretically should not hear a difference. If you’ve ever plugged a strat into an old Phase 90 and set your amp to clean, you’ll know that there is in fact a difference in the form of high end loss (the extra cable length also makes it worse). It will take fewer hardwire bypass pedals in your chain to start drastically changing your tone. Again, a buffer at the start of the chain will help prevent high end signal loss.

Your guitar signal never touches the input of the effect. A switch toggles your guitar signal to flow either into & out of the effect circuitry, or straight from the input jack to the output jack of the stompbox. You can use a ‘Triple Pole Double Throw’ (3PDT) switch to true hardwire bypass your signal and light an LED at the same time. You’ll usually find 3PDT switches in boutique pedals. You can do true hardwire with a ‘Double Pole Double Throw’ (DPDT) switch, but special sensing circuitry needs to be added if you want that LED too. Using a DPDT instead of 3PDT gives you more mechanical reliability and smaller size in exchange for the extra circuitry. Most of the newer Dunlop pedals have true hardwire via DPDT switch. So when the box says ‘true hardwire,’ believe us, it’s really ‘true hardwire’ even though you only see a DPDT inside!
People like to have true hardwire bypass pedals because it gives you the cleanest possible path for your bypassed signal. The less stuff that’s in the way between your guitar and the amplifier, the cleaner the signal will be. When we say “clean” we usually mean free from high frequency signal loss. Be careful though—if you have a very long chain of effects each with true hardwire bypass, you may still experience signal loss.
