Luke 3 III preamp output impedance

[killerburst]

Does anybody know what the output impedance is on the Luke 3? Is it a buffered output/ low impedance like standard active pickups or just a high impedance out with a boost? I'm assuming low but can't find any info on EBMM support site. Will email them Monday, but curious now.

Everything runs through the onboard preamp, so I'm assuming it would be low impedance.

Interestingly, he's using a buffer on his pedalboard. I'm sure it must sound better, but I wouldn't think a buffer would be needed if the output is already low Z.

Well I guess Luke is not always playing active guitars he has an Axis Sport with Passive PUPs for instance and of course his Vintage Les Paul.

That explains it.
