Tonebone Hot British
$199.99
The Tonebone Hot British is distortion at its best! From fat hot-wired Marshall tones to the
huge scooped out mid sounds, the Hot British is blistering brute force extraordinaire! Based on high-gain amplifier designs, the Hot British is tailored to extract ultra-rich
harmonics and full-on saturated tube settings without the mud or noise that is typical with
other pedals. The powerful EQ settings truly allow the player to dial in to the type of tones
that create everything from chunky rhythms to sizzling lead solos. Best of all, even when pushing the Tonebone Hot British beyond the limits, the natural
dynamics and feel of the player still shines through. Drive and Level Controls The Hot British design follows the way a guitar amplifier works whereby the input DRIVE is
akin to the input channel volume, while the LEVEL control acts more like a master volume
control. The DRIVE control provides overall input gain to the distortion circuit. When used in
conjunction with the EQ controls, the Hot British easily allows one to emulate the rhythm tones
reminiscent of ZZ-Top, Metallica, Megadeath and Soundgarden. For soloing, the wailing tones
popularized by players like Eddie Van Halen, Richie Blackmore, Yngwie Malmsteen, and Randy
Rhodes are also easily attained. Equalization and Tonal Structure The Tonebone Hot British employs active post-distortion equalization for maximum flexibility.
Tone shaping is performed with three controls and three switches thus allowing the guitarist to
dial in the type of tonal structure that may be desired. HIGH and LOW equalization are extremely active providing up to 15dB of gain control. These
work in conjunction with the TOP-END, MID-BOOST and VOICING controls. Overall shaping begins
with the TOP-END control with choice of Dark, Normal or Bright settings, which are used to
compensate for the tonal characteristics of the amplifier. The MID-BOOST switch is used to fatten-up single coil pick-ups or to add 'meat' to the tone
for additional cut during soloing. The Hot British mid-range frequencies have been carefully
selected to work with popular amplifiers like Twins and Marshalls. These settings are extremely
effective at compensating for 'clean' oriented channels on classic tube amplifiers. The three-position VOICING switch works with the CONTOUR control for radical souped-up tones.
The FAT position develops huge blistering solo tones and the cut-through power to get past the
noise when you have to. The V or 'scoop' position is used to cut the mids while allowing the
lower and upper harmonics to remain, creating huge chunky rhythms when building a wall of sound
with a solid foundation. Big. Tonebone Hot British Specificatons: $199.99
