Product Description

The London 'Bone' is a solid-state version of the popular Tonebone Hot British distortion pedal. The 'magic' inside is a multi-stage drive circuit that produces rich, fat tones reminiscent of the latest high-gain Plexi-style tube amplifiers. This unique circuitry retains note clarity even when driven to extremes. Features include: variable drive that lets you dial-in the perfect amount of distortion, a powerful dual-band equalizer with Radial's distinctive passive-interactive tone circuit, a 3-position 'Kick' switch to add extra mid-range drive or fatten up single coil pickups, plus a 3-position 'Bite' control that can compensate for overly bright amps or add extra cut and sizzle to your tone.

The London employs a unique high performance buffering circuit with preset load correction that retains the performance of 'true bypass' connectivity while lowering the impedance and susceptibility to noise. This enables the London to efficiently drive the guitar signal when using longer cables and enables it to employ the latest EIS - Electronic Impulse Switching - for unmatched durability without the challenges posed by mechanical switches.

For maximum on-stage efficiency, the London is configured for 'clean, rhythm & lead' playability whereby in bypass mode, you get the natural clean sound of your guitar. When the London is activated, you can choose between two output drive circuits using the toggle footswitch. Each is equipped with a variable level control ( so that Level-1 can be set for rhythm while Level-2 can be driven at a higher level for lead. To increase sustain and cut for solos, the second drive circuit is augmented in the mid-range. Bright, easy to see LEDs deliver on-stage switching cues so you know exactly where you are at all times.

As most players employ pedalboards, the London features standard 'Boss style' 9V powering that will adapt to most multi-pedal power supplies. The ultra-compact design with top mounted i/o connections allow pedals to be placed close together for those wishing maximum pedalboard density.

The London is a high performance distortion pedal that delivers decades of Plexi-style tones in a compact and easy to use format. God save the Queen!

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (1 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
"Beautiful distortion tones."
Sound: Killer pedal. Beautiful thick distortion tones. I've tried it with both humbuckers and single coils into a clean high headroom amp .... and the results were fantastic. Interacts with guitar volume and tone adjustments very well. Feature: Needs a 9 volt adapter - not included when I bought it. Tone controls are very interactive and musical ---- but they're not extreme, and sometimes you want to play around with extreme eq. Only a slight weakness considering how tweakable and sweet the availables tones are. Ease of Use: Easy to use and tweak. Quality: Seems very solid to me. Value: Very worthwhile. The Wow Factor: Heavy British tones with lots of flexibility? Of course I want it. Overall: Well, you probably always want to try out new pedals. I've owned over a dozen various distortions, but this one is a keeper.
Style of Music: Blues, rock, jazz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!
