Radial Tonebone Hot British Tube Distortion Pedal

No longer available at zZounds
Ditch the muddy sound and go for a rich, saturated distortion with this pedal. The dynamics of your guitar shine through at all distortian levels.

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 Hot British beyond the limits, the natural dynamics and feel of the player still shines through.

"Best distortion pedal for 80-90's metalhead!!!"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I have search distortion pedal for about a year. Before that I always wish to had Mesa Twin Pedal but the price is insane and it was discontinued product.
Sound
Sound so great! Its compatible to my distortion need in covering 80's rock/metal like Whitesnake, Skid Row, Helloween etc. When I need more drive and sustain for solo I boosted it with my digitech bad monkey. Recently my friend told me that it could sound different between hotbritish and other hotbritish. And when he compared his hotbritish with his friend's hotbritish he found out that his hotbritish is more dominant in low freq even when using the same settings and same guitar but he loves it. Any explanation about this?
