Up for sale is a Radial Engineering Tonebone Hot British 12AX7 Tube Distortion in good condition, complete with original box and original power supply (15V DC, 400mA). S/N 201128. Made in Canada by Radial Engineering.
The Hot British is one of the most comprehensive and tonally versatile tube distortion pedals ever produced. Built around a genuine 12AX7 tube operating at real high voltages, it delivers the ultra-dynamic pick response and harmonic complexity that only a true tube gain stage can provide — from warm, touch-sensitive overdrive to thick, saturated British-voiced distortion. The combination of a full 5-knob EQ (Level, High, Low, Contour, Drive) with three independent voicing toggle switch banks — Top End (Bright/Flat/Dark), Voicing (Fat/Notch/Out) and Mid Boost (12dB/7dB/Out) — gives the Hot British an extraordinary range of tonal options, making it equally at home for classic rock, hard rock, and everything in between. A uniquely sophisticated tube distortion pedal for discerning players, now discontinued and increasingly sought-after.
