Built like a tank yet small enough to fit on a pedalboard, the Tonebone Hot British is the world’s most compact tube distortion. It is in fact a hybrid that combines the control of a triple-stage solid-state front end with the warmth and natural even harmonic generation of a 12AX7 tube. The tube is mounted on its side to keep the profile low for easy pedal action.

Power for the Hot British is provided by a external 15VDC supply and is regulated and filtered internally to eliminate hum and noise. To further reduce 'self noise', a unique ground plain circuit topology is employed, making the Tonebone Hot British one of the quietest pedals in its class.

Tonebone is also built tough—14-gauge steel construction reduces stress on the PC board and a baked enamel finish will keep your Tonebone looking great for years!
