Radial Announces the Updated Hot-British V9 is Now Shipping

	Radial Engineering's Hot-British V9

Radial Engineering Ltd. announces the Hot-British V9 is now shipping. The Hot-British V9 is an updated version of the widely popular Hot-British tube distortion pedal.

The Hot-British V9 builds on the success of its namesake with solid-state circuitry and a much smaller chassis size, making it easier to fit on a crowded pedalboard without sacrificing on tone. The Hot-British V9 is also powered via a 9V supply, allowing it to be used with multi-pedal power supplies. Now you can have the sought-after tone of a high-gain Plexi tube amp in a size suitable for fly-dates.

Beginning with Radial's unique Class-A buffering circuit, the Hot-British V9 retains the natural feel and responsiveness of the guitar, while also allowing it to drive multiple pedals and longer cable runs with ease. Once engaged, three tone-shaping stages provide a high degree of control over the resulting sound, from subtle tube saturation textures to screaming over-the-top distortion. The drive control sets the input level and the amount of distortion, while a contour knob changes the character of the distortion itself. A two band EQ section after the distortion circuit allows the user to tailor the tone to match their guitar and amp, along with a level control for the overall output of the pedal. There is also a three-position mid boost to help cut through when soloing, and a top end switch that can brighten or darken high frequencies.

Built in Canada and housed in a compact 4.25" x 4" x 2.125" solid steel chassis, the Hot-British V9 is tough enough to withstand the rigors of the road, and ships with Radial's three-year transferable warranty.
