Get British-style Distortion Tones!

Love that British tube amp sound? The London "Bones" is your magic little effects box! This dual distortion pedal pulls off those rich, fat tube amp tones — but it's totally a compact and unassuming member of your pedalboard. The best part about the Bones London — apart from its sweet, harmonic distortion — is that you've got independent control over two levels. Go on and dial in the right sound for the verses, and have a hotter lead tone up your sleeve... pull it out instantly, no pedalboard tap dancing necessary. The London Bones is a very cool box.

Radial Engineering Bones London Dual Distortion Pedal at a Glance:
  • Plug into British tube amp distortion tones
  • Distortion your way: 3-position gain and cut switches
  • Two level controls — go from searing rhythm to blistering lead
  • Plays nice with your other stompboxes: accepts 9V power

Plug into British tube amp distortion tones
Put the famous crunch of that famous "Plexi" half stack right into your rig. The London "Bone" is full of fat distortion tones, reminiscent of the latest high-gain Plexi-style tube amplifiers. And the unique circuitry packed into this thing keeps your notes clean, even when driven to extremes.

Distortion your way: 3-position gain and cut switches
This is no "one size fits all" distortion pedal — Bones London lets you have it how you want it! Apart from the low, high, and drive controls, you've got two sets of 3-way switches to reign in your perfection distortion tone. The kick switch lets you add extra midrange drive or fatten up your single-coil pickups. Check out the bite switch to compensate for overly bright amps or add extra sizzle to your tone.

Two level controls — go from searing rhythm to blistering lead
Most distortion pedals have one position: "On." And that's cool — but sometimes when you switch from the verse to the chorus or from the chorus to the bridge, you want to kick it up a notch — and launch into your insanely awesome lead tones. And with the Bones London on your pedalboard, you've got it. Each channel has its own variable level control. To increase sustain and cut for solos, the second drive circuit has an augmented midrange, even. This pedal has your back.

Plays nice with your other stompboxes: accepts 9V power
Got a nice pedalboard flow rocking? The Bones London will slip into your signal chain nicely. If you've got a multi-pedal power supply, the Bones London is quite content with a regular does of 9 volts. Easy enough.

Radial Engineering Bones London Dual Distortion Pedal Features:
  • Multi-stage high gain distortion
  • Modeled after 'British Plexi' half stack
  • Dual mode for two levels of distortion
  • Compact to fit on any pedalboard
  • Standard 9-volt power supply operation

The Bones London from Radial Engineering puts famous British tube amplifier tones into your rig!
