Radial ToneBone HEADBONE VT | Two Valve Tube Head Switcher

The Radial ToneBone HEADBONE VT is an innovative switching device designed for guitarists who demand versatility and top-notch tonal performance. This game-changing switcher allows you to seamlessly toggle between two different valve tube amplifier heads using a single speaker cabinet. Whether you're using your Marshall head for rhythm or your Mesa-Boogie head for soloing, the HEADBONE VT ensures unparalleled performance both on stage and in the studio. With its 100% discrete class-A circuitry, the HEADBONE VT offers exceptional audio quality, while its transformer isolated signal path eliminates any ground loops, ensuring your sound remains pristine.

Engineered with precision, the HEADBONE VT's sophisticated switching system comprises a series of relays, opto-couplers, and load resistors, all controlled by a digitally programmed chip. With just a tap of the footswitch, the HEADBONE VT springs into action, toggling your guitar signal between amp heads in quick succession. Additionally, the HEADBONE VT features SafeMode, which automatically turns off the guitar input if power is disconnected, safeguarding your equipment. To further enhance convenience, the HEADBONE VT comes with the Slingshot remote control port, allowing you to switch between amp heads using any standard footswitch or MIDI controller, eliminating the need for long speaker cables and improving overall system efficiency.
