Radial Tonebone Headbone SS Solid State Head Switching Pedal
The Radial Headbone is an advanced ‘head switching device’ that allows two different guitar amplifier heads to be used with a single speaker cabinet. With Headbone, one head could, for instance, be used for rhythm while a second head could be used for soloing. With 100% discreet class-A circuitry and choice of either buffered or un-buffered inputs, the Headbone will be of particular interest for players that demand the utmost in tonal performance.
• Switches two heads using one speaker cabinet
• Choice of direct and buffered inputs
• Digital micro-controlled relays
• Slingshot™ remote-control input
• On-board resistor ensures constant load on head
• Safemode™ power-off protection
The Headbone’s internal switching comprises a sequence of relays, photocells, and load resistors, all of which are controlled via a digitally programmed chip. Hit the footswitch and the Headbone toggles the guitar signal from one amp to the other, disconnects the speaker and diverts the signal to a load resister, reconnects the speaker to the second head and turns on the guitar, all in quick succession.
To ensure safe and reliable performance, the Headbone features SafeMode™ whereby even when power is disconnected, the Headbone will automatically default to a ‘head-1 to cabinet’ status, ensuring a constant and safe load on the amplifier.
For large stages, the Headbone is equipped with Slingshot™, an easy to use remote control system that employs a standard foot switch or contact closure that enables the guitarist to toggle the Headbone’s status from his pedal board. This eliminates running guitar and speaker cables to-and-from the pedal board and the amplifier.
