The Hollywood 'Bone' is a solid-state version of the popular
Tonebone Classic distortion pedal. The 'magic' inside is a dual-stage
drive circuit that produces sweet yet distinctive tones reminiscent of
the best American tube amps from the last half century, while
delivering real-amp dynamics. This means that when you turn your guitar
down, the Hollywood will clean up like a real tube amp. Features
include: variable drive that lets you dial-in the perfect amount of
distortion, a powerful dual-band equalizer with Radial's distinctive
passive-interactive tone circuit, a 3-position 'gain' switch that lets
you adjust the drive range from slight grit to extreme overdrive, plus
a 3-position 'cut' switch that lets you add extra mid-range drive or
fatten up single coil pickups.
The Hollywood employs a unique high performance buffering circuit
with preset load correction that retains the performance of 'true
bypass' connectivity while lowering the impedance and susceptibility to
noise. This enables the Hollywood to efficiently drive the guitar
signal when using longer cables and enables it to employ our latest EIS
– Electronic Impulse Switching – for unmatched durability without the
challenges posed by mechanical switches.
For maximum on-stage efficiency, the Hollywood is configured for
'clean, rhythm & lead' playability whereby in bypass mode, you get
the natural clean sound of your guitar. When the Hollywood is
activated, you can choose between two output drive circuits using the
toggle footswitch. Each is equipped with a variable level control so
that Level-1 can be set for rhythm while Level-2 can be driven at a
higher level for lead. To increase sustain and cut for solos, the
second drive circuit is augmented in the mid-range. Bright, easy to see
LEDs deliver on-stage switching cues so you know exactly where you are
at all times.
As most players today employ pedalboards, the Hollywood features
standard “Boss” style 9V powering that will adapt to most multi-pedal
power supplies. The ultra compact design with top mounted i/o
connections allow pedals to be brought close together for those wishing
maximum pedalboard density.
The Hollywood is a high performance distortion pedal that delivers decades of “American” style tones in a compact and easy to use format. Rock and Roll!
