New Radial London Bone review
« on: January 30, 2009, 02:49:11 AM »
Hi guys just finished messing with my new pedal here. And I thought that you guys might appreciate knowing about this pedal and just how great it is. I have played it for a few days now and it is really nice.

The Benefits of this pedal are:
Awesome High Gain Saturation this is a pedal you won't need a Sustain pedal for it is thick and rich. . OPPOSITE of thin rattly MT2 type sounds. Thin is not in this pedal. Think Large tones.

Awesome tone sculptability (Very sensitive High and Low knobs) I have messed with it and found the places I liked and I marked them with a marker. Its got lots of great tones, and in the dozens of sounds you can get out of it you have to look to find the perfect one(s) but they are in there. Also this pedal features a 7-12db mid range boost switch I keep mine at 7. Also a flat dark or bright switch to match it to your amp

Very good High Gain sounds great if you like (Metallica-Slash- Joe Perry-Randy-EVH-Zakk Wylde) Its in here. Even gilmour lead tones. Getting Jimmi Hendrix is possible but you have to EQ it quite a bit.

Two channels.  Second sounds better than the first. Need I say more?

Ok the difference with this pedal and other distortions is this one dosent really increace your volume all that much.

One con is that the pedal has its own tone so to speak. I wish it was a touch more Transparent. I like my Orange TT tone and would like to hear the amp a touch more. I guess the pedal is a distortion not a boost and it will give you the sounds that I mentioned pretty spot on. good pedal glad I sold my bulldog.

Here is a link to a demo of this pedal I find that when I turn the low knob to 8:30 9:30  and the high to 10 it sounds a lot better that he demoed it here, but I like the way it sounds.

Its almost 160 usd -much cheaper. The Plexi was what I wanted. Of course we all know that Amp Distortion is way better
