Rear Left-facing Right-facing Powersupply

As part of the growing line of Tonebone foot pedals, Radial introduces the Headbone VT, a guitar amplifier head switcher that allows the player to transition from, for example, a Mesa Boogie Dual-Rectifier to a Marshall JCM800 while using the same cabinet. The Headbone employs a series of photocells to assure noise-free guitar-to-head switching and a series of high cycle relays that switch between the 2 heads and the speaker. A digital programmable interrupt controller receives commands from the onboard footswitch or the Slingshot remote switching system and controls the transition between equipment to ensure proper amplifier loads are always maintained.

Here's what they don't tell you

It works. I successfully used a Headbone to switch between a Fender Deluxe Reverb reissue and a Mesa Boogie Single rectifier into the single 12 inch speaker of the Deluxe (had to split open a speaker cable to connect to the speaker). Switching is very quiet (no pops), and the unit is very sturdy. However, the biggest problem I had with it was the fact you can't use effects in the effects loop of your amplifier (see the manual on Radial's website). If you don't use any effects, it works great. If you do use effects (especially in the effects loop), then reconsider purchasing one.

The best piece of gear I own.

For years I have wanted a piece of gear that would allow me to switch between the crunch channel of my EL34 Marshall and the clean channel of my 6L6 Mesa Boogie and be able to run both of them on my Marshall cab. Now I have the power! Add a Tube Screamer in the mix and there is no limit to the sounds I can achieve. I play a lot of different styles that call for a lot of different tones. Thanks to the guys at Radial Engineering I now have the tonal freedom I need! This is a must have piece for any player with a multi-amp set up.
