Based on a classic, the Electro-Harmonix Hot Tubes Nano overdrive pedal gives your guitar tone an edge. It's designed just like the original CMOS Hot Tubes pedal from the 1970's, and it's incredibly responsive to your playing dynamics. As you dig into your playing harder, the Hot Tubes Nano responds with aggression. Back off your volume control and it cleans up nicely, just like you'd expect from a tube amplifier. And if you're touchy about your tone (aren't we all?), there's even a tone circuit bypass switch that completely removes the tone circuit from your signal path. All this in a rugged die-cast chassis makes the Electro-Harmonix Hot Tubes Nano a sweet overdrive solution.
With the price of vintage Hot Tubes soaring, countless guitarists have requested that we re-issue our 1970s Hot Tubes. Since its initial release in 1978, countless musicians have prized the scorching tube amp simulation the Hot Tubes delivers. They consider the original Hot Tubes to be indispensable, so it is rarely available on the vintage market. The EHX Hot Tubes’ Volume and Overdrive let you go from a gentle rasp that caresses your notes to a full-blown gain monster with a powerhouse punch. Sculpt your sound with the Tone control, or take a detour around the tone circuit with the Tone On/Off switch. True bypass for a pristine signal chain.
Get the exact same tone and drive as the 1970s original!
