Electro-Harmonix has announced the release of the HOT TUBES vacuum tube Distortion/Sustainer. The HOT TUBES is a vacuum tube driven Distortion/Sustainer that uses a tone shaping circuit and two 12AX7 vacuum tubes to create tones ranging from mild tube amp overdrive to tubedriven screams.

With the HOT TUBES, Electro-Harmonix has fused their mastery of analog effects with the warmth and soulful tones of overdriven vacuum tubes to produce a versatile and extreme effect. The HOT TUBES uses two premium selected 12AX7 vacuum tubes made in New Sensor's tube factory and designed by Electro-Harmonix tube designers. Controls for Master Volume, Gain, Drive, Bass, and Treble let the user dial in the tube-driven tone.

The HOT TUBES is hand-made in New York City and comes packaged in a distinctive pine box. The HOT TUBES is available now at music stores around the world and at www.ehx.com. Suggested retail price is $278.00.
