Why is this setup so cool? Because it truly covers all of the bases: the
powerful clean sound from a 100-Watt amp is radically different than a
cranked all-tube 30-Watt amp. A Headbone setup lets you quickly access
the tones from two amps with the convienence of footswitch control right
on your pedalboard. Best of all, you only have to carry around a single
speaker cabinet - a luxury that is best appreciated at two in the morning
after the gig!

Tone chart: two amp heads, one distortion pedal,
one speaker cabinet, six distinct amp tones.
With the Headbone in your rig, you are now able to specify which ampli-
fier you will use for a particular song, passage or even phrase. You do
not have to compromise your tone, or carry around two amp-stacks to
get there. Headbone adds tonal flexibility while reducing the amount of
equipment you must bring to the gig! More tone with less gear.

Do you have a question about the Tonebone Headbone VT and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
Why won't the headbone vt work with solid state amplifiers? And what about stereo out solid state amplifiers. Thank you, I'm not well versed in why this wouldn't work. Jon Smyth
The Radial Engineering Tonebone Headbone VT will not work with solid-state amplifiers because it is designed specifically for use with tube amplifiers. Using a solid-state amp with the Headbone VT could damage both the amplifier and the Headbone, and it voids the warranty. Additionally, the Headbone VT is not designed to handle stereo output from solid-state amplifiers, as it only supports switching between two mono tube amp heads connected to a single speaker cabinet.
