DESCRIPTION

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.
