THE HOTCAKE IS DESIGNED TO LEAVE THE UNDISTORTED COMPONENT OF THE GUITAR SOUND UNCHANGED, WHILE PROVIDING A NICE FAT DISTORTION SOUND WITHOUT RESORTING TO A TREBLE CUT CIRCUIT WHICH WILL ALSO AFFECT THE GUITAR TONALITY. 

With the Drive and Presence controls set to minimum, and the Level at around 2 o'clock, you should be hard pressed to hear any change in the sound at all when you switch the Hotcake in and out.

You can get a clean volume boost by increasing the Level control. Increasing the Drive will give you a thick distortion sound with a little bit of edge to it, and the Presence control adds some mid-range punch to the sounds.

The Hotcake also handles chords well.

Note:

Since 2008, The Hotcake has included a jumper switch system. This system allows the user to change the setting to The Hotcake Bluesberry specification. Using the same jumper switch system you have a Bass Accentuation facility. We advise the user that the settings should not be altered on a regular basis - the jumper switch system is in place to allow the user to fix a setting and is not intended as a constant switching option.

It is recommended that the Hotcake is patched between the guitar and amplifier, rather than into an amplifier's effect loop.
Generally speaking, if you are happy with your guitar and amplifier combination, the Hotcake will work well as a primary distortion.

  • Input impedance: 1
  • Megohm. (equivalent to a typical valve amplifier. )

  • Bypass type: Circuit converts into a high quality buffer with simple, quiet, seamless switching, using gold plated contacts.
  • Phase polarity: Non inverting.
  • Continuous current consumption approx. 3.5 mA (LED on)
  • External power supply socket. 9-12VDC, 2.1mm, pin negative. Compatible with most popular AC adapters.
  • If more than one pedal is powered from the same adapter, a regulated type should be used to minimise "hum" (100/120hz) which can be caused by circulating ripple currents.

Gorgeous Tiffany-Blue & Perfect for Travel
I absolutely adore this little jewelry case. I don’t have a huge jewelry collection, so the size is perfect for me. It keeps everything organized without being bulky. The zipper feels very sturdy and smooth — not flimsy at all. And for anyone who loves Tiffany’s blue… the color is almost an exact match. I can set it next to my Tiffany box and it’s nearly identical. It’s such a pretty, luxe-looking shade. Highly recommend.

Convenient
This is great to take with you if you’re going out of town. It’s easier to keep track of your jewelry. It doesn’t take up much room, but holds several rings earrings and three necklaces.

Great for travel
Got this for my wife to use on a trip, this thick cushion makes it feel safe and has a simple look to it but is still nice. Only one zipper so can't really lock it but it's small enough to where you can fit it pretty much anywhere with a lock already
