Simply connect the HB 120 between your amplifier’s output and the speaker itself to get the real and unique sound of your amp overloading, but at a manageable volume. Our units are built to last using only premium and British made parts, so you can drive them as hard as you like, for as long as you like, without any worry.
Dual Mode
We’ve taken the guesswork out of attenuation with our easy to use, two-mode switchable system. In Studio mode the HB120 provides the perfect volume for studio recording or garage-jams. In Jam mode the HB120 reduces your amp to levels ideal for solo practice and bedroom jamming.

Great attenuator!! Built like an absolute tank, yet very delicate on my tone. It sees some amount of abuse and does not seem to mind.

Really like this .a great edge of break up sound at manageable volumes .Doesn’t colour the tone either .I connected it wrong originally and fried the volume pot and Sean very kindly replaced it .I’d like to claim credit that due to my mistakes he’s now added a red colour where the amp input is !

Best attenuator I’ve even owned. I’ve had a few, including Weber Mass Lite and the very popular Jettenuator and Bugera PS1. With the HotBox 120 tone sucking is gone. Tried with Orange, Marshall and Fender amps. Incredibly easy to dial exactly the amount of attenuation I want while the other attenuators give me a volume that is either too low or too loud and suck tone. And when you set the HotBox to 0 no sound comes out. I can’t say the same for any of the others I mentioned.
Ordered and got it the following day. Top notch company and product.

Works as advertised. Used with multiple Amps, 1979 Park nonmaster volume, Ceriatone AH-50, Budda SD45.
I may get another for my other Amps. Quick delivery as well.
