The Kiko Loureiro Signature Shiba Drive by Suhr is a versatile overdrive pedal designed in collaboration with Megadeth guitarist Kiko Loureiro. It is engineered to provide a natural-sounding overdrive with an open top-end response, ideal for pushing the front-end of a tube amp. The pedal is housed in a unique, spiral-faced enclosure, anodized in a deep saturated Blue and accented with futuristic and translucent control knobs.
Key Features:
- Amp-Like Dynamics: The pedal responds to every nuance of the player's
playing with definition and clarity, similar to the overdrive channel of a
tube amplifier.
- 50% More Gain: The Shiba Drive Reloaded offers over 50% more gain than the
original Shiba Drive, with increased saturation and upper harmonics, resulting
in improved midrange articulation and more sustain without sacrificing low-end
definition.
- Three-Position Voice Switch: Offers three distinct treble roll-off voicings
for added tonal flexibility.
- Smooth Switch: The redesigned Smooth switch offers flexibility, allowing
players to fine-tune their sound for warm violin-like solos or an open and
defined full-bodied rhythm tone.
Specifications:
- Input Impedance: 1M ohm
- Output Impedance: 600 ohm
- Power Connector: 9Vdc, center negative, 2.1mm x 5.5mm
- Operating Voltage: 4V to 18V (nominal 9V)
