Shiba Drive Reloaded Pedal

The Suhr Shiba Drive Reloaded pedal is a versatile overdrive pedal designed to deliver classic Blues, Jazz, and Rock style tones. It features an easy-to- tweak layout including Drive, Level, Tone, and a three-position Smooth switch. The Drive control adjusts the amount of drive from the circuit, offering a range from bluesy crunch to smooth, sustaining overdrive. The Level control adjusts the output level of the pedal, providing enough level to push the front end of any tube amp into natural clipping or add sustain to an already overdriven amp. The Tone control shapes the overall tonal response of the pedal, from warm and smooth to bright and cutting.

The three-position Smooth switch offers flexibility, allowing users to fine- tune their sound. The left position activates a mild high-end roll-off, effective for warming up guitars with single-coil pickups. The middle position produces a natural, open-sounding overdrive, while the right position provides a more pronounced high-end roll-off, excellent for chunky rhythms and violin- like lead tones.

The pedal is true bypass via a relay, which produces less popping when switching the pedal on and off. It also features an FX Link connector for remote control, a low battery monitor, and various protection features. The specifications of the Suhr Shiba Drive Reloaded pedal are as follows:
