The Shiba Mini has inherited all of the Classic Hi-Gain DNA of it’s larger sibling, only now it’s harnessed in a smaller more compact pedal board friendly design. Shiba Drive is very popular among players seeking an overdrive pedal that can be used in conjunction with both their amplifier’s clean and overdrive channels.
Capture the searing sound of Suhr’s Shiba overdrive in compact mini-pedal form with the Suhr Shiba Drive Mini! This versatile overdrive pedal sports the same midrange-rich voice of the full-size Shiba, with a 3-knob control configuration that supplies everything from arena-ready classic-rock crunch to warm, deep, and bluesy lead tones with the twist of a knob. In fact, the only significant deviation from the original Shiba is found in the Shiba Drive Mini’s Smooth switch — instead of the three top-end-taming options available on the original, the Shiba Drive Mini comes equipped with its two most popular settings.
Plus, the Shiba Drive Mini features true-bypass switching to keep your tone clean and uncolored when the pedal is disengaged. For the stompbox obsessives out there, pedalboard real estate is always at a premium. Take the Suhr Shiba Drive Mini for a spin to upgrade your ’board with outstanding overdrive, all at a fraction of the size of the original Shiba.
- Identical circuit and tone of the Shiba Reloaded Mini Circuit.
SUHR: UNRIVALED IN CRAFTSMANSHIP
Suhr doesn’t just build handcrafted, boutique-quality instruments and amplifiers — the company creates exceptional tools that fuel musical dreams and artistic passions. John Suhr began crafting custom guitars in the mid-1970s, and by the dawn of the 1980s, he was building made-to-order Pensa-Suhr instruments for a who’s who of top musicians. In the 1990s, John collaborated with celebrated rig builder Bob Bradshaw to design the now-legendary CAA 3+ and 3+SE preamps and the CAA OD-100 amplifier. In 1997, after a stint as senior master builder for Fender’s Custom Shop, John founded his own company, a decision that enabled him to bring to fruition products of unrivaled quality, detail, and craftsmanship.
Today, the Suhr name is synonymous with prestige; a guitar, bass, or amplifier with the Suhr marque garners instant respect. With elite players such as Mateus Asato, Reb Beach, Scott Henderson, James Norbert Ivanyi, Andre Nieri, Pete Thorn, Ian Thornley, Doug Aldrich, and Andy Wood on the company’s roster, you can be certain that your Suhr places you in esteemed company.
