Suhr Shiba Drive | Black Edition
Smooth & Dynamic Overdrive
The Suhr Shiba Drive Black Edition is a versatile overdrive pedal that offers rich, warm tones suitable for both rhythm and lead playing. Designed to enhance midrange articulation and sustain without sacrificing low-end definition, it responds dynamically to your playing, much like a tube amplifier. The 3-Position Smooth Switch provides flexible tonal shaping, allowing you to adjust the top-end response for everything from smooth solos to chunky rhythms. With advanced features like true bypass, FX Link for remote switching, and a low battery monitor, the Shiba Drive ensures reliable, high-quality performance for both professional and hobbyist musicians.

The Suhr Shiba Drive Black Edition is a versatile overdrive pedal designed to deliver rich, warm tones for guitarists seeking fat rhythm and smooth lead sounds. With its fine-tuned gain staging, it emphasises saturation and upper harmonics, which enhances midrange articulation and sustain. This allows players to enjoy clear, defined tones with sustained notes while maintaining solid low-end definition.
One of the key features of the Shiba Drive is its smooth, amp-like performance. The pedal has been designed to work well with both single-coil and humbucking pickups, offering dynamic responsiveness that mirrors the behaviour of a tube amplifier's overdrive channel. By adjusting the volume knob on your guitar, you can easily transition from a pushed clean tone to full-on overdrive, providing a wide range of sounds for various playing styles, from blues to classic rock.
The 3-Position Smooth Switch further enhances tonal flexibility. This switch allows players to adjust the top-end response to suit different playing preferences. The left position rolls off some high-end, ideal for warming up single-coil pickups. The middle setting provides a natural, open overdrive sound, while the right position cuts more high-end, perfect for achieving chunkier rhythms and violin-like lead tones. This range of options makes it easy to shape the sound to your exact needs.
In addition to its core features, the Shiba Drive Black Edition offers advanced functionality for professional use. Its true bypass switching ensures minimal tone colouration when the pedal is off, while the relay switch reduces popping sounds when turning the pedal on or off. The FX Link connector allows remote switching through an external switch, pedal board, or loop switcher, offering seamless integration into any setup. Additionally, the low battery monitor alerts users when the battery is running low, and the pedal automatically switches to true bypass if the battery voltage becomes insufficient for proper operation. This ensures reliable performance at all times.
The Suhr Shiba Drive Black Edition is an ideal choice for musicians seeking a high-quality, dynamic overdrive pedal that can be tailored to a wide range of tones, while offering advanced features for enhanced usability and reliability.
