The Shiba Mini is the Shiba Drive overdrive in a smaller die-cast enclosure, for a crowded board. It keeps the Shiba's focus on saturation, upper harmonics and midrange articulation with a defined low end, and it works into an amp's clean channel or in front of its drive channel. Suhr states the circuit and tone are identical to the Shiba Reloaded Mini.
Drive, Tone and Level sit alongside a two-position Smooth switch. Left rolls off the high end for chunky rhythm and a violin-like lead, right keeps the full presence of the pedal. It is true bypass, with an on/off status light, and runs from any 9Vdc center-negative supply.
The full-size Shiba Drive Black Edition has a third Smooth position, tuned for warming up single coils. For high gain in the same small format, look at the Riot Mini Black Edition.
