Description

Unleash a world of overdrive possibilities with the Rivera Double Shaman Overdrive pedal, a must-have for guitarists seeking versatility and precision. This dynamic pedal houses two independently footswitchable channels, aptly named LA and Austin, each offering a unique flavor of overdrive. Whether you're after the gritty, soulful tones of Austin's blues-rock or the powerful, soaring overdrive reminiscent of the '80s LA rock scene, the Double Shaman delivers with finesse.

Each channel features its own set of Level, Tone, and Drive controls, allowing you to sculpt your sound with pinpoint accuracy. The innovative Stack/Combo switch further enhances your tonal palette. In Stack mode, single-coil pickups gain a robust, fuller sound, while Combo mode sharpens the focus and definition of humbuckers, making it easy to adapt to any musical context.

The pedal's true bypass switching ensures your guitar signal remains pristine and untouched when the pedal is not in use, maintaining the integrity of your tone. The Rivera Double Shaman is not just an overdrive pedal; it’s a versatile tool that empowers you to explore and express your musical identity with ease.

Key Features:

  • Dual footswitchable channels: LA and Austin for varied overdrive tones
  • Customizable Level, Tone, and Drive controls on each channel
  • Stack/Combo switch for enhanced pickup versatility
  • True bypass switching to preserve your guitar's natural tone
  • Perfect for achieving both classic and modern overdrive sounds

Very nice overdrive

With two individual foot switch-selectable voices, the Double Shaman™ offers a vast range of versatile tones, providing distinct, separate texture ranges via its two “destinations,” Austin (for a modern blues-rock vibe) and LA (classic ’80s rock overdrive). Each destination includes its own controls for Level, Tone, and Drive, plus a Stack/Combo selector for maximum sonic flexibility. The Stack setting allows you to fatten up your Strat or Tele. Want to tighten up your Humbucker? Flip to combo mode.
