Ruby Stone Premium
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the Shigemori Ruby Stone Premium is a Japanese boutique overdrive that elevates the acclaimed Ruby Stone design to new heights. Developed by Shigemori, a respected effects pedal artisan, this premium version combines a rich, natural drive with exceptional responsiveness and tonal versatility. At the heart of the Ruby Stone Premium lies a refined circuit that allows the key controls to interact in subtly powerful ways. The Gain knob summons a wide range of overdrive flavors, from light and transparent to thick and saturated, while the Tone control shapes the EQ with surgical precision - smoothing out high-end bite or accentuating midrange presence as needed. Importantly, the pedal maintains clarity and separation even when dimed, ensuring your essential guitar tone shines through. The Ruby Stone Premium's secret weapon, however, is its dynamic sensitivity. Pick attack, guitar volume, and amp settings all dramatically influence the pedal's voice, allowing you to coax a stunning array of overdriven tones. Experienced players will revel in the nuanced interplay between their hands and this exceptional drive pedal. Housed in a rugged, machined aluminum enclosure, the Ruby Stone Premium balances durability with tonal resonance. Early and later versions of this model offer slightly different voicings, giving discerning guitarists even more creative options. Whether on stage or in the studio, this premium overdrive is a masterful tool for sculpting your ultimate lead and rhythm tones.
