Product Details
The 20th Anniversary Shiva is the most versatile yet and features two newly voiced channels, added features and a slick new look. The amp is also equipped with a pair of KT88 power tubes and rated at 90 watts.
The clean channel has a new boost circuit with it's own separate gain stage. Unlike the "tone stack bypass" boost on the other Shiva models, this new version keeps the tone controls active all the time. With the boost engaged you can push well into Plexi territory on this clean channel.
The gain channel now has almost twice as much gain on tap and a more refined voice. Two push button switches have been also been added to further shape the tone. Push the "Shift" button and dial up a more "blackface" type of tone with less mids and a softer feel. This setting will please the Dumble favoring players. The "Mode" button will give a more aggressive, "in your face" feel.
There is an "Excursion" control on the back which controls power amp dampening. This helps to dial in a full sound at low volumes or to adjust the right balance of bass to a cabinet and room size. The Shiva also has a Tube-buffered series FX-Loop.
This amp has the optional Reverb feature and you can adjust it separately for each individual channel.
