Catalinbread’s Super Chili Picoso is a highly desirable guitar effects pedal.
The hand made Super Chili Picoso is the benchmark clean boost pedal that similar pedals are judged against. With up to 35dB of boost at hand, the SCP can drive the input of a tube amp into the type of overdrive that you have probably lusted after for years.
The Super Chili Picoso is based on the “MOSFET BOOST” circuit designed by the great Jack Orman. MOSFETs are the ideal component for FX pedals used to boost and drive amplified guitar tone due to their inherent musical sparkle, HiFi response and ability to produce a “natural” sounding, dynamic overdrive tone. Catalin Bread have squeezed every ounce of tone out of the Super Chili Picoso, utilising the MOSFET to its full potential.
The Super Chili Picoso has three Modes:
• Buffering Mode
• Clean Boost Mode
• Fat Grit Boost Mode
Buffering Mode
To use the SCP in buffering mode, turn the boost knob down to 0 and you have the perfect buffer with high input impedance and very low output impedance. If you are using an all true-bypass chain, a buffer is important or you’ll end up losing a lot of high end.
Clean Boost Mode
This mode provides up to 35dB of boost that will help you cut through the mix or drive your amp into a sublime natural overdrive.
Fat Grit Boost Mode
Flick the switch and your guitar tone is boosted with added girth and musical harmonics that fill-out your sound…huge.
The Super Chili Picoso is pretty much all you could possibly want from a clean boost pedal. It’s simple to use, easily adjustable on the fly and the fat setting and buffer mode are a gigantic plus. You won’t have to rely on front of house operators to control your levels and bring your signal up for solos.
