Description
The Riot Reloaded takes Suhr’s award-winning Riot and Shiba Drive circuits back into the lab, refining them through extensive comparison across guitars, amps, and pickup types. The goal wasn’t to reinvent the wheel but to sharpen it — retaining the aggressive, cutting character that made the original Riot a pedalboard staple while opening up new tonal territory that responds to the most common feedback from players who’ve lived with the originals night after night.
For signal-chain placement, this sits comfortably in the distortion/overdrive slot ahead of your amp, ready to push a clean tone into snarling saturation or stack with other gain stages for added texture and harmonic complexity. Whether you’re layering it after a boost for extra push or running it solo for a defined, cutting distortion voice, the Reloaded circuit is built to respond dynamically to pick attack and guitar volume changes.
- Built on the foundation of Suhr’s Riot and Shiba Drive circuits
- Reworked internals deliver a distinct tonal palette beyond the originals
- Refinements shaped directly by player feedback and most-requested features
- Distinctive spiral-faced enclosure finished in a deep, saturated anodized color
- Translucent control knobs give it a modern, futuristic look on the board
For players who loved the original Riot’s cut and touch sensitivity but wanted more range from the gain and tone controls, the Reloaded is the natural next step — same pedigree, sharpened edges.
