Caroline Guitar Company Shigeharu is a classic Muff-style fuzz with the punch of a classic overdrive, and you have nice rocking machine!

Using a cascading hybrid of op-amp and BC184 transistor gain stages, Shigeharu provides all the sweet singing sustain and massive flamethrower gain you crave, but with unprecedented clarity, improved punch and definition, and consistent performance wherever it sits in your signal chain – even after buffers or wireless units.

Combine that with the parallel octave-up voiced fuzz available on demand with the Havoc* stomp and you have a whole lot of nasty right here. Two extra controls reside inside the pedal – a bias/gate control for dialing up broken, spitty sounds, and a slide switch that locks the octave-up “on” and converts the momentary to a kill/mute switch.

The pedal was designed in collaboration with John Snyder at Electronic Audio Experiments, because this thing was fearsome enough to compel us to seek a second opinion.

Caroline Guitar Company

Caroline Guitar Company from France is launched in 2010 after Philippe Herndon unsuccessfully failed to sell his soul to any corporate devils still reeling from the financial collapse. The company has been fortunate to pursue making the things they want, thanks to customers like yourself. They originally meant to just make a handful of these things just to prove they could, and then people wanted more.

Judgement and integrity

The boutique pedal marketplace is flooded with choices and options. They are committed to the idea that what you’re purchasing are not only products, but also judgement and integrity. The company's owner is a former full-time touring and recording player who knows firsthand what sounded great in studios and stages, and who is not content to rest on old ideas of what things should sound like. The company has an old-school pride in their craft. They are one of the first to crowdfund a pedal, and have proudly delivered on advance “pre-order” specials that generated thousands of dollars for local charities.
