Suhr Eclipse

Suhr · pedal

The Suhr Eclipse is a dual-channel overdrive and distortion offering two completely independent channels, each with its own Gain, Level and passive three-band EQ, in the manner of a channel-switching amplifier. Into a clean amp that makes it effectively a three-channel rig: one channel covers clean boost through warm bluesy breakup, the other tight, aggressive high-gain lead tones. A Voice control fine-tunes the top-end response to suit the amp being used, taming harshness or adding cut. The overall character is warm, organic and amp-like rather than fizzy, holding note definition even at high gain. Remote FX-link switching allows channel changes from an external controller. Reviewers note the two channels cannot be stacked or run in parallel, and that the Classic voicing is not aimed at modern metal.
