ARIAB (Abbey Road In A Box)...

An easy way to get a guitar sound realistically similar to that obtained from 1959 to 1968 by the famous guitarist Hank Marvin of the “The Shadows”, provided that you are using the right guitar, echo and amplifier, of course!

This new accessory is designed to give the guitarist the same sound as in the original recordings when playing live.

The idea of making this small accessory to be inserted between the guitar and the amplifier came from the notorious inability to get the same sound out of the amplifier speaker as that recorded at the time by Hank Marvin in EMI Studies at Abbey Road London, regardless of the guitar model used.

The first prototype made in the Santa Croce laboratory had been used to record some tunes that had been brought to the attentive listening of members of the various Shadows communities and clubs spread throughout Europe.

The feedback and comments were so encouraging that it was decided to present the ARIAB MK II, in its final version to all those who intervened at the Shadowmania event, which took place in England on September 2 and 3, 2005.

Basically a high pass filter, equipped with a small FET preamp, which compensates for the insertion of the filter.

The unit is powered by a 9v battery.
