Electro-Harmonix Introduces Ravish Sitar FX Pedal
Electro-Harmonix is a company that thrives on creating unique, one-of-a-kind guitar FX pedals. Their most recent addition creates the effect of overtones to emulate the mystical sound of a sitar straight from the strings of your own guitar. The pedal includes dry, lead and sympathetic level controls, lead and sympathetic timbre controls and sympathetic string tuning controls all on the pedal itself.
The highly customizable sound of the Ravish Sitar will be available this month of September 2011 with the price TBA, so keep an eye out for it on Electro-Harmonix home site. With that, I give you more details of the new Ravish Sitar from the manufacturers themselves:
