The SC-1-CS is finished with an appearance designed for musicians. The die-cast case is unpainted, and the characters and other markings are printed on labels and manually attached individually. Each unit also includes a handwritten signature by the developer, Yukihiro Hayashi, on the inside of the back cover.
BACKGROUND & DEVELOPMENT
As for sound quality, we aimed for a smooth and glossy sound, as the name suggests. We tried changing the solder and parts in many ways, but we could not obtain a sound that we were satisfied with until we discovered a special board manufacturing method. This manufacturing method was born out of coincidence, and we cannot disclose the details as it is now proprietary. It is a time-consuming process, so the production volume is limited, but it is an essential process that cannot be omitted. As a result of much trial and error, we believe that we have achieved a guitar sound that exudes sex appeal, to the point where you can keep SILKY COMP on at all times. Please enjoy the rich sound of SILKY COMP.
FEATURES
- A special soldering process during printed circuit board assembly provides sound with natural sustain and clarity.
- Special true-bypass method in which the signal goes through only one line when the switch is in Bypass mode.
- The ATTACK control allows variation in sound.
- Exceptional sound stability by using long-life high reliability components.
