Sabbadius Electronics Mr White Special Used

The Sabbadius Mr White was designed to recreate the classic tones associated with two of the most iconic guitar players in history: Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan. The Mr White Special II Booster excels at enhancing guitar solos, adding harmonic richness, and simulating the feel of an overdriven tube amplifier.

During the development of the Mr White, Sabbadius drew inspiration directly from the legendary gear used by both artists. Stevie Ray Vaughan shaped his warm, expressive tones with amplifiers such as Dumble, Fender Super Reverb, Vibroverb, and Bassman models. Jimi Hendrix, known for his experimental approach, relied on a wide range of studio equipment including Dual Showmans, Bassmans, Guild preamps, and Marshall amplifiers.

The Mr White helps recreate those big, rich, and dynamic Hendrix and SRV-inspired tones in a compact pedal format.

Seven ways to use the Sabbadius Mr White Special II:

1. Push the front end of your amplifier to create more saturation and richer midrange.
2. Simulate cranked tube amp tones at lower volume levels.
3. Recover frequencies lost in long effects chains or large pedalboards.
4. Use as a clean boost for solos or to drive other gain pedals, depending on placement.
5. Act as a preamp to warm up your tone when running directly into a console.
6. Engage the “Jimi Magic Preamp” switch to increase harmonics, saturation, and bass response.
7. Add dynamics to acoustic guitars and reduce hum from soundhole pickups.
