Radial StageBug SB-1 Acoustic - Compact Brilliance for Active Musicians
The Radial SB-1 Acoustic is your ideal companion for active musicians who demand top-notch sound quality without sacrificing portability. This compact active direct box is designed to fit snugly in your guitar case, making it the smallest Radial DI box ever. Don't be fooled by its size—this Stage Bug delivers outstanding performance for acoustic guitarists and more.
Ultra-Compact and Feature-Rich
The SB-1 features a standard 1/4" instrument input with a thru-put to connect to your tuner or on-stage amplifier. Its ultra-quiet active circuitry takes your high-impedance instrument signal and converts it to low impedance, significantly reducing noise susceptibility. It then buffers and balances the signal for long cable runs to your PA system, ensuring pristine sound quality.
One standout feature of the SB-1 is its 48V phantom powering capability. You won't need batteries or an external power supply—just plug in your instrument, and you're good to go. The active circuit boasts a well-thought-out 220k-ohm input impedance, providing a smooth, warm sound that's perfect for your audio system. This is particularly crucial when connecting vintage guitars with low-output pickups, whether for recording or reamping.
The SB-1 also includes a -15dB pad to accommodate even the loudest instruments with ease. It's not limited to acoustic guitars; electric bassists and keyboardists will appreciate the SB-1's versatility. To combat feedback issues, simply toggle the 180-degree polarity switch to eliminate troublesome hot spots on stage.
The Radial StageBug SB-1 Acoustic may be small in size, but it delivers a big, heartwarming sound that's perfect for active musicians.
