Marshall BluesBreaker Overdrive/Distortion

Marshall's The Guv'nor distortion pedal was a resounding success in the late 1980s, attaining industry-wide acclaim for its authentic British-voiced amp-in-a-box sound. By 1992, the dust had settled, and Marshall was ready to expand its offerings. Enter the BluesBreaker, a vintage-voiced pedal that delivered the smooth, rich warmth and full character of a 1962 Bluesbreaker amplifier. Unfortunately, the original stompboxes have long been difficult — and expensive — to obtain on the used market. Well, that will no longer be a problem, as Marshall is reissuing this revered pedal to honor the company's 60th anniversary. The rebooted pedal offers a direct, one-to-one copy of the original, right down to the iconic graphics, unique enclosure design, and distinctive blue-on-black color scheme. The BluesBreaker boasts a familiar control set, with Gain, Tone, and Volume knobs, for dialing in your sound. You also get a standard footswitch and a red LED status indicator. The original BluesBreaker boxes have been seen on countless stages since their early-'90s debut, and this reissue takes everything that made the original so special and re-creates it for today's guitarist.

The return of a coveted '90s legend

The BluesBreaker reissue isn't just inspired by the original pedal, it's an exact copy of the original pedal. It includes the original's blue-on-black color scheme, the iconic "Marshall" script, and the distinctively shaped enclosure. If you missed out on the BluesBreaker the first time around, stop living in regret. Get your hands on this brand-spanking-new reissue, and revel in the classic vintage sound of a cranked '62 Bluesbreaker. From subtle, crisp sweetness to edgy, harmonic-rich grit, the BluesBreaker pedal faithfully captures the magical tone wielded by Eric Clapton in John Mayall's Bluesbreakers band.
