Rediscover the iconic sound.
In 1989, the Guv’nor broke the mould as the first pedal to deliver the sound of a Marshall stack in a compact form. With its hard clipping circuit and robust metal construction, the Guv’nor set a new standard for distortion pedals. Today, this vintage reissue is here to do it all over again.
From soft, driven tones to full-on distortion, the Guv’nor can handle it all. This faithful reproduction stays true to the original, with the same design and sound that made it a classic.
The original formula, refined for today’s guitarist.
Built in the same factory that has been crafting Marshall amplifiers for over six decades, the Guv’nor is a testament to the brand’s commitment to quality and authenticity. Whether you’re a fan of classic rock, heavy metal, or anything in between, the Guv’nor is the perfect addition to your rig and a reminder of the glory days of rock.
