A bunch of OD's & Distortions these days are based off these little bad lads! It's awesome to see the OG's back - And they're a bunch cheaper than buying a vintage one!
I appreciate your enthusiasm and for taking the trouble to respond. There's no doubting the pedigree and you're right in pointing out the appeal might be to those considering forking out for the originals. I think the point stands that the playing field is ramjammed with competitors.
For $250 ? Idk . Pedal Pawn only paid $140 for his . plus Andertons said they thought the price point was going to be around $150-$170 . Then to see $250! F**K THAT ! lol . I own an OG Guv . I paid $200 and that's because they USED to be rare .
wich of these ... would make "me" come nearly the Guns N Roses Slash "sound" ?!!! I think all of them sounds AMAZING and Powerful !!!!! i'm Amazed !!! Great Rock n Roll play !!!!
The Drivemaster and Guv'nor seem almost identical, if not completely identical. You may be right about there being a bit more breakup or gain in the low end of the pedal. I bought a Guv'nor and Shredmaster. May add the Drivemaster and Bluesbreaker at some point.
Oh fk yeah Big D i traded mine away back in the day bc I never thought the good ole days would end but time has given me the wisdom to buy these now and never let them go again.
I actually bought the drive master yesterday. Plugged it my Marshall dsl 5c amp in. There was it. Being able to tweak between "guv'nor" like tones up to hard rock lands with almost no limits. That was the gem for me. I damn love your work Dagan. Keep it up man. Cheers from Belgium 🤘🤘
I love the Gov'ner, but does it make any sense to play it over a Marshall amp??? Many M. amps already have a boost pedal and you can always turn the gain up... I use mine to run over a fender Bassman, to turn it into a versatile amp for our blues/rock cover band.
I owned an original bluesbreaker and governor back in the early eighties but I guess I didn't know how to dial them in, so I sold them. Most of my 50-plus playing years I've always been mainly a guitar straight into the amp except for the occasional tube screamer or my current mojomojo pedal which works great for me.
Not gonna lie, I thought this dude was too much at first, but he just loves guitars and rock guitar as much as me…..you fucking rule Degan. Do you have a “1” on your left thumb for syn? 😮
Like a kid in a candyshop.. i had the marshall bluesbreaker 2 pedal and it was nothing like the original BB...and now after seeing this want to buy a drivemaster its awesome 🤟😆🤟
Its named "The Guv'nor" not because of Jim, but because someone heard the pedal being played in prototype and exclaimed "What's that? THAT'S THE GUV'NOR!!!"
Glad they brought back the ShredMaster, that's the one pedal that Radiohead fans flock to given that their lead guitarist Jonny Greenwood is notorious for using one in his setup
Cool. I did not know that. I have an original Shredmaster. Needs a new switch installing (I have a spare) and a bit of cosmetic repair round the inputs at the back but otherwise it's still solid.
The pedal does some breakup into a 100% clean amp, you just have to turn it up most the way on gain/volume. I run mine into a Ibanez TSA15 (6v6) and it sounds awesome, pairs well with a Klon type pedal too (or honestly any OD I've tried it with).
Man, hearing those Nuno chords at the end made it worth the entire viewing - like a decadent dessert after a fine meal. You did that just for me, didn’t you?! 🤘🏻
Awesome Review Dagan. Love your work.. Recently discovered your channel... your reveiw on the Epiphone "inspired by Gibson" '58 Flying V convinced me to buy one... so thanks for that. Just wondering what model is the Marshall amp you're playing in this video?
Paid £50 for an original Guv'nor when them were released, sold it for £100 and watched the prices go through the roof over the years......£179 for the Vintage Reissues? Not terrible.
Here in the US they are $250 ..... I'll pass LOL . I own a OG Guv . It would have been nice to have a back up . I'd rather buy a Strymon pedal of sorts .
I've got the original Bluesbreaker, it's fantastic (cranked). I'm happy they released these again, just wish they were $149 instead of $249 so I could get more of them O:-)
I got a govner in high school and thought it blew cause it didn’t sound like And Justice for All. Traded it for a super American metal dod. Wish I still had both
@@PMTVUKWell why not show the Blackstar in the vid and make it more obvious? Anyway the Blackstar is a valve amp too so I stand by my original comment. You'll get a better tone cranking the amp. Now, if this was a Fender amp or anything that can't do the high gain valve amp tone, then yeah in that scenario, these pedals would be great. In front the Marshall, and to a lesser extent, the Blackstar? Pointless.
@@TheBloggingMusician A JCM800 needs to be stupid loud to sound good, plus plenty of Marshall’s either have no master volume, single channel or shares EQ between channels, so not always ideal to set the amp dirty if you want variety. Not to mention the weird effects loops on amps back in the 90’s, if they had them! Plus plenty of players borrow amps when playing gigs and therefore get their tones from pedals. It’s hugely common for guitarists in the UK to use pedals into Marshall’s set clean because they are cheap here. Plus it’s a good idea for a UK store to be more inkeeping with the average British musician than US ones.
@@3rdStoreyChemist Still not convinced. These 'amp in a box' pedals are great into clean amps, but something like an SD1 would be better to boost the dirty channel of a Marshall. You don't buy a Marshall to run it clean.
@@TheBloggingMusician You missed my point, people do run them into clean channels. Legends like Gary Moore actually used a Guv’nor into the clean channel on a Soldano. If it’s good enough for him... But people have had a lot of success using these as boosts, the Bluesbreaker is a classic for that exact use these day and if you play with the EQ in the others, you can get something useful as well. The Shredmaster is the one that mostly requires a clean, bright amp.
Or you could add another €250 and buy a DSL20h and get all the tones of these 4 pedals plus an actual amplifier to boot. How does marshall pretend to sell this to younger buyers with no nostalgia hype for these items? A €250 price tag is not the way for sure.
We LOVE these new Marshall Vintage Reissue Pedals! 🔥 What do you think?!
They sound great, but I'd rather the smaller gold ones for looks and size.
@Gary No cheap labour in Milton Keynes these days. We've gone up in the world lol :P
bro of course if you run the pedals through a marshall it will sound like a marshall 🤣
@@carminegraves take it you didn't actually watch the video? He specifically says in the first couple of minutes that he's not using a Marshall amp.
@@DruEllz bro you can see it
When Dagan loves something it’s truly a joy to behold. Great video. Fabulous tones.
1st 🎉🎉🎉
nice
Sick! I remember when these came out the first time. Get yourself a Fender amp, and one of these pedals = Fender clean & Marshall crunch.
I think there's a real hole in the market for overdrive and distortion pedals. Glad they spotted it.

Definitely worth getting this tone back in your life!!🤘
Fantastic, brilliant playing.
As a beginner, you have just gone through every tone I want to be able to play pretty much. Thanks. 🤟
Glad to help!🤘
Gotta have the Guv’nor!
Hell yeah! 🤘
Now this is truly something to get excited about! Now I just need to round up some funds...
They all sound awesome👍🏻🤘🏻 I am definitely going to pick up 1 or maybe 2!! Awesome review Dagan!!!
I was blown away by the tones, the blues-breaker sounds amazing.
They all sound so good I guess I’ll have to 1 of each
Me too 😂🤘
If only I could afford it, to go next to my rat, tube screamer, ds2, not sure I need another drive pedal
We agree 😉
@@pads-zr9ln This is a totally different flavour to those other excellent drive pedals. Definitely worth saving up for! 🤘
@@marshallampsGOATS
I still have my original Guvnor bought in '89. Used for years with Marshall 50 head. Brilliant
Guvnor or Drive Master. Thats the question
It's stupid how good it sounds... It's marvelous. Great vid. Best wishes to all of you ❤
Which one is your favorite after 6 months dagan ?
I’m curious to what these reissues will have on the resale value on the original model.
It will be interesting for sure!

The question is does the Bluesbreaker pedal get Claptons Beano tone which made the JTM45 famous.
I love the Gov'ner, but does it make any sense to play it over a Marshall amp??? Many M. amps already have a boost pedal and you can always turn the gain up... I use mine to run over a fender Bassman, to turn it into a versatile amp for our blues/rock cover band.
Gary Moore in a box. I can't believe they're finally back!
Love that Extreme lick. Tasty!
Loved the originals. These are awesome.
Hell yeah, Aljon! 🤘
Super stuff lad! Thanks for the demo.. i loved the governor..& your great playing...
It's such an awesome pedal! 🤘
Excellent,thanks Dagan,just ordered one of each!!
Enjoy! 🤘🤘🤘
Gibson + Marshall = Awesome!! Great review!!
I've wanted the Gov'nr for years man.
I am so thankful to have stumbled on this channel recently, been binge watching lately, love your enthusiasm, keep it up please
Welcome aboard! 🤘

You either mean "early 90s" or you've got a time machine.
@@DruEllz Well, I'm 66 so the fact that I even remembered that I had them is an accomplishment!

Thanks Bruce! It's actually a '13' 🤘
Damn the Guv'Nor sounds kickass.
Marshall? Dagan? Instant click.
Like a kid in a candyshop.. i had the marshall bluesbreaker 2 pedal and it was nothing like the original BB...and now after seeing this want to buy a drivemaster its awesome 🤟😆🤟
When is Dagan going to have his twin brother Russell on the show? That would be freaking awesome
**Radiohead fan's wallet suddenly becomes empty**
🤣🤣
Its named "The Guv'nor" not because of Jim, but because someone heard the pedal being played in prototype and exclaimed "What's that? THAT'S THE GUV'NOR!!!"
Dagan's Metal expressions while playing just steal the show!🤘 you can play Dude 🎼most excellent demo on these new Pedals 🙏🔊⛓☠🦇
Thanks! 🤘

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
🤘 🤘
I love how much fun Dagan is having here! 😂
It was a damn good day at work, I’ll tell ya that! 🤘⚡️
Nice demo but please slow down when you’re talking ! We know you’re excited.
Jonny Greenwood uses the dynamics on the Shredmaster to a tee.Airbag is just one.Well done on the demo !
Which part of Airbag? Just the intro riff?
I discovered that actually the BluesBreaker was essentially a JTM45 combo with tremolo but I guess that the pedal is basically a treble booster

Wow.. the original DRIVE master had more presence
Had 2 Shred Masters in the 90’s! Getting one of these ASSP‼️😎🔥 The contour control alone is worth the price of this!
Unholy Confessions 🤟That Shredmaster sounds amazing, reminds me of some of the tones my DSL can make.
Ello Gov'nor🚖
Man, hearing those Nuno chords at the end made it worth the entire viewing - like a decadent dessert after a fine meal. You did that just for me, didn’t you?! 🤘🏻
Finally, the dream came true.
🤘🤘
That Zacky Vengeance has got me breakin out my old tabs D fuckn a
Got an original drivemaster off ebay about 2 years ago for £90!
Which one is the hardest and does it Doom?
Asking the real questions...
Stacked with a Rat I'm sure they will haha
😳🤯👊😁 Dagan!
I just pre ordered the Shred Master.
I will love a silver jubilee pedal from marshall
But is it good for ac dc
Hell yeah! ⚡️
Marshall and Gibson. A British-American marriage that is as well paired as peanut butter and jelly.
Agreed!
Or Megan and Harry
@@gitarman666 😂😂😂😂😂

Just wondering what model is the Marshall amp you're playing in this video?
Blackstar according to the link .
I have the original shred master; haven’t used it in yrs! Looking forward to getting the Governor pedal!
NICE! 🤘
The Shredmaster is the same pedal as the Guvnor, although it's missing the Guvonr's fx loop.
I think the new sound better
Pre-ordered my gov'nor yesterday
Paid £50 for an original Guv'nor when them were released, sold it for £100 and watched the prices go through the roof over the years......£179 for the Vintage Reissues? Not terrible.
cheap
Here in the US they are $250 ..... I'll pass LOL . I own a OG Guv . It would have been nice to have a back up . I'd rather buy a Strymon pedal of sorts .
Gary Moore had one but I don't need it !
wow!!!
Guvnor for me !
It's SO GOOD isn't it!
@@PMTVUK , it really is.
자막을 꺼놓다니 조회수를 포기했나..
was that chiodos?
I love his Kramer Pacer, but I’m glad he’s switching it up with the guitars. Keep rocking Dagan🤟
Gotta whip out the showstopper for special pedals like these!🤘
i had a shredmaster back in the late 90s
Argh… wish I’d never sold my original Drivemaster..:
Perfectly good strats behind you and you continue to use humbuckers on a Bluesbreaker 🤦🏻♂️
I've got the original Bluesbreaker, it's fantastic (cranked). I'm happy they released these again, just wish they were $149 instead of $249 so I could get more of them O:-)
Just ordered mine!
Good grief, Dagan! 🫢😮🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
I got a govner in high school and thought it blew cause it didn’t sound like And Justice for All. Traded it for a super American metal dod. Wish I still had both
What riff is that at the 20:30 mark? Recognize it but can’t place it.
Yes they sound different. Not better though. Dig the new ones
Initially Interested in the Shred master but I think I’ll go with the Drive Master!
Technically aren't these the second reissue ???
Happy to say that you are the poster boy of 70's - 80's rock in every way..including the accent. That aside, I am so glad these pedals came back.
Please make a gear guide "Japanese Rock Tone"
Which amp are you using? That JCM 800 doesn't seem to be plugged in.
All linked in the description like he mentions! 🤘
@@PMTVUK So the Blackstar St. James 50 6L6 Combo Amp?
Is Dagan wearing a ROlex?
Don't get it. A 'Marshall in a box' into a Marshall? Surely just turn up the gain on the amp and go into the Marshall direct?
Dagan’s not plugged into that Marshall 👍 Like he mentions in the video, all the info is in the description.

I don't use anything but a Les Paul into a Marshall amp, but these things could change my mind.
I'm going to buy these just because they're Marshalls.
Sounds like great news indeed, but why aren't they available anywhere?
They're still in stock here at PMT! - This is the first batch though, they're selling really fast!
They definitely do the trick
Not impressed at all with these. I don’t need a pedal to make my jcm to sound more like a jcm.
Yeah, but what if all you have is a Vox, or Fender Amp, and you want the Marshall vibe. PERFECT!
They are back…and already sold out
not sold out in PMT store
Were there other Marshall pedals that were not so great ?
They’re still great, these are just the originals and absolute perfection, if I don’t say so myself 🤌
It's funny, in 1989, I paid a mere $85.00 USD and now they're charging $230.00 USD
Do these still go in the effects loop?
yes
They can do if you want!
The old Drive Master sounds like a real Marshall's amp. IMHO, all of the reissues sounds like american amps, it has more of punch.
They’re the same
Great retro gear. But expensive modern prices, during a recession I'm sorry to say....
expensive??? what recession??? u feelin ok
