The original Marshall DriveMaster was a Plexi-style pedal released in the early ’90s and voiced after a JCM800 amp. It was intended to be the successor of the Guv’nor, the first amp-in-a-box inspired by the Marshall Plexi tone, but didn’t reach the same popularity.
To celebrate its 60th anniversary, Marshall has released a reissue of this device that’s a one-to-one copy of the original, with its large black case, flexible 3-band EQ, plus Gain and Volume knobs.
Marshall DriveMaster Reissue, Builder’s Notes
The Drivemaster is based on the original Guv’nor but takes things a stage further with a new tone and drive network. It’s three band tone network acts as if adding an extra amp to your set up, with real Marshall tone and overdrive. The iconic look has also been accurately recreated, right down to the finish of the control knobs and unique shape. There’s plenty of reasons the first edition is so heavily sought after today. This reissue takes everything that made the original so special and replicates it for today’s player.
