The sound of the 1962 'BluesBreaker' amplifier (famously used by Eric Clapton) started a legend, with its smooth tone, rich warmth, full character and musical breakup giving guitarists more expression than ever before. The original BluesBreaker pedal (released in 1992) was designed to distill that coveted sound into a convenient stompbox format, which has since developed a cult following among collectors and become highly sought-after on the used market.
Now, you'll no longer need to peruse second-hand gear sites or pay eye-watering amounts to get your hands on an original BluesBreaker. That's because the Marshall BluesBreaker Reissue pedal accurately delivers all of that mojo and style once again! This replica is capable of providing subtle boosts, clear headroom, and bags of character with extra edge — to carry solos and squeeze out those vital harmonics. Thanks to this stunning reproduction, meticulously designed and hand-built at Marshall's famous Bletchley factory, you can now own the real thing!
