BluesBreaker aficionados will know that the Marshall original was famously underpowered - and even with the Volume dimed it never got quite loud enough.

 

Chris and his lead engineer Paul identified 3 weaknesses to the original circuit and set out to solve them. PedalPawn deploys a similar philosophy to JAM Pedals where they’re all about full-fat enhanced output with maximum flavour!

 

The Great British Drive delivers :

  • Huge Output
  • Soaring Sustain
  • Expanded Headroom

Controls - Level, Drive, Tone.

 

You get everything you love about the original Marshall BluesBreaker - just more of it, and with an enhanced output profile.

 

I already have around 20 BluesBreakers in my reference collection, while there is always room for one more great one. And this Great British Drive is undoubtedly my next BluesBreaker.

 

The Great British Drive is £197 and equivalent from the PedalPawn Webstore.

 

I met Chris and Paul for the first time at the recent Birmingham Guitar Show - it’s been on the cards for a while, and I’m delighted to have finally made contact.

 

PedalPawn’s bestseller is still the Texas Twang Dirty Boost, that one’s still on my wishlist. While my next acquisition will be the Great British Drive. The fact that it appeals to my Icelandic side with its kind of Icelandic Flag motif certainly helps proceedings! Hopefully there is a deal to be done here!
