Marshall GV-02 GUV’NOR Plus Guitar Effect Pedal Overview:

The new Guvnor Plus is an updated version of the much-loved 80s original. The Guvnor became a classic footpedal known for high quality distortion tones, earning itself a special place in the hearts of distortion smitten guitarists the world over. Within the sturdy metal housing lies the tone, feel and sound of the original Guvnor, but with extra features specially designed to add extra power flexibility to cope with the exacting requirements of todays musicians.

The tonal versatility of the Guvnor Plus is such that it is like adding another Marshall amp to your existing setup. The expanded Gain structure allows you to steer your guitar tone through many different styles. From natural sounding vintage valve amp break-up, ideal for singing blues to chunky JCM800 classic rock tones, right through to modern day super-saturation for liquid sustain and grinding chords. In addition, you will also find a Deep control which adds a resonant bass boost, giving you a similar feel and response to the resonant thump of a Marshall 4 x 12 cabinet.

Features:

• Out Jack
• This is the output of the Guvnor Plus and is for connection to the amplifier or to another effects pedal.
• Gain
• This increases the amount of distortion, taking you from vintage breakup, ideal for big crunchy chords and sweet singing blues, to full on grind with super saturation. The Guvnor Plus features the classic Marshall 3 way tone network to guarantee true Marshall tone at all times and to allow you to add unique Marshall character to any rig.
• Bass
• Adjusts the bass frequencies in your tone. Increasing the amount of bass will generally make your tone warmer and thicker at the bottom end.
• Deep
• This adds an active resonant bass boost to your tone in a way that cant be replicated with traditional tone controls and has a similar effect to the acclaimed JCM2000 Deep switch. Increasing the amount of Deep will add masses of tight bottom end to your tone giving it real low end resonance and incredible fullness.
• DC Input
• For input of a 9V DC negative regulated power supply should you not wish to use batteries.
• LED
• Indicates when the Guvnor Plus is in operation.
• Treble
• Adjusts the high end frequencies in your tone, an increase making it brighter, sharper and more cutting.
• Mid
• Adjusts the middle frequencies in your tone. Adding more middle will fill out your sound and make it fatter. By reducing the amount of middle in your tone you will make it thinner and sharper. Cranking the gain (item 2) up and setting the Mid control to minimum will deliver scooped sounds, ideal for brutal crunch tones.
• Volume
• Adjusts the volume of the Guvnor Plus. This allows you to cut or boost your volume when you switch the pedal on and is ideal for switching from rhythmn to higher volume solo levels. The Volume levels of the Guvnor Plus are greater than previously available on the original Guvnor to allow you to push the front end of your amp harder for even more overdrive.
• In Jack
• This is the input jack, for connection directly from your guitar or to another effects pedal if you are linking pedals together.
• Foot Switch
• For switching the Guvnor Plus on and off.
