Inspired by one of the most revered amps in guitar history, the original Bluesbreaker pedal was released in 1991 and quickly became a staple in the collections of guitarists around the world. With its ability to deliver everything from subtle boosts to full-on drive, it’s no wonder that it’s still highly sought after today.
Rediscover the iconic sound.
The Marshall Bluesbreaker reissue pedal stays true to the original, with a soft clipping circuit that provides organic, responsive tones that are perfect for everything from blues to classic rock. The pedal is housed in a durable black enclosure, with a unique design that was meant to protect the knobs from being stomped on during use.
Seven years after the original Marshall Bluesbreaker pedal was discontinued, the release of John Mayer’s album Continuum in 2006 would make the guitar world take notice of this classic pedal.
