  • Marshall Bluesbreaker Pedal

    Does anyone still own one? I had one years ago.

    Lots of clones out there. Snouse makes one. Keeley makes a 1962 model. There's a BB2 pedal still being sold by Marshall.

        Or I can pay someone an additional 29 to do it for me? Thanks for the link.

          The Snouse Bluesbreakers are identical to the originals except they're true bypass and have better noise filtering. Their parts have a tighter tolerance than the originals, so there's not so much variety in tone. The box looks a lot better than a plain aluminum do-it-yourself box (black with gold lettering). They're $139 regularly, I got mine new on sale from them for $89 with free shipping.

            I saw that on Reverb.com Good price for a hand built pedal. I think the one I used to have was the silver II version. I don't remember my original being black.

              Apparently the King of Tone is loosely based on it. So... I still love my KOT.
              Oh no.....


              Oh Yeah!

                    Analogman King of Tone is probably the Holy Grail of Bluesbreaker based pedals..

                    I am on the waiting list myself.. If you're impatient you can find them on Ebay and Reverb for a premium..

                      For $450 (Reverb), I would just buy another amp.

                              I didn't think the KoT was all that... After all the hype... I was a little let down, and sold it. Went back down to a fulldrive 2. May be that I just like the TS circuit for pushing my amp. I do want to try another BB pedal... And a single channel makes sense, so that snouse makes sense.
                              Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
