Marshall Shred Master Pedal, different vsns?

[Jack_TriPpEr]

I just picked up a used Marshall Shred Master pedal at my local Guitar Center. The label with the name is in red color. Quick search on Ebay shows pedal with same name for sale, but color of the label with the name is gold vs. Red. My Google search for differences between red label vs. gold label versions returned no hits. Anyone know if there is any actual difference in the circuit or components between the two?

I have all four fo the pedals; Guv'nor, Bluesbreaker, Drivemaster, and Shredmaster. Heres a little write up ;

You seem to have boughten a clone, and not a genuine Shredmaster.All Shredmasters had the Gold logo as far as I can tell./

I had to do a little research cause as far as I can tell, all of the pedals were made in England, except the Guv'nor, which was also made not only io England, but later in Korea.

Also, the serial numbers and the made in England stickers on later Shredmaster ( which is essentially the same pedal as a Guv'nor supposedly), Drivemaster, and Bluesbreakers were changed to only have the serlal number on the battery cover and no made in England sticker on the bottom. Its hard to say, the info. is sketchy on the internet, and I had to deduce some of this from what I have compared to what i could find on the internet.

More than you wanted to know, but only the Drivemaster had a red Logo. Both Drivemaster and Shredmaster are a lot alike.

Thanks MetalManiac. I made a mistake, anyways - i was too hasty in my inspection of the pedal.The logo on mine says Drive Master. Thanks for the great info, tho, i'm sure it will help many others.
