MGV from GGG (Marshall Guv'nor replica). Love it!

I Would like to share this folks. The MGV from General Guitar Gadgets is an outstanding pedal. True Bypass and comes with an extra switch that tweak the diodes for extra gain

I can handle several sounds: crunch, soft overdrive or high gain distortion
I use to have The MIE Guv'nor, DriveMaster and Shredmaster and I may say without hesitation that this kit is the winner.

Even at high-gain settings, the noise is bearable and it is much less fizzy than the original one.

 

I use to have the CB V1 and now I have the crunch box V2, and I 've read from several users that is essentially a Guvnor. I don't think so. I don't own a JCM800 but a closer friend own one that I use very often. The CB sounded nothing like this JCM800

The Guv'nor or this MGV replicate very well the vintage JCM800 tones, the CB goes beyond with much more distortion but sounds more 80's modern distortion..Van Halen maybe?

In this MVG I also find more midrange bite and seems to be less fizzy than the CB and the 3-band EQ is VERY flexible, enough to make up for any sound

 

Geee..If I only could..I really wish...but I am clumsy

I am unable to do anything like this. I have a huge fear of ruined everything. I don't have any prior knowledge of basic electronic or soldering. I don't have patiente either.

So I bought it pre-built from GGG. I found it by chance in Miscellaneous category. Never seen before, maybe just waiting for me

 

It's two way switch and I guess that not really add more distortion, I just notice different texture. Might be for symmetrical - asymmetrical, not sure
