Marshall Guvnor Settings

Post by metalhead384 »

Just got the pedal abot 1 month ago and was wondering if someone could show me some settings they use and the tone they get with it?

I don't have a guitar so I turn the distortion up and tap around the inside of the Guv'nor's guitar input socket with a hair clip to make snapping and popping noises through a 300 watt PA with the shitty reverb up full.

Wow that was definitely the fat mike era.

Original guv'nor or second version.

For guv'nor plus, set your car in D or 1 through 5 (in that order) and return to vendor.

You could ring up Kevin Shields and ask him what settings he used. or not.
