Distortion

DIY PCB for building a Marshall Guv'nor clone - among the first overdrives with 3-band amp-style EQ.

Aion FX from Des Moines, IA has helped guitarists build studio-quality effects since 2011. They specialize in circuits that pioneered features now considered standard.

The Equinox recreates the Marshall Guv'nor/Drivemaster, notable for featuring bass, midrange, and treble knobs for amp-like tone shaping - among the first overdrive pedals to use this type of 3-band tonestack. The circuit delivers aggressive Marshall-flavored distortion with unprecedented EQ control.

The Guv'nor became a favorite among players wanting Marshall stack tones at bedroom volumes. Its 3-band EQ allows sculpting your overdrive tone just like a full amplifier, making it more versatile than typical one-knob "tone" controls. The Aion version includes component options for exploring both Guv'nor and Drivemaster variations.
