I like the Shredmaster. This is a welcome release by Marshall.
As always props to Steve Smith for doing a proper demo.

I have been using the Shred Master since '92 or so. Tried many others and no other really compare. I tried to by a vintage Drive Master to replace it and it is broken. Early Fall I started to build and paint a Gov'ner clone, that was a fail so far. I have had a Blues Breaker clone on my board for more than 5 years. It has a mix between clean and dirty as a feature, better as a boost IMO.
As far as the demo goes, I really do like how Steve does his videos. A very practical demo maker that uses the gear how most of us would. Maybe I am getting old but these pedals at $245 US seem a bit much to me. Hopefully even after Thomann botched the roll out of these, it will be a rousing success. As a side note, Marshall still has a least two or so amps in the top ten selling amps for the big quantity sellers.
