I don't know if these are of any interest here but I have some effects boxes and pedals for sale or trade. Let me know if you are interested.

-----------------------------------

1970's Electro Harmonix Deluxe Electric Mistress Flanger/Filter Matrix - EH1318 (not a re-issue) - $120 obo

I am the original owner, I purchased it in the late 1970's. It has been in storage for the last 20+ years and has never been gigged. I am selling it because I simply don't use it. It has been cleaned and functions as it should. Since this unit is 110AC powered, it has never been opened. The little stick-on rubber feet are missing. Please see the pics below.

Description from electroharmonix.com website:
"The classic analog flanger. An array of critically notched and tuned filters gracefully sweep the sound spectrum, creating shimmering, ethereal passages that are truly out of this world. Exclusive Filter Matrix mode disengages the automatic sweep, allowing manual positioning of the filter bank to achieve chime-like metallic tones and other unique effects. Used by the legendary Jimmy Page on his early smash hits."

Adjustable color, range and sweep rate
Filter matrix mode for manual flanging and frozen tonal colors
Extended color range

Power: direct 110v AC - 2 prong plug (not a wall wart)

1970's Electro Harmonix Bad Stone Phase Shifter - EH-5800 ver.1 (not a re-issue)- $100 obo

I am the original owner, I purchased it in the late 1970's. It has been in storage for the last 20+ years and has never been gigged. I am selling it because I simply don't use it. It has been cleaned and functions as it should. The little rubber feet are still attached. The original foam cushion on the inside is still attached, but it is falling apart. I covered it in tape so the foam will not get all over the components inside. Please see the pics below.

Description from electroharmonix.com website:
"The Bad Stone was released 1975 and produced until 1981. It was designed by Bob Bednarz and it was the first phase shifter to employ feedback in the circuitry. It compasses 6 stages of phases shifting with variable feedback. One speciality of this phaser is the manual mode, which lets you dial in the phase shift manually instead of using the LFO (low frequency oscillator). This enables a whole new dimension of sounds achievable, although no sweeping will occur in the manual mode."

Controls (on top)
Rate knob: controls the speed/rate of the LFO wave that controls the effect
Blend knob: controls the mix of dry/wet signal
Color switch: Switches between a Phased and Vibrato like sound
Bypass switch: switches between phased and normal
Power ON/OFF switch (on front)

Requires (2) 9V batteries (included)

1970's JAX Fuzz Wah Pedal (by Shin-Ei)- $100 obo

This is a Jax Fuzz Wah pedal made by Shin-Ei from the 1970's. It is in great condition inside and out and has all four rubber feet still attached. It has an under pedal switch to activate the wah, and a top mounted switch that activates the fuzz. It has two knobs on the side, one to adjust fuzz and one for the volume and a tone color switch as well. It is believed that fuzz circuit is exactly the same as the legendary Univox Superfuzz (which was built for Univox by Shin-Ei). The Superfuzz has been used by many artists including: Pete Townsend; Mudhoney; J. Mascais (Dinosaur, Jr); and William Reid (Jesus and Mary Chain).

I am the original owner, I purchased it in the mid 1970's. It has been in storage for the last 20+ years and has never been gigged. I am selling it because I simply don't use it. It has been cleaned and functions as it should. Please see the pics below.

Requires (1) 9V battery (included)

1970's Earth Sound Research Graphic Fuzz - $200 obo

This little orange stomp box is from the 1970's. This is basically a fuzz with a variable filter, like a wah but without the actuating pedal It also has a serious boost control as well. Small, but powerful. I am the original owner, I purchased it in the mid 1970's. It has been in storage for the last 20+ years and has never been gigged. I am selling it because I simply don't use it. It has been cleaned and functions as it should. The little rubber feet are still attached. Please see the pics below.

Requires (1) 9V battery (included)

Kay Fuzz-Tone Pedal (made late 1960s to early 1970s) - $400 obo

I hate using words like; RARE; VINTAGE; HARD-TO-FIND. But this one fits the bill.

This Kay Fuzz Tone is in great shape considering its age. It still has its rubber base, though the rubber is cracking at the corners and the Kay logo on the treadle is gone. I am the original owner, I purchased it in the late 1970's. It has been in storage for the last 20+ years and has never been gigged. I am selling it because I simply don't use it. It has been cleaned and functions as it should. Please see the pics below.

Excerpt from guitarplayer.com 1/2000
"The Kay looks so cheap it's hard to take seriously, but this orange plastic pedal produces wet, flatulent fuzz and does the Octavia thing very nicely when the pedal is maxed. The pedal controls tone only; to bypass the effect, you must reach down and flick a little switch. Very Hendrixy and cool for chords, the Kay sounds like a combination of Octavia and Fuzz Face -- a lot of textures for virtually no controls."

The Kay Fuzz Tone was used also in the U2 song "Elevation" and the song "Orange Kay" for the soundtrack from Sling Blade.

Requires (1) 9V battery (included)

Nice pedals. Makes me want to dig out my old boxful and see what treasures might lie inside.

Good luck!

The Mistress, ESR Fuzz, and Jax all sold. Sorry Al. It would have been easier to sell them to you. They were shipped to Hawaii.

The Bad Stone is yours if you want still want it.

Also, which Fuzz were you looking at? ESR or Kay?

FYI: Your PM box is Full. :)
