PETE CORNISH DB-1 BASS DRIVE PEDAL WITH BOX AND MANUAL – AS NEW
Rare and barely used BD-1 Bass Drive Battery Free Pedal made by Pete Cornish , with Original Box and manual. The BD-1™ is not a variant of any existing product but a completely new and original design. Initially designed for Bass Guitar, the BD-1™ has also proved very popular with Baritone Guitars and dropped tuned Guitars when heavy overdrive is required at the lower frequencies of these instruments. With Germanium components for added musicality this new design features full Bottom-End retention and is flat down to below the bottom B on five string basses. The tone controls are very powerful and feature an active boost and cut with a combined range of 34dB at maximum settings. Being active, the two tone bands can be both cut and boosted as desired with the zero or neutral point being 12 o’clock on each control knob. I have included a second linear boost stage after the tone circuit to compensate for any reduction in overall volume when the tones are in “cut” mode. The benefits of this active tone circuit, compared to the usual passive (Cut only) tone circuit is that the two bands are completely independent and there is no interaction between the Bass and Treble tone controls. An output Master Volume is included to allow for perfect matching between bypassed and overdriven and EQ’d signal level and there is plenty of signal headroom available to overdrive amp inputs if required. My well established Class A input buffer and radio frequency suppressor is, of course, included and the output buffer impedance is low to easily drive long cables or other loads without loss of signal or tone. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: Overall boost with Gain = 100% and Volume = 100% is +55 dB {Reference: input = -52dBm(V) and output = +3dBm(V)} Overall boost with Gain = 0% and Volume = 100% is +19 dB {Reference: input = -16dBm(V) and output = +3dBm(V)} The above with Bass and Treble set to 50% (Neutral point). Bass Control range +16/-13dB @ 30Hz Treble Control range +12/-18dB @ 3KHz Maximum signal output with Volume 100% is +10dBm(V)/ 2.5vrms/6v Peak to Peak (at clip point) FEATURES: High Impedance RFI rejecting input and bypass buffer. Each unit is hand built, wired and tested by Pete, Lynda and Mingus Cornish. Housed in a Rugged Die-cast box with easy to set Number Knobs. Heavy Duty all-metal footswitch with Hi-Brite LED. Dimensions: 145 X 95 X 49 mm

Electro Harmonix Holy Grail Reverb with Wooden Box
Rare Mu-tron Green Octavider Pedal with original box
Very rare and sought after green (version 3) mu-tron octavider pedal with the original box in perfect condition. The OCTAVIDER creates a thick analog octave-down and a fuzzy ring modulated octave-up tone , in a pedalboard-friendly size and powered by industry-standard 9V DC. The OCTAVIDER pairs amazingly well with the Micro-Tron III and tracks steady on guitar, bass, keyboards and horns. Turn your instrument into a fat monophonic synthesizer. The Mu-Tron OCTAVIDER makes the full, harmonically rich option of “playing in octaves” available to all horn and stringed instrument players. This live effect is created by newly developed circuitry that analyzes the original signal and “pairs” it with the note one octave below, matching tone color and dynamics over an exceptionally wide range. The unique “stabilization” circuit (patent pending) enables the Mu-Tron OCTAVIDER to “lock into” the musical tone and sound a simultaneous sub-octave with accuracy that is not found in any other device. An important advance in electronic music technology, the OCTAVIDER has the same quality, ruggedness, and reliability that makes Mu-Tron the first choice of professional musicians. The RINGER Provides multiple effects of distortion, extra note generation, and a kind of “octave up” effect. RINGER effect is added to output, regardless of MIX. The more “pure” the instrument tone, the stronger the “octave up” effect. For the strongest “octave up”, turn MIX full down to eliminate the originally played register.STRINGED INSTRUMENTS: neck pick-up tone down, volume up full. (GUITAR, play from tenth fret up on all strings.) Two notes played simultaneously will beat with each other, producing “extra” notes. Try parallel fourths, fifths, or other simple chords. MIX full up.WIND INSTRUMENTS: play with clear “round” tone. The OCTAVIDER can be used successfully with many other devices, but the OCTAVIDER must be the first to receive the signal from the instrument. The OCTAVIDER followed by a Micro-Tron III or a Mu-Tron BI-PHASE are especially effective. Features: The ability to preserve dynamics and harmonic content of the original signal in the sub-octave. A stabilization circuit that “locks into” all single-voiced signals. A tone color control for sub-octave. A ringer circuit for harmonic emphasis of upper tones, and special multi-note effects. A novel mixing circuit with BASS ONLY switch for extended range and dramatic effects. Auxiliary impedance-compensated output. LED (light emitting diode) indicators to show operating status of effects. 89V DC powered in rugged Mu-Tron enclosure. Controls: Mix controls the mix between the direct signal and the effect signal Tone (Lo-Hi) controls the tone Ringer (On/Off) adds slight octave up and fuzz tone Stabilize (On/Off) provides note tracking stability Bass Only (On/Off) takes out the input signal Specifications: 1/4″ Input Jack 1/4″ Output Jack 9V DC Weight: 1 lbs Dimensions: 4.75″ x 2.5″ x 2.25″
Electro Harmonix Big Muff “Frontone Era” with Wooden Box
Electro Harmonix Memory Man Deluxe Delay
-
An all time classic analog delay from EHX, the Deluxe Memory Man is certainly one of the greatest delay pedals ever. Beautiful ambient warm yet clear analog delays with modulation for wonderful musical sound. This is the version with 4 MN3008, which in my experience is the best of the lot, compared to the vintage ones (and even the 90s ones) these are the most quiet and well behaved. This one is in good condition with the usual EHX enclosure wear and tear, so much as breath on their pedals and they scratch. It’s fully functional, sounds amazing and includes the original power supply.
PRICE LOWERED – 1969 AMPEG SCRAMBLER FUZZ PEDAL
A Blast from the past, the original Ampeg Scrambler Fuzz from 1969 in amazing condition and with an unreal sound. This is one of those 2000 units from the original run from 1969 . This one is all original beside a new foot switch and an added 9v barrel to easily connect it to your pedalboard power supply without having to munch through too many batteries. 1969 saw two, now classic fuzz pedals make their way onto the scene; The Electro Harmonix Big Muff and the Ampeg Scrambler. Both had a loud and aggressive sound which was perfect for filling up any jumbo-sized arenas, and standing out among all the thin and raspy first-wave-fuzz’s from a few years earlier. Although the Big Muff is probably the single most popular distortion effect of all time, the Scrambler was so unique and forward thinking that it deserves its own spotlight… A little history about these rare and iconic pedals: Already adept at making amplifiers, Ampeg was going for big changes in late 1968 when they set out to build “the most powerful amp ever made!”. Jumping from their usual 50-watt setup to the titanic 300-watt, tube filled machine called the SVT, they were now ready for the Summer of Love. In addition to this monster, they decided to jump on the fuzz bandwagon and release the Ampeg Scrambler in early-1969. It is rumored that only around 2,000 units were produced. Where the Big Muff went for a fatter, thicker amp-like tone, the Ampeg Scrambler boasted a huge upper-octave fuzz circuit. And although similar fuzzes were available by 1969, including the Univox Super Fuzz, the Octavia by Roger Mayer, and the Fender Blender, none had the overall raw character or versatility of the Ampeg Scrambler. With the ability to go from a burly Muff-style overdrive to an all out octave splatter fest, there really was nothing like it.

The White Finger features multiple FETs instead of vacuum tubes, making it the affordable alternative. Main Features: LED optocoupler for a faster attack compression Lamp optocoupler for softer blooming compressor Quiet long sustains with transparent tones Pre-gain control lets you control how hard your instrument hits the compressor Sensitivity knob for control of how the compression will be hit Compression amount allows you to dial in the perfect ratio for your music Same compression theory as our professional NY-2A but uses FETs instead of tubes 40DC-100 power supply included
MUSITRONICS MUTRON BI-PHASE PHASER WITH RARE TEMPLATES AND ORIGINAL FOOTSWITCH
A really amazing and rare piece of gear, made in the 70s by Musitronics in the 70s and in great condition. Comes with the original and extremely hard to find templates and the tap switch. All original beside a replaced knob (the sweep one). The Bi-Phase has plenty of control features, both internal and external, including the ability to control the sweep using the optional Opti-Pot optical foot pedal for wah-style monster phasing. The two independent sweep generators can be used singly or coupled with a choice of sine or square waves. Compared to other phaser pedals of the era such as the MXR Phase 90 and the Electro Harmonix Small Stone – both compact one pot compact units – the Bi-Phase is a complex behemoth. Like its legendary contemporaries, it sounded fabulous and distinctive, and its place in the pantheon of great guitar pedals was assured. However, its flexibility and myriad features, combined with exceptional sonic performance, meant it was destined to be far more than just a guitar pedal, earning the Bi-Phase a place in the rarefied realm of studio classics.
