I have found that some of my Waza pedals are coming up with 2024 decoder dates. The B50 SD1, too.

Did BOSS revise their serials?

Thanks again for saving another mistreated piece of gear. I have never heard a Hot Rod Deluxe in person and I didn't know that the dirt channel isn't useful. Horrible, that a merely 30-year-old amp can be so bashed-up. :| The Blues Deluxe/Hot Rod Deluxe have a clean channel that is great for about ...

Ok, I finally caved and got a TU3Wb. ABSOLUTELY unnecessary purchase, but the price was right. ;) I know I mentioned elsewhere here that I'd do this if one popped up for a good deal. Well, it's black, so it will look really good replacing a white TU3 on one of my boards. ... and that TU3 will replac...

Yep! I get a lot of mileage out of the ACS1 as a late night headphone amp. It’s 90% of how I use it and really love this application. It's also great for doing quick n dirty testing of dirt pedals with the 'big 3' amp platforms, too. This is especially cool since I don’t have an actual Vox (or remot...

I'm going to get an IR2. It's exactly what i need. I really like how many amp platforms it has, a couple each of cleans, crunches, hi gain, etc... Plus the effects loop and headphone jack, all in a compact Boss enclosure that could live in a BCB6. I recently picked up a Walrus ACS1 that does a very ...

Saw the release announcement for the JHS Notaklon the other week. Looked like a fun way to get another Klone for about $100. Well, I was a couple hours late to get on the 1st wave of shipments, so mine will show up in a little over a month or so. No biggie. My thoughts and impetus to order were: it'...

I checked mine. All have large PCBs. FZ1W: has a double board with mostly SMD. HM2W : single board, almost all SMD. https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-0bRNyLnJL0pZOju37gIGvAJPjGm5zan3rARPapS3bn0dcI3CQLO-hCo-UV8agsd7V7ntXQOewWgszVPDOQPWWw?cn=THISLIFE&res=medium&ts=1701065896 https://uniim1.shutt...

I have no idea why but the DS-1 50th Anniversary model sounds really really good ! It’s the same circuit as any other new DS-1. I must be listening to it through rose tinted ears The other two in the series sound pretty good too.

Haha! Through metallic paint ears!

Nice fix, good for another 40 years!

Cool finish, but that's not enough for creating redundancy in my stash.
