Boss pedal photo thread

Oh My God this is insane Old Iron!

You tell me...

Thank you guys.

Yeah, it's kind of a crazy behavior you don't wanna even talk about...

The "racks" are shoe racks.

If you know a good carpenter. And no... Jesus doesn't count.

The measurements are in milimeters.

I was thinking yesterday that I do miss these old coloured Boss boxes

I think the same. It's a real shame that only the lettering is coloured nowadays - if at all.

Great, now I want a box that I'm missing.
See my wanted thread in the classifieds...

Here's my collection so far. Not as impressive as some of yours but it's a beginning... I'm trying to get all the made in japan one first. It's tough because some of them are really expensive and my mindset is "get them all or none!". There is not a single day that I don't tell myself to stop this and sell them all... And then a new interesting one pops on Reverb or Marketplace and then I NEED to get it.

The 2 bottom rows are all MIJ

Some facts:
- There's a DD-6 box but not DD-6 pedals!
- The CE-2 was my most expensive one
- The OD-1b was an exchange one for one with a Maxon OD-9
- My OCD tells me that the PH-1 needs to be upgraded to the silver screw version (but at least I have the correct box)
- Yes I'm missing one from the Fender serie trio... and it will need to have a box to match the 2 others
- I have a DN-2 and EH-2 in the mail
- I don't use any of them. I'm all digital with a Line6 HX Effects

That's already a fantastic collection!

Congratulations, it's a very nice beginning.

I'm trying to get all the made in japan one first. It's tough because some of them are really expensive and my mindset is "get them all or none!"

Oh boy, I'm seeing myself in your words, that's how I began to collect seriously, by the Japanese ones, I call them "The 43 Ronins", as the samurais that losing their original master goes to serve another one.

There is not a single day that I don't tell myself to stop this and sell them all...

Get used to it, that's a feeling that will be with you forever.
What helps is the thought that it will hold its value and therefore you can sell them anytime in the far, far, very far future.

And then a new interesting one pops on Reverb or Marketplace and then I NEED to get it.

Ahhh, the next one is always the most important one!

- My OCD tells me that the PH-1 needs to be upgraded to the silver screw version

I am right now turning my attention to those early models with the black screws, like SP-1, PH-1, GE-6, CS-1, SG-1, CE-2 and PH-1r.
So save your PH-1 black screw cause it is a bit difficult to find one.

Whaaaat !?!?!

I hereby excommunicate you !

[The_Doc]

Great collection and I know exactly how you feel !

It's only complete with a "Touch Wah" pedal and box. And you still miss a long dsh DS-1 with cut-out box. Not finished yet, Mr. Collector.

Speaking of long dash DS-1s with a cutout box. My DS-1 cut out is yellow, like an OD-1. Has anyone seen this before?
I haven't taken a photo of it yet. unfortunately.
