The rubber pedal pad bit (do these have an official name?) on my FZ-2 looks a bit tired next to the others. Does anyone have any tips on restoring these?
Recently I have used dirt erasers with very good results.

Yep, those sponges with melamine. They can work wonders, just keep sure that you don't rub off the paint of the chassis.

First post in years and my lasted purchase was a really cool underrated pedal, the Power Wah PW-1.
It has a boosted volume and a Width control that's similar to the Morley Bad Horsie that came out later.
The switch has 3 setting, L,M, and H. The Low one is good for bass, Middle is the stock Wah and High is bright, one review mentioned they could get Cantrall tone from it
Runs on two C batteries for a whopping 3v consumption
Couldn't find the date with serial number, came up as being made between 74 and 82, s/n is 186700
Can't figure out how to add pics

To add pictures on this board, the file size has to be rather small. I attach my pics that I host on my webspace.

400kb or less. I use a graphics program to reduce the pixel count and resolution before uploading.

I found your rank through the Wayback Machine:

It was a silver rank in the StompBoxZone on the 13th July 2021 when the forum wasn't accessible for login anymore.
