It's pretty scratched up, but i was able to pick it up for a great price because of that. Sorry I couldn't get a more clear gut shot, but my camera only takes good pictures in natural light, and even with that I couldn't manage to get one. Cheers.

Nice pics
That's how a pedal should look: mint or the way yours look, like it had a life.

The chip holder doesn't look original. Has it been modified apart from the IC socket?

no idea at all. Just picked it up used a couple days ago. To be honest, I don't even know what that means.

If you look at the picture, the 2 chips (or also known as ICs-Integrated Circuits) on the left are soldered directly to the board. However, the IC on the right has that white thing underneath it which is an IC socket, meaning you can change out the IC without having to solder and desolder the IC and board like you would if you were to try and change the ICs on the left. So Bossarea is just mentioning that it does not look like the stock IC socket (or maybe that they didn't come stock with IC sockets?)...

Nice....
Bet is sounds good as well.

Pity your camera doesn't have a macro closeup mode.
