Hi Guys

New catalog (Catalogue) Section on Bossarea.
http://www.bossarea.com/cat.asp

Bosssarea & I, have been doing a little talking behind the scenes, in a few PM's, over the past week or so.

I asked him if it would be ok, to Upload or PM him the Boss catalog scans, that my son James & I, have been busily scanning & editing.

James & I thought it would make a nice little present, to give back to all the really great people, that live here in our community on the forum.

Bossarea mentioned that he had a similar Idea.
So with a lot of behind the scenes effort & elbow grease.
he created a a new Catalog section, here on Bossarea.

The files are viewable in 72DPI screen resolution,
& are also available for download as full 300+DPI HiRes files.

We have also uploaded the Cartoon style Boss DSD-2 magazine advert,
I know many people have been asking for that one as well.
Now you won't have to bid or BIN for it on evilBay.
I've seen these, sell for around $8us or more.

The catalogs pages contain a wealth of information.
Even some Technical drawings & various tables.

I know Bossarea has had many requests for a such a catalog section.
So I hope you all enjoy the effort that he has gone to.

Please upload any scans of catalogs that you may have, as it takes a lot of time, to scan all of these pieces of Pedal & gear history.

Please remember that while these catalogs & adverts are many years out of date, they still remain, copyright to Roland-Boss.

I-We, hope you all have a wonderful & safe festive holiday season.

Regards Dr. Bob for Bossarea...

I've got one of the really early pocket dictionaries, volume 4, worth scanning? I've no idea if its particularly rare, but a previous owner did use the back page for roaches I believe

No Christo, for joints. Some people just don't have the decency to use something I don't want to read

Hi kulten
I have one of those (DR-110) as well, & in it's original silver Vinyl case, and unmodified, I'm proud to say.
I think I wrote to once before about it.
My son James, scanned all of that catalog for us.

Regards Dr. Bob
