Im currently looking at a couple of old used Boss pedals for theese prices are they reasnobable???
CS-1 - �34.99 from one place �79 from another PH-1 - �79 from the same place as the �79 CS-1
I tried the PH-1 liked it, but wasnt convinced that it was worth �79 used, is that a good ball park figure??? Also the place selling it is selling it for someone, so this may make the price seem higher.
I also want to know if the CS-1 is a good deal, i supose if i got it from the �34.99 place i may get my money back for it as its an old discontinued pedal.
Are those figures good ball park figures???
The PH-1 im looking at has a box i think but its not mint, and the LED still works, as i know thats a problem with the PH-1 of a certain vintage/usage.
Reason im asking is i wanting a Boss Phaser to complete my Boss only pedal board and my mini rig of doom.
Thanks again.

CS-1 is definitely a good price. Based on Ebay UK prices, the PH-1 isn't too bad either. They're cheaper from US sellers though. |

Thanks for the help, i know the CS-1s are in good condition, and the PH-1 is in good condition. I am gonna be trading in gear for both pedals, probably a MXR Zakk OD and a EHX LPB1 RI for the PH-1 and a ART Tube MP Mic Preamp for the CS-1 from the �35 source.
All arnt much special since they are black screw ones. The only thing is i dont have a ASA/12V adapter as they both run on ASA power, but for that pedalboard id be getting a better PSU for it anyways. |

Hi ESPImperium
To covert the ASA pedals to PSA 9V pedals is a simple fix.
There is just one resistor that you have to jumper with a wire link.
Or use them on a daisy chain power lead, but as the second pedal. Read here. http://www.bossarea.com/other/aca.asp Powering ACA pedals with a PSA power supply
If you go the other way, mail us here & we'll help you out, if have, & can use a soldering Iron.
