While this is technically not a pedal.
I found one of these at the local recovery centre (classy name for big shed at the local tip)
I managed to buy it for about $2 Aust. seems noone there knew what it was.
It's a black metal box with teak wood grain sides, about half the width of an old video recorder, & it's in very good condition.
I have not tested it yet, but I opened it up & it looks in remarkable condition for its age, I seem to remember seeing them advertised in the mid to late 70's or early 80's & very expensive for the time, real HiFi buff & studio quality.
Looks very much like this DBX 118 on ebay

I have heard of a few bass players that use these in their rigs & rave about them.
I was wondering if anyone else remembers, or knows any thing about these units?
Maybe someone knows where I could download a user manual? |
