Hi guys.
There seems to have been a bit of controversy & doubt, as to any PSM-5's having Silver Screws,
after I posted, that I had won a similar SS on evilbay, over the weekend.

Here is another what appears to be a SS PSM-5, perhaps they are more common to Australia & the S.E. Asian region.

I doubt that there are any original SS PSM'5s. Maybe the PSM-5 is more susceptible to screw replacement than the others? If someone has a SS pedal and trouble changing battery, they could resonate that the PSM-5 don't take a battery so they won't ever need to open that up and then switch the screws. Of course if they were using a PSM-5 for powering their pedals they wouldn't need to change the battery in the SS pedal anyway...

Have you received your PSM-5 yet? What's the serial?

If this is genuine then it�s very possible that there exists SS DM-2�s.
If I�m right on it, PSM-5 started manufacturing in 1983.
I don�t hope that Dr Bob is right, I have been trying to build a complete SS collection over the last years�

Hi Bossarea & guys

Please see the picture of the PSM-5 that I won the other evening, it's in the new pedals thread.

The seller did not mention rare or SS - in fact he gained nothing from the sale if he did change the screw to a SS.
It was a BIN, & well under the current evilbay market price.

I am still waiting on it's delivery, I will keep you all informed.
It was a 4 day weekend here, & I'm guessing it will be a bit later in the week, before it arrives.

Regards Dr. Bob

The earliest PSM-5 I've seen so far is willemdaguide's october 82 with serial 237600.
Be interesting to see if it's earlier than that.

Hi bossarea & guys

It's Wednesday here in OZ.
I was hoping that it would arrive by Friday.
As I said, I'll post up the serial when it arrives.

Regards Dr. Bob
