Here's a start. This was a rescue pedal - see: http://www.bossarea.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7039

Hi Laurie & Guys

My small contribution.
Including my lovely long-dash-SS CE-2.
Real rash from real gigs, & no mods.

I also have an analog CH-1, & a long-dash DS-1, that have some gig-rash as well, but no pics.

Regards Dr. Bob

And of course some people pay extra for guitars that have been suitably pre-knackered, weird.

Unfortunately, most pedals don't gain mojo or vintage authenticity with damage the same way a guitar does..

I love seeing how the wear patterns on most BOSS pedals are pretty consistent.


Less gig-rash than gig-burst-appendix.

And again, not so bad, but a large area of paint-loss:


My other bad ones..

My beloved old CS-3, not really that battle scarred since I mostly put it on top of my amp and leave it on the entire time.

This was the condition this pedal was in when I got it. I definitely think Gig Rash adds character...

That sure is one well used pedal. Being a Boss though, I'd assume that it still functions perfectly.

Hi HohnerFan

I see you set your GE-7 as a mid boost (sad face) as well.

BTW, I have tried to check the first pic you uploaded,
& it seems to be corrupted, the server probably timed-out.

If you want to re-upload a smaller re-sized version, I can delete the other one for you.

Not really, I`ve been trying some settings to find my setting.
I have only a Harley Benton GA5 Head (Epiphone Valve Junior Clone) and a 1x12" Celestion box and wanna have a little crunch sound with the GE-7.
But most time I use the GE-7 to power up my SD-1.
