Hi Guys
Sorry to rain on your camp fire but, this is a fair-dinkum pedal,
that some seller in Asia-Japan sells on evilbay.
We had a thread running on this pedal, about a year ago, or so.
Sadly, the seller makes decent money on this pedal.
It even comes with an instruction sheet,
& even more sadly, is the fact that there are people buying & endorsing this pedal.
We all joking speculated that the wire was actually UNOBTAINIUM.
Regards Dr. Bob |

I remember that, how sick it may be, in this guy's point of view he's just nothing short of genius 
On a similar account, one dude once advertised with THE solution to reducing the amount of gas used by your car.
You had to send money first, something like 10 bucks and then he would send you the product.
Which consisted of a piece of wood and 2 tyraps and an instruction to mount the piece of wood under your accelerator pedal thus reducing the gas consumption, hahaha.
I love that stuff, that people actually fall for something so cleverly invented yet so stupid  |

And the classic from Australia (which suffers greatly from bugs in the northern regions)
"guaranteed cockroach killer send $10"... and you receive two blocks of wood ... "place cockroach between blocks, strike firmly"

What does the instruction sheet state that it does? What is being endorsed? Just curious...
If I was making it, I'd fill the box with epoxy to hide the fact it's just two wires - and to make it feel solid... <breathless review> "You can FEEL the quality in the weight of this thing! This is an AWESOME pedal!"

| Yeah, I remember that thread about this mysterious box. I think I am going to start selling foam ear plugs as "personal frequency enhancers". |

Hi BossFan & guys
The seller told me it was a proprietary circuit design...
But undaunted, I downloaded all the pictures & information that I could find.
I then went into hiding in my lab, & after weeks of circuit tracing,
I finally have what I believe to be the schematic.
Send a $10 note, in Australian currency, & I'll mail you the schematic.
I have a few meters of Unobtainium wire left as well, if you need some to build one.
Specify if you need bi-filer windings.
Regards Dr. Richer Bob |

| Wasn't there a guy who would sell you the "secret to making your multi-effects unit sound better?" Anyone else remember that? I think he basically sent you something saying to run it through your amp's effects loop after you paid up. |
