Yup, that's the one. Use the serial number decoder to find the production month. |

what do you think about this one; it's a 81 one the d1 component that should be where the H is printed is not here but seems to be near the green component above the H and the opamp is named on the circuitboard and has 2 golden marks! first time i see that! |

| That's the ET-28E board. This PCB will match the schematic that you can find on several internet sites. The other pictures are of the later ET-28F board which was introduced within a couple of years after the E board. I'm not sure what the schematic differences are. |

I got my Boss SD-1 today, and i noticed that it was made in Japan. 
I didn't know that when i bought it. So i checked the serialnumber and it shows that it was made December 1981.
I payed 30$ for this pedal. Was this a good deal for me? I mean a REALLY good deal? |

Does anyone know how much it's worth?
I mean, i don't expect 10000$, but it must cost more than 30$?
And the biggest question. WHY are Japanesee Boss pedals more attractive and more expensive than Taiwan made? Is it because they don't manifactures anymore, and that they are very old. |

It is mainly that they sound better than the new, Taiwan made and that they grow in collector's value. Have no idea what the price is in Sweden. Check evilbay to get a rough idea. |

I see...Thanks.
Looked at Ebay, and i didn't found any Japan SD-1. But the taiwan made was about 40-50$ mostley.
Do you think mine is worth more or less?  |

Yup, MIJ is worth more. Although I don't see why, I don't think they ever changed the circuit. But hey I'm old enough to remember when it said MIJ it was the crappy one! |
