BOSS SLOW GEAR SG-1 RARE ORIGINAL VINTAGE PEDAL Picture(s) and Description:

Hi Everyone. Up for sale is a very rare Boss Slow Gear SG-1 Silver-screw pedal from the heyday of Boss Japan. It is in A+++ condition, with no issues whatsoever. All-Original. Ink Serial is what looks to be 9800. The only other one I can find is listed on ebay at a 'buy it now' of US $500 However, bidding here starts at 99c! Google away & see what a rarity this is. Please send me a message if you have any questions. Cheers! SG-1 Slow Gear The SG-1 filters out the attack of your note, and swells the volume automatically. There are only 2 controls, one for the attack speed, and the other for sensitivity. The attack knob controls the speed of the volume swells. A compressor or overdrive in front of it may be helpful to minimize the variations in your signal level for the SG-1's response. Used with a delay it sounds sort of like a more articulated E-bow or a passage played backwards. The SG-1 circuit is very similar to the NF-1. The pedal was in fact made using the exact same circuit as the NF-1 but the way it works is completely opposite. With the NF-1, the sound decays away but is cut when it falls below a threshold. With the SG-1, the attack is filtered out and then the sound increases gradually. The Slow Gear is a rather unique effect and the SG-1 has become one of the hardest Boss pedals to get hold of. Expect to pay top money if you find one. Specifications Controls: Sens, Attack Connectors: Input, Output, AC Adaptor Current Draw: 4 mA (DC 9V) Labels Black - Made In Japan The SG-1 was sold from May 1979 to February 1982.
