Vintage 1980s analogue Pearl DS-06 distortion pedal, competitor to the Boss & Ibanez ranges and is in my opinion better than both, which is why I bought this new in the early 80's (before the internet etc, so the only way was to go to a shop and try a few different ones out). Hasn't been used much in the last few years as I am doing more acoustic stuff now, but it is fully working off both the external power supply or 9v battery. 4 controls look after distortion level, output level, a rotary selector for the 6 different distortion "spectrum" modes and a spectrum level control. These can modify the tone colour, something like a notch filter overdrive. Was using this with a Tele with Hot Rails and a Strat with Lindy Fralins into Fender amps, incredible sounds available. Please note that I lost the original battery cover years ago, but it comes with a replacement cover. Postage only to UK only, you can collect if you wish. This is a very solid and rather heavy metal item, hence the postage charge which does reflect the actual cost of postage.
