Found an old friend. (Guitar pedal)

I had to stop playing a couple of years ago due to a bad hand, and had packed away all of the items I was going to keep, mostly vintage guitars and a couple of 1960s Fender amps.

I was going through a couple of boxes the other day and found one of my pedals.

If I remember right I purchased this pedal in the 1980s, but don't remember the year.

It is the A.R.T Xtreme guitar processor pedal.

It was carefully packed away with power cord.and still looks like new.

Even though I can't play any more, I turned on one of my smaller amps, and plugged in a Stratocasters just to see if it still worked.

Processor sounded great and all the switches and effects sounded good.

Any one else have one of these or maybe had one at one time.

I saw one for sale on E-Bay for not much money, but when they first came out, they sold for so much more.

It's cool to find a piece of gear you didn't rememeber you had.

 

I have an ART preamp, not sure if it is the same brand.

 

P.S. Bill, I am refinishing a Flying V in metallic copper using Reranch spray cans. I have it stripped and I have applied the grain filler, next I am spraying a sandable sealer and will need some tips from you as to what technique to use on spraying corners and well, the entire edge of the guitar.

Hi stranger. How ya been?

You still have my email address?

If not , I will send it to you through a P M

Probably be easier to explain through email rather than the forum.

Let me know if you need my email address.

I have a crazy ART bass coltrole center board. Sounds amazing.

 

I did find a couple on E-bay and was really surprised that they were going so cheap( dollar wise)

Mine still has the price sticker on it, and it was $279.00 when I bought it.

The ones on E - bay were less than $50.00

Searcy, do you still use yours?
