Sorry, this was originally listed with the wrong price! This is my Brown Source by Lovetone. this is a really wonderful and unique pedal, and if you're not familiar with lovetone give them a read on the interweb. The pedal is in near mint conditon with a small scratch across the word Volume. Other than that, the pedal is in amazing condition for its age and use. There are no papers or box. To open the pedal, just pop up the front top panel- no screws to access the battery! I don't have the paper work or box, just the overdrive. And notice that it uses a 9v +tip.   Here's their description off of their website: The BROWN SOURCE™ is an instant flash-back to that dynamic, singing, BIG late 60's / early 70's brown sound that is associated with countless classic records spanning the whole musical spectrum. It offers unparalleled purity and touch sensitivity and an uncannily warm "valvey" grunt with the absence of the unnatural fizz associated with most overdrive pedals. There is also a very tangible sense of electricity (remember that!?) as it piles on the pylon factor. It responds extremely well to filter changes (producing a throaty "voice box" type distortion) and consequently works an absolute treat with a wah in front - and will make any new guitar sound 30 years older! Because of its large image size irrespective of volume, and natural communicative response it makes an ideal recording tool or "desert island" companion. Three classic ways to use the Brown Source with a guitar are for snap crackle and "pop" into a clean amp, dripping fat into a cooking amp and controlled feedback with singing harmonics into a driven amp. In the studio it can perform amazing transformations on the most unlikely time travellers, or blended in with the straight signal it can be used to add a touch of dirt to those unfashionable clean cut sounds!
