I have an Electro Harmonix Golden Throat talk box in great condition! I am the original owner. I bought this pedal in the early eighties because I wanted to make my guitar talk like Peter Frampton. This is the original Red version and not the second golden Throat II version. This is the one you want! You've heard this version on many records! Roger Troutman, the talk box king used this version to make his hit records! It is in super clean condition. I probably used this talk-box twenty times if that much. It was really shiny until I stored it in an Anvil road case who's foam was deteriorating and became stuck to the pedal which dulled the graphics a little bit. Other than that the pedal is virtually unused. I never gigged with this pedal, I mainly only pulled it out when company came over just to show off a little bit. If you want to make some cool sounds with your guitar or synthesizers then you should get this pedal.
