Estimated Value?
Latest ebay sales seem to go from $200 to $500
That’s a big range! Another question I had is about the knobs, I have never seen one with knobs like this. They are also set and can only be put on the pots one way but they point all different directions…any insight?
They don’t look original, but EHX used more than a few different knob-types back in the Seventies, so it isn’t impossible that they’re original, but not likely. Those look like stereo knobs.
My old 18v Electric Mistress also has the pots set in 3 different directions, so 50% ends being 9:00, 12:00, and 3:00 respectively. Pretty hilarious design. I think that’s normal for some of those older units.
The knobs are original. I’ve seen them more often on Frequency Analyzers.
The knobs point in different directions because of the way the pots are mounted to the board. The Volume and Sustain are soldered to the sides of the board rather than the top edge like the Tone control.
Thanks for that info!
I knew that because I was going to try to correct it only to realize it’s impossible. This is my cousin’s and he told me he bought it in the early 70s. He wants me to sell it for him on eBay but it’s hard for me to do that!
