    Wow!!! i thought it got chucked out years because it didn’t work. I can’t tell you how happy i am to have found it again. It really brings back memories of playing in a band over 30 years ago…..
    We were all very young and no money. Then we all grew up, girlfriends became wives, mortgages, jobs, people move away and then the childrens lives become more important…..life goes by very quick.
    I gave up playing music when i left the band, i got involved in Hotrods and cars. I still love music though, just to listen to and enjoy.

    Back to the EHX Electric Mistress Flanger. From what i can remember, it used to eat batteries , so i disconnected some wires and ran it from a separate power supply.
    When i left the band the flanger and the PSU got separated so i tried to return the wires how they were originally, thats when i think i blew something!!!
    My job these days involves electronics and i am quite handy at fault finding.Looking at it once more after all these years i am hopeful i can get it working.

    First things first. I need to know what i did to it in the first place. Is there anyone here who could post a picture of the internals of a similar Flanger so i can compare the wiring?
    Anyone have a circuit diagram?
    I’ll post some pictures soon.

    BTW hi everyone my name is Mel and i’m in the UK.

    Here it is (in bits). I bought it in 1978.
