1981 Boss DM-2 Analog Delay, Early Version w/MN3005 Chip, 9v Mod

Sounds stunning. These early versions have a warmer, more natural feel to the repeats. The reason Boss changed to the MN3205 chip is they were 1) cheaper and 2) used less power. This is one of the early versions and will not disappoint. I did the 9v mod on this so that it gets the correct voltage using modern, regulated power adapters. I replaced the rotted out rubber grommet and since the input jack was failing on this causing the effect to cut out completely I put in a new jack as well. Otherwise this is all original. Well used, as these were often well-loved. For the controls, the names of which are not terribly reflective of what they do, they are as follows: Repeat Rate = delay length (longer is counter-clockwise), Echo = dry/wet mix (more effect in the mix is clockwise), and Intensity = # of repeats.
