tomteriffic Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 In the process of digging through Buzzard Gulch, I came across my old pawnshop-prize Mutron III. It's beat-up, has one replaced goofball knob, but has the original power supply and, last I checked, it worked.I've heard that these things are pretty desirable, but I've no clue on these, and especially considering that this is pretty dang far from pristine, I REALLY have no clue.I'm not really considerig selling it just yet, but just had a case of idle curiosity.Anybody have an idea?Hmmm, I wonder if any of this old sheet-metal E-H crap works? Or this Univox Superfuzz, or this goofy-ass Octavia thing?? :angry:
kurtsstuff Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 hehe...I gotta box full of crap just like yours!!!! :angry:
straightblues Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Hey Tom I had one in good condition that I sold a while back for $350. I didn't have the power supply. Mr. Garcia from the Greatful Dead use to use one. The Deadheads love them. I never used mine much. I traided for a Phase 90 back in the late 70's and had it sitting in the closet for many years like you.
mutronboy Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Hi Tom,I sold my spare Mutron III for AU$550 a while back....I'd been offered AU$1000 for it (Chaka Khan's bassist) previous to them being re-issued, which I stupidly declined.They were sought after by funk bassists, but Zappa used them a lot on guitar.Most people turn the Peak control up too high and go quacky duck...but with subtle settings it's a good effectThe reissues supposedly don't sound quite as good, but they've brought the price down..along with the EH 'Q-tron' etc.Mutron Bi-Phase's bring pretty good money..I sold a minty with the pedal for AU$1000...and I've seen them go higher on eBayBTW If you come across an old Oberheim VCF-200 pedal (white) let me know
