i found this in my parents basement when i was at home over easter. I smuggled this shit back to buffalo with me.

pretty simple box, 2 female jacks, one LoZ and one HiZ

anyone got any idea how old it is?

im guessing pretty fucking old. i googled it and got nothing

The logo looks way old, might even be 70s.

Yeah, DOD use the same logo on their 70's reissue OD pedal so 70s would be my guess aswell.

Yeah 70s pedal all the way. Which would also make me think it is an high to low impedance converter.

i don't know about scotland but in america Z stands for impedence

so me saying LoZ and HiZ jacks up over the photo is what you just repeated.

I was drunk last night. I thought you were asking what it does.

I thought you were doing that internetz zpeaking thing, that I really don't get. But then I know shit all about electronics, so it makes sense that I'd misunderstand.

Impedance convertors are wickedawesome.

WTF do they do? Looks BOOORRRING. That's like getting a compressor for your birthday.

I would fucking love to get a compressor for my birthday. It would have to at least be an SC2.2 or something though, I'd probably be a bit pissed off if I was given a behringer.

A nice Joe Meek Valve compressor would make my knickers wet.

Do they make valve ones? I've never seen one, but then I've only seen a very small selection. I've seen and used a couple of valve compressors and they were lovely. The Joe Meek stuff I've used was optical or something.

I thought they used to?

If they didn't then a Joe Meek and a Valve compressor would be great kthx.

I've never heard of one. I know they made a lot of optical stuff, and a lot of the new tfpro stuff is optical. There probably are some old ones though.

Pic Link. I used one of those a bit at uni. It was shit for most things, but sometimes it would be awesome. I like to keep that sort of thing simple, but nothing but a volume knob isnt always ideal.
