Hello Analog Sound Channel, welcome. (Bemvindo)Analog Sound Channel wrote: ↑Tue Mar 15, 2022 4:20 ami have seen some of these anomalies among my files, i never thought about the possibility that they are remanufactured pedals, this seems like a good explanation but what explains the 6 digit stamp?
The stamped six digits, I think it was a method Boss used to differentiate that "parallel" production line from the main production line, which at that time was already using paper sticker batch numbers.
I think that Boss only marketed those "recycled" pedals inside Japan, that's why they don't have "Made in Japan" sticker covering the "Roland Japan" text on the back label.
