WTF? National Volume Pedal – very very vintage!
Never seen one of these before? I haven’t either…
I know National put out a fuzz wah a long time ago but this is the first time I have seen a volume pedal from National. This one looks like it has been kicking around for about 30 years. Still working fine according to the seller on Yahoo Auctions. Very very rare.
You can check out the auction here: National Volume Pedal. 8 hours to go and the asking price is 45,000 yen. Not cheap for a volume pedal – but for something as rare and vintage as this Japanese effects pedal curiosity well worth it.
Whoa, that looks vintage!
Yeah, it looks old enough to be Eric Claptons grandfather!
And the auction ends in 4 days, not 8 hours.
