Maxon CS-9

Picked up a Maxon CS-9 pedal for 5000 jpy. The owner thought is was not working after testing with a battery. He said the LED did not even light up. I took a chance thinking that he tested with a faulty battery under 9v. When the unit arrive, I hooked it up and what-do-you-know, it works. Below is a photo of the unit.

I also picked up a Maxon D&S and D&S II for 3000 jpy each. The owner had the similar condition thinking the unit did not work, however it worked just fine when I got it into my hands.

Now I own 5 Maxon pedals.
