Missing Boss OD-2 control panel

What's Hot

I unearthed some old nuggets from a distant corner of the loft last night including my old Boss OD-2.

It seems that during my Van Halen phase in the 1980s I removed the control panel:



I've used the Boss website to locate a local repair company, I just thought it would be worth asking if anyone on the forum has an idea of the best place I might go for a replacement?

    The only way you are likely to find a replacement is by cannibalising a dead example. Perhaps try a fine tipped sharpie.

    I have two or three dead Boss pedals - yes really... they do very occasionally die unrepairably - but none are OD-2Rs. In fact given that it's all discrete components inside it's pretty unlikely for one to be beyond repair, you'll probably need to find one where there's been a really bad battery leak or something like that.

    They're only about 20 - 30 quid.
