I said above that I may have to replace parts to make the pedal work. It turned out that the only problem was corrosion in the phone jacks. Once I cleaned the jacks, it works.

I have listed it on eBay at

I never thought you would go through with your thinking of selling this piece of musical history.

Why?? If it were me..I would have kept it and
let my heirs have it when Im gone..

Personally I think you made a BIG mistake.
If you get $1000.00 for it..OK but anything less than that you wuz robbed.

If you dont sell it...I'll take it..and thats a promise.

$300.00??? you know my address... Image

Apparently, it was only worth $581.00(?). Whom is 'leopardguy'? Enjoy!

Yes, it jumped from $310 to $521, then to $581, and finally to $610 -- all in the last two minutes. Leopardguy is a Japanese collector who has bought a lot of expensive Hawaiian collectibles fron eBay.

Thanks to all of you for your advice and support.
