Maxon have consistently produced fantastic delay pedals and the AD-900 is one of their best. This is one of the later units with MN3008s, as opposed to MN3005s. The latter chip gets all the glory but users who've tried both say there's little to no tonal difference. I've also owned an AD-999, and still own the Pro version, and I'm always amazed by the low the noise floor on these Maxon delays, achieved by the highest quality parts and superior engineering. The 900's repeats have a gorgeous percussive quality, similar to a Deluxe Memory Man, but slightly darker in tone and fuller in body. Not so dark though that they turn into mush, but they won't clutter your playing.

Requires a 12V, centre positive power adapter (most modern pedals are 9V centre negative). 12V is easily available on contemporary power supplies by Cioks, Voodoo Labs, Strymon etc, you just need to use a centre positive cable. I have a Voodoo Labs cable that I can include in the sale if you need it. Please don't hesitate to contact me with questions if you have them.

In excellent condition, most of the scratches are limited to its underside. Comes with original box and instruction book.
