Up for grabs are THREE used genuine BOSS older / vintage battery clip - battery terminals. ONE has the GRAY oval part and is from the early 1980s. And TWO have the BLACK oval part - is one late from late 1980s and the other is from the 1990s). These are a genuine Boss parts that that are about 34 to 42 years old.

  • NO pedal included - NO other pedal parts included.

NOTE: Since the GRAY Vinyl Covering on the Oval Part and the BLACK Vinyl Covering of the Oval Part of ONE the Boss Black battery clips have separated at the left & right areas on the side where the wires go on to the oval part - SEE pictures # 6, # 7, # 10, and, #11 - I'm selling AS IS / FINAL SALE / NO RETURNS.

  • Or I can substitute these two battery clips with two other used / pre-owned Boss battery clips (with Black Oval part) that do not have vinyl covering separation issues on the oval parts. Message me. Sorry at the moment - I do not have any more that are gray.

I am also including two new NON Boss battery clips - the both have black oval parts (incase you need them for a different pedal project(s). And two pieces of electrical heat shrink tubing (for doing a secure connection). You can cut the heat shrink tubing to your desired length(s).

Prior of me taking off the battery clips from the pedals that they were originally from - they worked fine.

  • But the GRAY Vinyl Covering on the Oval Part and the BLACK Vinyl Covering of the Oval Part of ONE the Boss Black battery clips have separated at the left & right areas on the side where the wires go on to the oval part. I'm selling AS IS / FINAL SALE / NO RETURNS.
  • SEE pictures # 6, # 7, # 10, and $ 11.
  • Therefore there is a possibility that the vinyl coverings on the OVAL parts of these two battery clips they will eventually come off more or come of completely- resulting in these two battery clips to possibly not work any more.
  • The occurrence (or chance) of this happening is more if the pedals that you are putting these two battery clips on will be used very frequently with a battery.
  • Therefore selling them AS IS - FINAL SALE- NO RETURNS.
  • If necessary- I can sell you only what you need - message me or make and offer with a message.
  • Or I can substitute these two battery clips with two other used / pre-owned Boss battery clips (with Black Oval part) that do not have vinyl covering separation issues on the oval parts. Message me. Sorry at the moment - I do not have any more that are gray.
  • Also on hand - available for sale upon request - I have other genuine used / pre-owned genuine Boss battery clips (taken off of Boss pedals various years) that are do not have issues with the vinyl covering on the oval part. Please message me if you would like to see pictures of them. And then we can go from these.

The black vinyl material on the other Boss Black battery clip is fine.

  • See pictures # 16 and # 17

NOTE: I totally get the frustration of buying and /or  having a vintage or kind of vintage Boss pedal that has a damaged and / or unusable battery clip. Therefore --  I hope that I have somethings you really need (& that you can use) to make your pedal(s) complete again.

As I stated above - prior of me taking off the battery clips from the pedals that they were originally from - they worked fine.

NOTE:

Most of the wires for the BOSS battery clips are not long enough to directly put on to (solder on to) where the wires need to be attached to on the pedal(s) that your putting it / them on. Therefore - just cut off the oval part end or your battery clip and leave the original wire on. For the best and strongest repair - do a SOLDER connection. Use the electrical heat shrink tubing as a reinforcement.

  • You can have a guitar tech or a friend do the repair - or you can do it yourself. If necessary - you can see people doing guitar repairs and pedals repair on You Tube.

The two new NON Boss battery clip each have black oval ends and are the same design (in terms of the way that the wires are positioned on the oval part) as the Boss battery clip.

They are both fine / clean. The wires are just a little wavy / lightly curved. The positive / negative metal terminals are fine.

They are two different lengths:
