Boss Phaser PH-1R MIJ Japan Black Label 1983

Condition: Very Good

Vintage 1983 Boss PH-1R Phaser, Made in Japan with the desirable black label and early production circuitry. The PH-1R is prized for its warm, analog phase-shifting tones and unique Resonance control, allowing everything from subtle movement to deep, swirling modulation effects. Boss pedals have been used by countless legendary artists, including David Gilmour, Prince, and Joe Satriani. The PH-1R remains a favorite among vintage pedal collectors seeking classic Japanese-made effects. Produced during Boss's golden era of Japanese manufacturing, the PH-1R was among the first compact phasers to offer adjustable resonance, helping it stand out from competing designs of the period.

This pedal has been tested and functions as intended and expected. As shown in the pictures, this particular item has some superficial cosmetic blemishes and scratches not uncommon with a vintage pedal. Item is missing the rubber gasket by the battery casing and silver cap on knob. The pedal itself, however, still sounds absolutely amazing.
