Has anyone heard of vintage MK1 MK2 Walt Byrd effect pedals?
I was talking to another collector and he has told me he has these vintage MK1 & MK2 style housings in blue that are branded under the Walt Byrd name called the Tone Distortioner?
I hope that some of you vintage fuzz heads can help me out with how rare these pedals are and what they are worth?
Thanks

Sounds pretty obscure, I am posting just to keep up developments.

Hi.
I am new to the forum and maybe do not have bragging rights yet, but here is a pic of both from my collection.
Knobs have been changed on the Mk I style pedal, Ithey should be bigger and I have them still.

They are definately not made by Solasound, that much I know.
I have done some research on them and from memory my conclusion was that they were made in Italy.
