This is an insane display of pedal necromancy!!

Funny extra details to add: I happened to encounter the previous owner of this MKI a few years ago, and he boasted that he bought the pedal together with a vintage MKI SupaFuzz in 1994 for the princely sum of £15 :shocked:

That restoration is a real piece of wabi-sabi beauty (assuming I understand that term correctly)
