I recently won one these pedals on eBay. Does anybody have any info on the pedal or the brand. Seems to be a not-so-well-known japanese brand. Google doesn't really help. The seller said the pedal was from the late 70's.

I have taken some pictures here: http://www.getdropbox.com/gallery/18229 ... y?h=13230b

The pictures of the circuit board suck though, as it was difficult to get a good look on the part side (didn't want to remove the pots). I noticed the pedal has the same IC's as the Electric Mistress, so I started comparing the Rozz with the following schematic: http://www.freeinfosociety.com/electron ... php?id=383.. I didn't bother tracing a schematic, but the areas I compared with the EM schematic was a perfect match (no filter matrix switch on the rozz though), so it would seem that this is a Electric Mistress 'clone'.

The pedal is cosmetically in quite poor condition, but electronically it works, and sounds good. Not bad for 39 dollars.

I could try taking some better pictures if anyone wants..

PS. The LED indicator on this seems a bit wierd. It is on all the time, and there is no difference in brightness during effect on, and bypass. Not sure if it supposed to be this way, or if something is broken. I haven't had time to investigate it yet.
