MXR Black distortion + from the 80's?

Post by Confuzzled »

Just picked one up from a friend and I noticed that inside the battery compartment theres a town of prongs that look like they attach to a ribbon cable. Anyone know what this was used for?

Think I read about those prongs somewhere but can't remember what, where or when. Very helpful, I'm sure.

That aside, Town of Prongs is a good band name, yes. Also, how many is "a town"?

Looking at pics online I see they are labelled "interface", i suspect its intended for some sort of switching system
