Wow that's awesome. I get the impression the rate isn't supposed to be random though, which makes it kinda iffy if parts have already gone bad to that extent.

Meh, if I ever had surplus money I'd buy all that surplus ehx stuff, working or not. They've done a lot of different things and if they archived all of it, balls would die. It's a good aesthetic up until the XO stuff...some of it's okay, but the big box game was their's.

Already? After nearly 50 years? It's done well to not need a service yet, if anything's wrong it'll be the electrolytics & tantalum caps going (20 years is a reasonable life for them).

I think it is meant to be a fairly useless random effect though so it's probably normal, I didn't do much research in to this one back when I was doing my EHX shit as the descriptions made it seem of little interest.

Yeah, 'already' was a bad word, I forgot how old it was. If it's SUPPOSED to be random, then that's sweet, especially that it still works fine.

There's one of those things at my local music store.
Super freaky, I think there some of Mike Matthews hairs in it.
