Do you have one? You could pull the code off the top of the chip.

That's assuming the tops o' the chips are visible without unassembling the pedal.

Well, it's easy to pull them out. All the stuff is board mounted.

What if the board is mounted upside-down?

I've taken their pedals apart. They are extremely simple to disassemble.

Also, based on their other pedals, the board is probably facing the backplate and it doesn't look like they sand the chips.

You guys crack me up and I love you.
I was asking for a friend- no I don't have one.
I did wind up calling Pigtronix and they are MN3207's
