This is a new-in-the-box, never-even-been-plugged-in, Boss LM-2 Limiter guitar effects pedal.  It's pristine in every aspect, and is the "black label" model made in Japan between 1987 and 1992.  The serial number in the compartment under the on/off footswitch is #14, from what I can tell.  There's never even been a battery plugged into it.  It comes with the original box, and I was even able to find a .pdf of an owners manual online and have printed that out as well.  Contact me if you'd like more photos.  I also have it on display at a local music store and reserve the right to end the auction at any time.  You'll never find another one as clean, untouched and pristine as this one, and it's really a part of Boss/Roland history now.  You can also contact me through my private email at [email protected].  I've been sitting on this one since I bought it new at a music store in San Diego all those years ago, though I can't find the actual original owners manual.  Sorry! ;-)
