What did you do exactly that you are able to blow up an effect pedal? Real curious...

What do you mean by "mistakenly plug in".....
But if there WAS an explosion, chances of saving it are pretty slim. Looks like you might have to buy a new one. |

Thanx for ur help n kindness : In the instruction manual already said mah... always use boss adaptors :-) But if the explosion is not due to wrong voltage... then you must really share with us what you did. I have bought & sold many boss pedals (currently have 11) & none of them ever gave me any problems. |
