Uhhhhh dude that's a 5 watt, 1 kilo ohm cement power resistor. Those are used as dropping resistors for the high voltages of big tube amps. I honestly don't know *** one is doing in a pedal??
Yeah, but it had the pins nipped off and hot glued over so I assume it was just something spare he had laying around. There's another one holding up the other side of the turretboard.
