    Description

    Open to International Bidders! This No Reserve auction, is for a vintage 1950's CHA-CHA pedal.
    This ingenious design was brought about by the surge in the popularity of Latin Salsa music in the 1950's. It allows a conga or bongo drum player to create maraca rythms with their feet.
    As you can see from my pictures, this pedal is in good condition and it only shows a minor amount of surface wear on the footboard and center casting. Two bright orange rubber balls are positioned on the lower and upper portions of the center casting to prevent clicking or knocking sounds when the pedal is activated. Both of the rubber balls are showing signs of cracking and chipping but they are still functional.
    The wooden maracas can be easily unscrewed to allow you to transport this pedal assembly.
    Shipping and handling, including insurance, will be .00 to anywhere in the continental USA. International bidders, upon winning the auction, will need to supply me with a full shipping address with a telephone number, so that a shipping rate can be calculated. Payment must be received within 7 days of the auctions end.
