Ebay of the Day: Maestro Rhythm'n'Sound

If your cult effects pedals box is looking a bit empty, you could do worse than pick up a Maestro Rhythm'n'Sound - a very weird guitar pedal with built in rhythms, fuzz and octave. Inevitably, the Beastie Boys and Crystal Method have used these, and it may or may not have the same Fuzz circuit as the Maestro Fuzztone, which was used on Satisfaction by the Stones. (Thanks, Brandon)

i might be wrong, but i think this machine doesnt have rhythms, it has drum sounds that are triggered by you hitting a string on the guitar that meets the threshold to trigger them, so you can play a bongo sound by clouting the strings...

I think my stepfather used one of these with his saxophone... at least, I know he had one, and he didn't play guitar...
 
Maestro made a similar unit for wind players. Eddie Harris used one.
