I was fumbling through some stuff in the basement and ran across what I believe to be a very rare vintage fender amp accessory made by JHD Audio called a "Ice Cube-Super Cube sustain and reverb coupler" that I believe was mainly made for pre-1978 Fender reverb amps.

Looks like JHD made the "ice cube" and at some point made the "ice cube 2" , the super cube 2 and at some point
made one with sustain and reverb control called the "ice cube ~ Super cube" with sustain and reverb control.

Anyone know anything else about the one pictured here "Ice cube super cube"?

I had an original "Ice Cube" years ago but I've never seen the later Super Cube. Hazarding a "WAG", I'd surmise that it's intended to be used in conjunction with the amp's reverb tank (rather than replace it as with the previous Ice Cube). Thus the option for reverb is retained and the slider control permits blending the reverb and sustain effects, with footswitch controllability thrown in as a bonus.

I put it on auction and so far it's not looking like it's a sought after piece at all. Right after I posted it, someone else posted one at a BIN price (with paperwork).. The really strange thing is, under their profile it says they're from the same town I'm in. Oh well I'll keep digging.
