Listed on Reverb.com in 2013 by Boingosaurus Music LLC. According to the description, it was used on the eponymous Skid Row album.

For sale is a vintage and rare 1972 Electro Harmonix Triangle Knob Big Muff Pi Fuzz effects pedal. This unit sounds AMAZING. The tone of it is simply unparalleled. It works perfectly as it should, and is in good cosmetic shape with typical wear from use.

This pedal was owned by Dave "Snake" Sabo of Skid Row. He used this particular pedal on their first album (that went platinum 5 times) "Skid Row". I have documentation from Dave that will be included.

The pedal comes as pictured.
