Check out this Excellent condition, and gorgeous looking/sounding Matthews Effects The Botanist modulation pedal, including the original box. Lush multi-mod pedal, featuring Chorus, Phaser and Tremolo. Sweetwater summed it up great:

Marvelously Herbaceous Modulation

The Botanist pedal by Matthews Effects sprouts some seriously mesmerizing modulation effects — a trio of them, to be exact! Ingeniously planting Phaser, Chorus, and Harmonic Tremolo modes into your pedal chain, The Botanist allows guitarists to harvest thrice the modulation creativity of a traditional modulation effect. A simplified control surface presents a 3-way selector for each effect, plus dedicated knobs for Mix, Rate, and Depth that allow guitarists to dial in respective presence, speed, and dimensionality of their chosen mode. Traverse an ecosystem of swirl, warble, and choppiness, or depress the footswitch to unleash The Botanist’s “Hold” function — a max-out of the Depth control for quick bursts of chaos. Guitarists at Sweetwater have found this space-conscious stompbox to be an exciting addition for the traveling musician while also offering invaluable remote control MIDI competency that works wonders anywhere you play.

Swirl, warble, and chop
As guitarists, we all know that modulation pedals are some of the coolest, most hypnotic effects in your signal chain. And luckily for us, The Botanist has a bushel to choose from! Psychedelic swirls and subtle, drawn-out panning are the bread and butter of The Botanist’s Phaser mode. The Chorus mode is happy to deliver if you’re after a bit more of that wobbly retro warble. Finally, the Harmonic Tremolo aboard The Botanist is a true force to be reckoned with, especially when intensifying the parameters. From minuscule pulses to heavy chopping with some serious gravitational pull, this pedal has the remedy.

Remarkable MIDI controlling
One thing that Sweetwater gearheads love about Matthews Effects is their impressive and remarkably streamlined MIDI usability. Utilizing a separate MIDI controller, such as The Futurist (another Matthews Effects masterpiece), The Botanist allows you to conveniently craft and archive up to six presets of your favorite parameter settings created with the pedal. You can recall these presets for professional-grade studio tracking fluidity or instantaneous track-specific sonics while navigating live set lists. The Botanist’s side-mounted 1/8-inch MIDI connection is standing at the ready!
