Building on the 20-year legacy of the famous Boss BF-2, the new BF-3 Flanger pedal gives guitarists and bassists an updated version of the classic Boss flanger with the thickest stereo flanging sounds ever. Two new modes (Ultra and Gate/Pan-) create stereo flanging with incredible depth-even Slicer-type effects and sounds that seem to "swirl" around the listener. An instant classic.
Quality: Its boss so its built like a rock. I've had a Mt-2 Metal Zone for 4 yrs and its been like a brick.
Value: The price is a bit much but its worth it. I got mine for $180 (CAN). It was a bit more than the digitech 1 but in the long run it was better.
Desirability: I bough it.
Sound: Great sound if ur looking for crazy flanger. Lots of control over the sound. It sounds a bit better than the digitech hyper flanger in my opinon. Like most boss stompboxes the sound is a bit sterile but awesome.
Support: I had to get my Metal Zone repaired once and its was fastish (took a week or so) and well done. Never actually had to deal with boss.
Overall: I can safely say that this pedal will bring me years of joy. Its Great!
