    A lot of fun and it's Boss so you know it'll last forever.

    This is a fun pedal. It cannot be used on all types of music but for those that need a certain something - this is it. I play a lot of classic rock style of music and this pedal fits in well. Of course it's a Boss so it's solid and will last forever. It allows you to shape your sound from a full on swirl to a barely there accent. It also sends to make a natural 80"s rock sound if you're into that. As I say a lot of fun. I wouldn't get this if I was playing heavy rock or metal but I use it sparingly on just about everything else.

    A workable value pedal

    It's difficult to say any thing concretely negative about the pedal...the clean sound has some variance to work around with and will allow you to create some useable sounds. However, once the distortion comes on you might as well be on the wave rider because it becomes an over riding space cruiser. Either way I like it.

  • If you're into flangers, this is a great...

    If you're into flangers, this is a great pedal that can put out some pretty cool sounds. It should be mentioned that this BF-2 model from the 90s-00s has classic analog circuitry with a single input and traditional mono output, whereas the newer BF-3 has a digital signal processor with guitar+bass inputs and stereo output.

  • Terrific mod!

    This isn't the easiest mod to perform if you don't have any experience. But if you can pull it off, your BF-2 flanger will stay on your pedalboard! I have the MXR 117r and the Mistress Deluxe. Now this Boss BF-2 with the fromel mods sounds better than both of them. The flashing led before activating is a nice touch. The whole pedal just sounds thicker with more girth to the sound. The lows are more pronounced. I strongly suggest that you have some experience soldering before trying this mod. It requires good vision, or a magnifying glass and a steady hand. I picked up the pedal for $45 and with the $20 mod, it sounds like a very high end flanger you would get from a botique pedal manufacturer. Great deal! Now I'm gonna look into more fromel mods!

  • Great flanger! Boss vs mxr...

    I bought this and the mxr flanger 117. I recommend the boss flanger over the mxr. The boss not only has a comparable sound but the volume doesn't quiet down when engaged like the mxr. It's also smaller on the pedal board and runs on a standard 9 v vs two 9 vs for the mxr.

  • Flanger effect is a matter of taste...you either like it or don't. It may or may not fit your playing style and sound.

    What can you say bad about a Boss pedal. They are not boutique (and don't cost like it), and most people know what they are buying when they choose Boss. Great all around selection of effects and the BF-2 is one of them.

  • Boss BF-2 Flanger

    The Boss BF-2 is one of the most sought after guitar pedal that are now out of production. It's sound is closest to the classic sound used by many artists from the classic rock era. It sounds better than it's earlier counterpart the BF-1 and it's modern version, the BF-3. The black label (made in Japan) are the best of the lot and can fetch a higher price if in reasonable shape.

  • BOSS BF2 flanger. The purple box to metal up your effects chain.

    From barely noticeable to full on jet engine swoosh. BOSS is king of the 80's pedal boom. Very consistent quality and innovation at affordable prices.

  • The Japanese black label bf2 flanger is the best flanger money can buy.

    For my money, it's the boss bf2 flanger. I've tried them all and I keep coming back to this one.. not just for sound, but for size, overall compatibility with other pedals, especially boss pedals, and reliability. I don't know why boss doesnt keep making pedals sound like this anymore. They think it's more important to look the same. Sad.

  • Classic Boss BF2 Flanger.

    It's the classic Boss Flanger of the 80's that's heard on a many hit songs. Used to have one of these on my board and felt it was time to have another one. Made in Japan, get one while you still can!
