    This is a very enjoyable pedal. Would I recommend it, and is it good value? That depends on your expectations. It benefits from being used in conjunction with other pedals as on there own some of the synth tones are very dry and digital. I feed an overdrive into it, and a light reverb after. Adding fuzz to the effects loop also adds to make the overall effect more massive. That being said, I have struggled to find tones that I can use with my (rock) band in a live setting, and I was hoping it would enhance/thicken up my sound. The variations and possibilities are so vast that the sound(s) I am looking for may well still be out there...more fooling around in the bedroom required...ooer!

  • It's ok.

    Electro harmonic has better organ sounds, and with over drive is gets a bit mushy unless it's in the efx loop. But, tracks fine, and it's boss sturdy and has a expression. Pedal option. So time will tell how it holds up.

  • Most guitars better without it.

    Cheesy sounds. Very Fiddly. Not much use in a performance - takes too long to change settings. A lot of money for for something to try once and then disregard. Novelty but that's about it.

  • Usable ,no frills guitar synthesis with immaculate tracking.

    All but a few of the wilder sounds are eminently usable and in the context of a band mostly authentic. There is zero latency without the need for special pickups and the abilty to "freeze" sound while playing guitar licks over the top is the icing on the cake. Roland/ Boss have excelled themselves with this pedal which at this price makes some more expensive devices redundant.
