just got a Boss DF-2

[Imp]

yep, a super feedbacker and distortion :burnout:

quite a raw, rough, ready garage rock sound - thinner than a DS-1 (at least, my spina-mod one ) and admittedly a bit more buzzy..

the feedbacker, though.. i dunno what to make of it yet. its unusual, it dosen't sound much like feedback yet, buts a hell of a cool noise

anyone else gotten one of these? (theyre discontinued, kinda unusual)... whatcha think?

I had one back in the day. I didn't really know what I was doing with it at the time. It was neat, but I sold it. I wish I hadn't, though. :yell:

I had one before it got stolen. I have the same effect on a Roland GP-100 preamp. The feedback thing is great when you learn to use it, it actually sounds real if you use it right. Takes a bit of playing around though.

I have that on my GT5 although it's more of a "hold" function. I use it to get single note drones and then noodle over that... it's fun!!

Re: just got a Boss DF-2

yea, i'm using it almost like you would a sustain pedal on a keyboard, but i have to take my shoes off to push it in time properly hehe

its an odd pedal alright, its meant to sound like a DS-1, but the stock DS-1 (i found one to compare) dosen't sound that close...

still. nice pedal. and its mine at last:burnout:

they're still around on ebay fairly cheap i think... mine was about the price of a new DS-1, but i love it as a feedback effect and a talking point
