I still have the DD-20 and the LS-2. I sold off my DC-2 because I found that the Behringer sounded exactly the same and it was 200 bucks cheaper. And I also use the Behringer SYB instead of the Boss (in fact, I have two of them, one for each board). I don't think the DD-20 is going anywhere because it's the cheapest digital delay I know of that has multiple save spots, which I need for my covers band. I really need another LS-2, those things are just insanely useful.

My biggest problem with the BF-3 was that it seemed to be muddy almost?

I've made the decision that the Boss RE-20 is my favourite delay that i've used. It's not the most expensive or highend but it's just so versatile.

The RE and DD-20 are both still on my list of delays I really want to try.

i always just wear socks at gigs and everything else gets painful after a while. ibanez tone-lok and 10 series are great also IMO.

yeah i like the action but the switch itself is SUPER tiny on those. the 10 series is a lot better in that respect.

I have a boss Digital Dimension (DC-3). It fucking rules.
For a digital chorus, it sounds lush.....but really evil and sinister.
And it actually sounds like two guitars.

I'm getting backwards' FZ-2 this week.
FUCKING STOKED :doom:!

FZ-2 came in.
Love it.
Stacking with BAT BF is yielding some awesome tones.

I know some people that call BOSS pedals toys. My statement is "they're solid" they aren't crap, they aren't the most amazing. Most of them have several sweet spots in them. I frequently use the Blues Driver as baseline reference point. I hardly ever use my Metal Zone anymore (it was my first pedal. The raddest distortion they had at Mars Music). Had some DDs....a 5 and a 7...they served their purpose but got sold. Boss is consistently marginally relevant. They have some products that are a bit reaching and wonky, but a DS-1 is...solid.
