Re: Educate me on the Boss FZ-2
I really hope someone buys one expecting to be able to make it sound klon
Not.
Not.

I mean I don't think anyone thinks that Klons sound bad?

I kid, of course. But I'd still rather that people made Klons sound like FZ-2s than the other way around.
I'm more like a mids-ist than a bassist.

I like this thread 

Fuzzonaut about the RM-1N:
"Amp in a box"?
No, there's no amp in there - tone fairies and feedback goblins live inside this box.

I don't really care if you want a Klon/e or whatever, but can't we just call it a tubescreamer? Fucking seriously, there are so many variations of that circuit now, I find it difficult to believe that overpaying for one makes it "the best".
Tubescreamers get a lot of hate around here but they're pretty handy really and hardly the worst thing ever and you don't have to use them for their intended purpose.
You know, they'd pair up pretty good with the FZ2 for that mid scoop and some extra gnarl, for instance.
TLDR: CALL A TUBESCREAMER A FUCKING TUBESCREAMER. USE ONE OR DON'T, WHO FUCKING CARES?

Re: Educate me on the Boss FZ-2
So, my BILF entry will be four tubescreamers in a klon buffered true bypass loop, with a shimmer verb at the end.

Re: Educate me on the Boss FZ-2
I’ve been eyeballing a FZ-2 forever but they’re stupid expensive now and rare as hell it seems. Reverb has two, $300 and $600 respectively.
I’m really thinking about pulling the plug on a Demon Lung when Abominable starts selling them again. But I do wish I could snag an OG for a reasonable price.

Yeah. Behringer is definitely ass. I never imagined that the FZ-2 would be a collector's item.

Re: Educate me on the Boss FZ-2
Neither did I, the price on those has really exploded this year. Makes me sad I missed picking one up for $100 back in February because I was broke.
