the greatest "for cheap" Flanger sound out there
this was the first pedal I ever bought and i couldn't figure out how to hook it in for 6 months. I was a newb, okay! hahah then once i figured out how, it blew my mind. This has a fantastic sound. The jet sweep on this is the greatest tone it has, although it's also a good clone for an Electric Mistress as it has an out of control swirl to it. It also contains one of the weirdest, most vibey vibrative qualities to it. It's definitely worth getting as an experiment pedal, or if you're a big fan of Flanger you MUST get this to go with the other Flanger sounds you've got, as I'm sure you don't have this sound. Danelectro pedals aren't always good, or worth buying, but this one among a few others are absolutely worth it.
This thing is worth tasting and freaky looking too
Cheap. But not crap as you could think at first glance. Cheesy look which I adore, a sense of humour is here. And the flanger effect that it gives suits me okay. For noe retro 90's new wave sound it's all ready to go. three controls.. well enough. If you don't take gear seriously as hell - this baby is alright. A giant purple bug at your feet, wooombling and bleeeeping and whooooing... a cool pedal.
