Solid flanger for downtuned guitar!

I use this flanger primarily with guitar. I tune quite low (drop A#), so this works great for my use case. Your mileage may vary with a standard-tuned guitar, but these can be had for quite cheap if you look for it so it's worth a shot!

Classic '80s Flanger

If you want to emulate awesome '80s bass flanging, this is the way to go. I like this better than the MXR Micro Flanger. It has more flexibility.
