SUNBURST, you may not have a lot of petals but the ones you have are pretty cool.

Here's my list.

DS-1
HM-2
MZ-2
FZ-2
MT-2
PW-2
MD-2
CH-1
PS-5
DD-6
PH-3 (I got 2 of these bad boys)
DC-3
DM-2
BF-2
BF-3
EH-2
TR-2
PN-2
AW-3

never realized how bad I need a OVERDRIVE. I also need some EQ'S and a noise gate. Oh, and the smilies represent how I feel about the pedal.

With how simple the Fuzz Face circuit is you could build it a lot cheaper than buying Jim Dunlop's overpriced version.

The BF-3 is digital but I don't like to call it gnasty. I much prefer it to the BF-2 but I favour the HF-2 in front of both the BF models.

I like the BF-3 for it's cool panning effect. Most of my favorite pedals that I own are digital (DC-3, BF-3, DD-6).

I still need to get my hands on a HF-2. I'm interested in it because of the ocatve higher thing that it's known for.

"Boss Advertisement text(2002):

I don't think that it is building on the 20-year legacy if the circuits are nothing alike.

The footcontroller is a little overpriced, but if you open up your Uni-Vibe you'll see it's a very complicated and expensive circuit. Multi-layered circuit board, at least a dozen big integrated cicuits, and almost every resistor in there is a low-tolerance metal film resistor.

Welcome to the forum, bosing.

It looks like you started off your collection with some real tasty pedals there.

Dam Bosing, your into the vintage. I've been collecting for like a year I still haven't found any silver screws. In fear of some of them being fake I tend to disregard silver screws, but that's just me.

XOXO

bosing, it looks like you started yr collection with some really good ones! I just bought my first silver-screw pedal, some 11 years after I bought my first Boss pedal, for a total of 34 pedals (31 different -- BF-2 MIJ and MIT plus three SD-1s -- 1 MIJ, 2 modded), all of them Boss.... bwah ha ha ha!

speaking of the BF-2/BF-3, I bought my BF-3 a couple of years ago with the intention of it replacing my MIT BF-2, but I never could dial in my two favorite BF-2 settings on it. and my MIJ BF-2 sounds noticeably different (or at least its controls are more sensitive?) from my MIT BF-2....

I've decided to take this discussion over to the modifications area.
