Any neat trimpots to play around with inside this thing? I kinda want that Paul Gilbert "paul vs. Godzilla" crazy sound, which i know is a modded flanger.

Don't think I've ever seen a schem for a BF-3. Unlikely there will be trimpots to do anything useful... The ones on the earlier pedals (BF-2, CH-2, etc) are there to set the BBD bias and clock timing.

THe factory settings on the earlier ones are the only settings that really work and you need a scope to get them set - playing around with them can cause problems.

Paul uses an old modified ADA flanger, so it's very hard to get those same crazy sounds he gets with a stock pedal.

He also uses an EH polyflanger and an electric mistress on some songs with crazy sounds.

He keeps changing pedals on his board so it's really hard to track what's going on half the time.

Oh my god his pedalboard changes every 5 minutes! Could a PS-5 possibly do the job?
