Some go for more. I bet you could find one cheaper, but it doesn't happen everyday. It's a good price.

It's a flanger, supposed to flange only trebles. I didn't ever heard one, but I'm sure it's lot of fun.

If you're not interested, I might be...

I've got one, it's really cool, better than a BF-2 but not as good as an Electric Mistress, but it's rarer. It's really good for 80's new wave stuff like the Cure and it's pretty subtle but great sounding.

a while back they were only going for $50 USD, takem while you can at anything under $100 US. I just sold my minty NIB for only $79 on ebay a few weeks ago. only one bidder so there's not much demand for them now.

i would say that price is solid. not exactly a steal though. i would consider buying it for that price.

i use it before (yes before) my OS-2 and other distortions for that ultra light Eddie Van Halen flange. putting it before distortion covers up a lot of the flange so you can just barely hear a hint of it.

That's a damn good buy, mine was $60 delivered from the USA which I thought was pretty good. I run mine behind my distortions/fuzzes set to comb filter for feedback.

I also got one this past year and a empty box in another trade!...Talk about psychic connections!

The HF-2 is more subtle than those awful metal Flangers from the 80's which makes people's stomach growl...

go light on the flange ppl

Tomorrow I will be purchasing an HF-2 and a TW-1 for a total price of $100, gotta love Craigslist. Although I don't really use an auto-wah, and I think I will probably only use the HF-2 to play "Barracuda" by Heart, and "Bark at the Moon" by Ozzy.
