does it come with the adapter?

The replacement is probably nearly 35 euros anyway..

If you're collecting, you may really like this. If you're looking for a robust giggable pedal... maybe just collect it instead!

According to the manual, you can use a standard PSA adapter with the BE-5. I think �35 is a very good price. I don't know the BE-5, but I can't imagine it not being worth the money.

Ive been using mu old Ds-1 for vocals and I think I could use the be-5 to add dist/od plus some colouting from the delay+chorus.

I know a few people who has this(one still has and uses it regularly) ..it is made of plastic so i don't know how it would stand up to constant gigging but you can get some good sounds out of it and it's very easy to use...i wouldn't be suprised if the chorus was a CE-2 based circuit.....even through my mates crappy amp a knock off LP this unit sounds good....well worth 35 euro...

well, I'm not disappointed.
Obviously its not a machine designed to be abused but the sounds are classic boss and I have plans for it.

Thanks everyone for the feedback
