Rating
Very nice pedal from Boss. Sturdy, reliable & relatively easy to use. The Humanizer effect is interesting, allowing you to do more than just “wah”. Now you can “I-EE” and “AY-OH” as well, should you desire to do so. The “Down” is my favorite but there are enough settings that you are sure to find one you like. I found the controls a bit touchy and it was a little difficult to find the exact sound I wanted without a fair amount of knob tweaking. The pedal tends to be a little weak on it’s own but I play it after a tubescreamer and it sounds great. I’m sure there are better pedals out there, but none with a humanizer effect.
