Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was looking for an original from the 70s initially, but found that they tended to cost even more than the reissue, so for pure convenience I went with the reissue and I was not disappointed.
It seems very well built, with solid metal casing and quality pots. The only thing that feels at all cheap is the thin dc power adapter cable, but it seems far more convenient than the original fat AC cable coming out.
The sound range you can create is quite versatile for a flanger. Once you get the hang of what each pot does you can quickly create anything from classic tough sweeping jet plane sounds, to softer "chorus" type effects.
It seems to really excels at its job when you provide it with a noisy or distorted signal. Such as in a chain after a distortion pedal or with a synth using a very open filter or with a noise source added to the signal chain. Part of this is probably that the effect is very easy to hear in the higher register, so the more complexity you add in the high end the more you can hear it chew that signal.
I would say it has some very specific classic uses and clearly isn't for everyone, but it does what it does extremely well.
