Boss RC-2 Loop Station

Yup I got it last night. Seems pretty cool. More of a practice-jam pedal than an effect as you might expect. Pretty complicated little pedal too...specially for a guy who usually just goes guitar-OD-Amp or even more often Guitar-Amp.

Any tips from people who have it?

A buddy of mine has one and I've played around with it some. I could see a ton of uses in a practice or band situation where you only have 0ne guitar player. Sample the rthythym progression, then hit it to solo over.

I'm a regular user of a looper. As a matter of fact, if I were to practice
without it, I'd feel kinda nek'id Embarassed

It has helped improved my improvisation and lead work an awful lot . Lay
down a rhythm & simple bass line, and let it loop while I practice. Good for
helping arrange/create ideas too.

I actually sold it... I forget exactly what other pedal I was chasing but I am sure I sold it to pay for the other pedal.

Anyway I got a EHX Stereo memory man w/Hazarai. It has 30 seconds of SOS looping capabilities, plus all the delay capabilities. Much easier to use and much more what I need.

I'm like you, fish. I got a Digitech JamMan and it's too complicated. I wish I could get half as comfortable with a looper as KT Tunstall, but it'll never happen. I've used it more for breaking in speakers than anything else! Rolling Eyes

I use mine every time I practice, and on top of that, about 90%+ of the time
while I practice. My timing for lead type work has drastically improved and
it makes practicing so much more fun. I don't think I could ever go back to
not using one.

Here's my model.

Actually, I'm surprised they aren't used more by people. .. but that's just me I guess.
rock on folks!
