1 week old, 10/10 condition, ships with box, manual, usb cable and all the candies.

Asking $110 shipped con/USA

The Flashback delay features 6 seconds delay time of every delay type you could ever wish for, from TC Electronic’s legendary 2290 to a slapback, with 10 different types to choose from and it also doubles as a looper!

Besides all that, the Flashback delay comes with TonePrint, so you can easily ToneTransfer your favorite delay settings. The Flashback delay also features TC Electronic’s audio tapping technology, allowing you to set delay times by strumming your guitar, and a toggle switch allows you to switch between 16th notes or dotted 8s, for a more U2-like sound.

The Flashback features a spillover on/off switch as well as Delay Time, Feedback and Repeat controls, so you are always sure you get the sound you want without any hassle. Rounding out the pedals features are a small footprint, easy access battery hatch, true bypass, an analog-dry-through and the highest grade components.

I'll weigh in for those unfamiliar: the looper is great, works well, 40 seconds per layer at which point it automatically returns to the starting point with a flash of the LED.

What's even better than the looper on this, in my opinion, is the following: set the delay time to a longer setting, say between 3-6 seconds, turn the feedback up, and match the volume of the pedal to the volume of your instrument, and turn it to the 2290 setting. Set the internal dip switch to buffered bypass, which engages the spillover function (repeats continue when you click it off at the decay rate set by the feedback knob). Some very interesting possibilities here.

Then you've got a constantly cycling mini-loop which you can disengage and play over without adding new material (remember, you've got spillover from setting the internal dip switch to 'buffered' bypass) and when you want to 'refresh' a phrase or add a new one, engage the pedal, play along (or do counterpoint over yourself), and click it off.

Sorry if this is a highjack, but this pedal is absolutely amazing, and the feedback knob will keep your signal alive from between one cycle to many, many minutes.. so many in fact I haven't found the end of the highest feedback/decay setting, and depending on your mode, it will stay very clean (2290), or die away faster (analog) with a whole lot more in between.
