In the market for a flanger pedal. Currently I have a Fulltone Bass Drive, Line 6 DL4, and Crybaby Bass Wah. Price aside, curious how you'd rank the following and why. Thanks.

o MXR Flanger $139
o EHX Deluxe Electric Mistress $134
o EHX Electric Mistress (+chorus)- $105
o Boss BF3 $119

i'd get a used BF-2 if size is an issue, and a deluxe electric mistress if it isn't. both are some fatass sounding flangers

I have the BF-2 and BF-3 and prefer the sound of the BF-3 much more. It also has several more features that you may or may not like better. Not a fan of the MXR or EHX flangers.

A used BF-2 is where it's at. $20-$30 on ebay and has plenty of flangey sounds.

If you're cool with getting one used, then I'd pick up a DOD FX72. I think it slaughters the BF-2 and BF-3. The Mistress (both versions) is a very "different" sounding flanger, not like any other I've ever tried. Never tried the MXR
