Looking for a good affordable Flanger.

I have an Electro Harmonix Neo Mistress and while the effect is really, really nice sounding to my ears I can't really recommend it because it is very noisy. It's totally a love/hate relationship with this pedal! Just thought I would chime in with something to maybe avoid. Not sure what the price is on it but I found one in mint condition used.

Although this may be true. The EHX Stereo Electric Mistress is a pretty darn good flanger for cheap with the added bonus of the chorus effect. Works great with bass. No noise issues whatsoever.

I felt the same about this. Great flanger effect, but the noise is totally unbearable.

the dirt-cheap Danelectro Fab series has a solid, great little unit- 15 bucks.
compares favorably to the classics, and is quiet.

I own a danelectro fab flange. It sound great on bass. Also this flanger pedal has the most deepest resonance I ever heard on a flanger pedal. I wish danelectro would make a cool cat edition of this pedal because the cool cat series of pedals are cased in metal.
