I don't think it's out yet. I know that the other pedals in this series are pretty nice so we'll have to see if it measures up.

I don't see it for sale anyplace. The last I heard they were talking late July, possibly as late as August.

here's what I saw...
but now I see other sites saying that delivery can be expected in late August.
False alarm I guess, although I followed the Imuso site to where you type in your information and they still made no mention of late delivery. If it is what I think it is (get you on the hook) then that's bad protocol.

Just another place that'll take your order and then tell you it'll be a backorder.

I don't imagine that it'll ever be as good as the real deal but I think for cheapskate, lazy-arsed guys like me that are trying to schlep as little gear as possible it's a reasonable alternative.

It's a way of modeling various devices that lets them interact with one another the same way that the real devices would. I have several pedals and a recorder that use this and they work pretty well. Weed it & Reap!

| Interesting - if true it doesn't explain why the FRV-1 demo on the Boss web site does not show the pedal sounding very "springy" ala the real deal. |

I tried one last year when Roland had an "after NAMM" show here. I posted my thoughts here:

Not being a Boss pedal fan myself, I never followed up on it to see if it ever got released. But I would have thought after a year it would be out.

The only way to find out will be to play one. I have one on order and expect it to ship soon. Yesterday the dealer told me that they thought it would be included with the Roland order they had just gotten so maybe I'll know fairly soon. I have the other two pedals in the "Legend" series and I'm satisfied with them. If I don't like this one there's always "the 'Bay".
