The Boss BF1 is a flanger pedal designed for use with electric guitar, but will work with just about any type of electronic instrument. The pedal is an analog one and is one that has 1/4 inch connections. This isn't a rack mountable piece of gear as it is a foot pedal.
UTILIZATION
Using the Boss BF1 is quite simple and even those without any prior experience with pedals like this one I wouldn't expect that they would have much trouble figuring it out. The pedal simple has parameters for manual, depth, rate, and resonance all in the form of knobs. That is pretty much all there is to the pedal, so as you can see it is quite simple in make up. Beyond this there isn't much to the configuration of the pedal and for this reason I don't think that manual is necessary.
SOUND QUALITY
The sound quality of the Boss BF1 is incredible. It is one of the best flanger pedals that I have heard and is just as good as a lot of outboard flangers that I have used as well. Since it is a vintage pedal, it definitely has a vintage sound to it, meaning that it is warm and has an analog type of tone. It has a rich sound that is round overall, and is versatile as playing with the parameters will give you a variety of different tones. I usually use the pedal for recording with a Fender Strat and either a '76 Fender Twin Reverb or a '65 Fender Deluxe Reverb.
OVERALL OPINION
I really don't have anything bad to say about the Boss BF1 as it is a classic pedal that predates all of the flangers to follow in the Boss line. They are hard to find and will cost a decent amount of change to get one, but it is definitely possible to find them for sale. Unless you have to have the original one and are committed to getting a vintage flanger tone, I would suggest at least looking into the BF2 and the BF3 Boss pedals, at least to contrast which will work best for you and the sound that you are going for.
