J also uses very light strings, I'm told, so it's probably not too horrible.

Also, I just got a Boss RC-2 Loop Station. Once I got a hang of the "single footswitch looper" thing it became a barrel of fun.

Srsly dudes, get a looper. Best song writing tool evar.

IDMG:
The DOD DFX9 is alright and really cheap.

Melodic:
I really hate my RC-2! Too bad literally all of my music hinges on it working properly!!

Basically, there are a number of things I think are wrong with the way the RC-2 works, mainly how you have to hold down the footswitch to delete a track, and double-tap to stop. This makes timing difficult and convoluted in a live environment. My ideal looper is actually the (horribly eccentric) Boomerang III but it's A) $500 and B) ugly as fukk.

IDMG:
I've found that stopping playback and deleting the recorded loops at the same time is the most effecient way to do thing, though I think the FS-5U footswitch might be a decent investment.

Oh, I got my RC-2 basically for free. Traded out a Musket fuzz for it (good sounding pedal but doesn't get along with modulation or delay that well).

Melodic:
Ugh, yeah, I could buy another clunky Boss footswitch to make the RC-2 worth it. Next problem? Need a bigger pedalboard. My PT-2 just filled up thanks to a PolyTune Mini and Malekko Trem.
