I had a GT-8 for a year & just couldn't get it right as it does too much & is too fiddly. I'm looking at getting one of these or a GT-5 (If I can find one)...
@JKillick007 I don't have the thing with me right now...it's at the band house. If i did I could walk you thrrough some of it....If you don't have the manual you can download it on the Boss website...Good luck with it and have fun...it's a cool effects processor
@THEGUYD0WNTHESTREET Yes it was worth it!! I love this thing now that i've kind of figured my way around it.. Seemed a bit intimidating at first but it's really pretty user friendly. Pluss it's got alot of cool stuff on it...most likely more than i will ever use ... but i have the option now
but it depends what your lookn for,this unit has a classic boss sound,very fat and rich.If you like the newer boss product tone its not for you.Progamed right this unit can sound so analog and and full sounding.
Sold my GT-8/ME-25/ME-50 & kept my GT-3 ;)

Does anyone know what year this originally came out?

I just got one off eBay for £80 :D
I bought a Boss ME-25 last week too but I think I'll like the GT3 better. I'm not into using amp sims just the effects...

Dude,
I just got this thing and I am so happy with it,
Only thing I dont get it how I assign different sounds to pedals,
so for example I would like
Pedal One- Crunch for rhythm
Pedal Two-Lead distortion or whatever
Pedal Three-Strat sound
Pedal Four-Some thing with loads of delay
But all sounds are grouped together, makes no sense to me.
