    Ive never been a Boss "fan" necessarily, but Ive always respected them for what they do and how they do it.
    They are inventive. They keep prices reasonable. They make products that work as advertised. They make products that last.
    To me...Boss has been the standard for many years in the pedal market. They are the bar that other companies have to work towards.
    Much respect Boss.

    I love Boss gear and use their pedals exclusively. Reasonably priced, built like tanks (my original MT-2 still looks almost new), and easy to use. If you have no idea what to do with the pedal, plug it in, set the knobs at noon and it sounds great.

I only got to spend time in Tokyo, but we did go to Shinjuku and Akihabara. The people in the arcades were indeed super crazy! The businessmen going after work and playing and dancing were pretty off the hook too. Thanks for sharing your experience, it brought back many pleasant memories - including buying really awesome rare CD's in Hard Off! :-)

    Sweet videography. The music and slow mo in the busy streets really captured a serenity of the place, though Im sure at the time it would have been really fast paced and loud. I would recommend adding a black outline to your white text at the end, or blur out the footage because the text does seem to get lost. What camera do you use?
