"I hope you enjoy yours like I enjoy mine!"

Feature:
There are so many features, I probably only use 25% of them. However, once I become familiar with the sounds and the dynamics that this unit offers - I was hooked.

Quality:
I wish it were metal. However, I've put my full weight on it (and that is in excess of 250) and the thing has never given me any problems.

Value:
definetly worth the selling price. If I had to purchase another one today, I'd probably get another zoom.

Desirability:
actually, I wish it were black so it wouldn't show up on stage as much. However, this is really being nit picking of me.

Sound:
PROS: lots of effects and using the "edit" mode, I can make any effect sound just the way I want. Definetly worth the price, especially if you need different sounds from your rig. I play in church and the POWER, LOENHANCEMENT, SHARPUP and CHORUS settings are wonderful. As a rocker the NYS80 and Rock cabinet settings are awesome. They help tremendosly. CON: Does have a bit of hiss on some settings, but usually doesn't come threw in a live situation.

Support:
Never used online or telephone support, manual answered all my questions.

Overall:
once again - I'd purchase another in a heart beat.

"Great Value for the Price"

Feature:
Lots of functionality. Plenty of presets and user-editable presets. I like that it operates on batteries or from a power supply. Would be nice though, if you could switch it ON/OFF from one of the pedals in addition to the slide switch on the back.

Quality:
Seems fairly sturdy. The plastic is very hard and should hold up to on stage use.

Value:
Godd value for the price. Many features over and above the DigiTech BP200 which sells for the same price.

Sound:
Overall, the sound is good. However, on some patches there is a detectable digital background hiss, really noticeable at high gains. The ZNR noise reduction does help and this unit seems quieter than the DigiTech BP200.

Support:
Don't know haven't used it.

About This Product!
Description
Multimedia
Okay, we were wrong. We thought it was absolutely impossible to cram more features into a bass effects processor than in the Zoom BFX-708. Well, Zoom engineers must have found room somewhere because the New 708II is packed with new features on top of the spec set that made the BFX-708 a best-selling bass effects processor.
