74 effects. 120 presets.

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.

once again - I'd purchase another in a heart beat.
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.
Features
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.
Manufacturer Support
Never used online or telephone support, manual answered all my questions.
The Wow Factor
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.

Musical Style:

country - rock - gospel
