I reciently purchased one of the ibanez reissue FL9 flangers. I was looking for a good analog flanging sound and I almost got an electroharmonix Electric Mistress but I like the tone of the Ibanez FL9 a tad bit better. The FL9 sounds very close to the good ol mxr Flanger and you can fine tune it with some small pots inside the case.
I think it nails the vibe of some of the classic vh songs like Unchained and Ain't talking about love. It's also a quieter peddle than an old original MXR.
The flanging is rich and creamy unlike the cold-steryl sound of the newer flang effects.
Good flangers are getting hard to find and eventhough the peddle isn't cheap $130, it gets that Van Halen vibe better than the Boss flanger and is quieter than an original MXR flanger. It also fits into your peddleboard better.
