Before you buy the Boss MS3 by Blue Collar Gear Review

What is up gear nerds? Just a quick demo and show case on some features and overall 'reach' the Boss MS3. This is a video of how it fits not how it works to help you determine if this unit will fit on your board or with your pedals. Great unit, I have an opinion on the ergonomics, but overall, it is a powerful unit.

I've always been intrigued by the MS-3. Good points made on here regarding the setup.

Thank you for watching! I ended up getting rid of this unit but it’s worth a look.

​@@bluecollargearreview what do you use instead ? Thanks

I use the Boss Cable Kit with mine, with a Rockboard Tres 3.1 board

[@bluecollargearreview]

Definitely suggest it!

I've got a looper with two rows of connections on it.... To avoid costs with expensive cables I'm now using a big board to accomodate looper cables with normal size straight 1/4 inch jacks. Before I used Harley Benton cable kits only to come to the conclusion that you will eventually run out of space on the looper despite very small connectors. Also got a lot of poor connections with the cables in time. Great vid and tips!

Thank you for watching! You’ve also confirmed the exact point, to account for cables and space when building a rig. What I have personally found to be frustrating is buying something only to have to buy something else to make it work the way I wanted. Cheers!

If you place your MS3 on a pedaltrain where the cables drop between the rails, all the cables can drop straight down and you don’t have to bend them sideways at all. Pretty simple concept. This definitely wouldn’t work with a Temple board though but that seems obvious.

[@bluecollargearreview]

Yup! The exact point. You have to ‘account’ for cable routing in some fashion. Thanks for watching and comment!

Don’t point the 90degree cables down, point them up.

[@bluecollargearreview]

Thanks for watching! George L’s or some other custom cable kit may be the solution here.

[@ianlee0414]

Use EBS cables

[@bluecollargearreview]

Thank you for watching! Good cables are essential.

I'm sorry but this video is worthless. Come on!

[@bluecollargearreview]

Thanks for watching anyway.
