Title: anyone have a Boomerang they wanna sell?
Post by: Walker done done on January 16, 2013, 06:02:03 PM
Time for me to finally get one.  Anyone selling?

Which one do I want to get?  I'm tempted to just go for the orignal but if you think otherwise I'd like to hear why.  Any other tips/advice about them is appreciated.  Thanks!

The new one has 3 completely independent loops and a bonus fourth one that not many people use. Its not quite as seamless as the original boomerang IMO. Basically the original is exactly as it looks while the 3 has a ton of extra features and is way smaller. I really like the volume roller on the original that the new one doesnt have (I believe). The obvious difference is price, about $150 vs. $450 for a new 3.

Mine's not for sale buddy, dont even ask  ;D

That's the most reasonably priced one I found for sale on the bay. Good luck hunting one down!

I like the 3. Sound quality is supposed to be better. It doesn't have the roller, but it has a volume knob that is pretty easy to change with your foot.

It has tons of functions and you pick 4 to have easily accessible.

Yeah but I'm just not looking to dump that kind of cash on the 3 right now, so (for now) I think I'll go with the 1, see if I like it enough, and maybe down the road I'll grab a 3.  I really appreciate all the input guys!

No, and I was outbid on the one on eBay so I guess it was fate not to get one.

Hey SourD - can I take you up on your offer to borrow your 'Rang to see if I like it?

Sure. I will drop it off next time I am in the big city.
