BOSS RC-5 vs the RC-1 - What's the Difference?

#looperpedal #BOSSPedals #rc500

If you ask me, the BOSS RC-5 is a great looper pedal and I think that if you're into looper pedals [which nearly every guitar player should be], getting one is a great choice for a myriad of reasons.

That said, some of these devices can get quite tricky to use because of their many settings and configurations. Thankfully, the RC-5 is a fully-featured looper pedal that isn't terribly difficult to use.

If there is something you don't like about it, you'll more than likely be able to change it in the settings. In my view, it's a better pedal and one that'll probably last you a lot longer than a simpler device like the RC-1.

That said, if you're intimidated by the many controls, the RC-1 may be a better choice.
