Boss BF-2 Flanger – MIJ Japan Black Label Silver screw – Vintage Analog Flanger
Description
This is an early-production Boss BF-2 Flanger, made in Japan, with the sought-after Black Label and the original silver thumb screw.
Serial number 9700 places this pedal in the very first production runs of the BF-2 — a four-digit serial from 1980, the model's first year. The original silver screw is intact, along with all four backplate screws. Collectors look for exactly this combination: Black Label, silver screw, four-digit serial, no modifications.
Compared to the later Green Label MIJ and Taiwan versions, these earliest units are the most sought after among collectors, and the analog flanger circuit delivers the rich, organic modulation the BF-2 is known for — ideal for 80s rock, new wave, shoegaze, funk, and ambient textures.
