Thanks Chris – very helpful. I have watched quite a few videos on YouTube about
the pedal, and certainly its basic functioning seems accessible. One of its
features is that it has I think it is 99 storage slots for loops, and this is
one of the areas that might be problematic in terms of where to store a new
lube, and how then to retrieve it. My feeling is that this part of the
functionality might be associated with screen information.
i’m glad you mentioned Andertons music because I’ve had good service from
them, buying my new electric and acoustic from them in the last few months.

Hi Andy,
I'm not sure about this particular looper pedal, but Boss stuff tends to be
pretty good in terms of accessibility.
I don't know how long you've been playing, or how familiar you are with
finding fx, so please accept my apologies if I'm preaching to the choir here,
but when looking for pedals, I generally look out for things like whether or
not they have touch screens, how their menus (if any) are activated.
There's a shop called Andertons, who I've bought a fair amount of stuff off
before. I've rang them up, and they've actually got the stuff out of the box
to check for things like menu wrapping (whether or not you can roll a jog
wheel all the way in a particular direction and it loops around to the start
of the menu or not), and whether or not trip switches make noise when certain
things happen.
My gut reaction if it were me would be watch a bunch of Youtube videos on the
pedal, and see what it sounds like. Generally if you can follow what the
youtuber is telling you, you'll be able to do the thing when you've got the
pedal in your hands.
Hope this helps, and sorry again if I'm telling you stuff you already know.
Take care,
Chris Norman

At the moment I am considering the Boss RC-3 looper pedal, but I’m wondering
how accessible its features are? Can anybody say?
