Cheap 'n Cheerful Multi-FX

[largo]

Some advice needed please ....
I've never been one to bother with effects but with Christmas coming up & a run of party gigs I thought about "mucking" about with a couple of songs we plan on doing. We're planning on Mercy by Duffy, I Kissed a Girl by Katie Perry and we already do some 70's Disco and the likes. So, I was thinking of buying a cheap effects unit to see me through 7 or 8 gis over Christmas. Any ideas? What's the Behringer FEX800 like ? I know it's not bass effects as such, but it's just a play about for now and is only £40'ish.

One word.... ZOOM.

For a cheap 'multi' you will get excellent bag for your buck with a Zoom!

Either:
A used BFX708 can be picked up for very little money and I would highly recommend them.
It will do about anything you need from a Fx unit.

or:
A B2 for a little more cash.

(I have no a vested interest in Zoom, I just think that for the price they cannot be beaten).

Bugga, sorry didn't check the stickies before posting. After reading it think I'll go with a Zoom B2 to start with. Nice, compact and cheap if I can find one across on evilbay !
