All The Young Phasers

MXR: P95 (which lives in the P45 setting)

That settings great, they really killed it with that pedal!

Agreed! My 3rd pedal ever was a P45, which was my first non distortion/fuzz pedal. I really love the subtle phasing.

I enjoy my MXR Phase 45 (Script) as well. My brother has that fancy MXR "1974 Vintage Phase 90" and it sounds ... well, just how everyone thinks a phaser should sound. Definitely good. But the Phase 45 is special!

I got my arion in. It is snazzy If you manage to get the trim pots in the right spot I find the basic sound is same as PH-1R, the LFO shape and everything, except the resonance is different, a little more formant vocal like on the arion. I also enjoy hearing the stereo output on its own for a more univibe like character.

I don't have a PH-1R anymore, but I think the Arion has a certain sound on its own. Maybe that's because I did a complete recap on my unit? Some electrolytic capacitors inside are really tiny (especially those with the low value of 0.1µF and 0.22µF) and I doubt that they are fully working these days.

Time for a thread update.

Last night a rather lovely Locobox made Viva Special PH-01 arrived, in its box and in rather great condition. It's quite subtle but the more I play with the more I enjoy it a great deal, very seventies, reminds me strongly of some of the phasing tones on early 70s recordings, such as "YES - The YES album"). It seesm the dry signal is always mixed in quite high so it never overwhelms things. That brand is to my knowledge quite rare. More commonly found under the Washburn name in the UK for example.

Anyway, here is the updated list of the Phase inventory (excluding "Leslie" type effects many of which are closest phasers!)

And here is the retro gem.

I have a Japanese guitar magazine advert somewhere with the brand advertised, iirc it was 1983 or 1984.

It has "somewhat" spiralled.

No wonder I am so poor

Thanks!

I just can't resist. But it is rather irconic that I have no phaser on my board...I should!

One is proabably enough...well maybe there's always room for ONE more

If I had to buy one starting from scratch it would probably be the MXR Phase 95..maybe
