    The button switches between the sound of the old "script-logo" Phase 90 and the new Phase 90.

    Basically, it's a Phase 90 with a cool paint job and a cool blue LED.

          I stumbled upon it while checking out the Dunlop site. Looks incredibly sweet. The Script mode era Phase 90 is supposedly the best. Here you can switch between the old school style and the new one modded to EVH's specs.

          And of course, the most important feature, the blue led

I wonder if it incorporates the very mods that we have been talking about on this forum.

              I'm pretty sure the mods we did to our MXR Phase 90s are different. We took the modern ones and removed a few resistors/capacitors to smoothen it, take away some distortion and make it more transparent.

              I like my pedal with the mods, but it isn't near as apparent when engaged as before. It's definitely there, but you have to really listen for it.

                I've played through an old script logo Phase 45 (two stages of phase) and it was even milder than the script phase 90 ... I'd just like a script era phase 90 switchable to phase 45 with a depth control, and better headroom and noise specs ...

                  Wow, Eddie seems to be lending striped paint jobs to just about everything these days. Next thing you know, the soccer mom down the street will be driving a red, white, and black striped minivan.

                    Hmmm, might have to get one of those.

                    The older mxr phase 90s definitely sound better than the new ones.

                      I still say to find an old BOSS PH-1R, four stages of phase shift (like the 90), rate, depth, and resonance controls ... very versatile.

                        There was a picture up on the site(jimdunlop.com) but for some reason they pulled it off sometime on Wednesday. It had an older picture of Eddie. My guess is they forgot to call his lawyers and get permission to use his likeness in their ad.

                          What is this Phase 90 mod I'm hearing about that everyone did except for me? I feel so left out... someone private message me the mod so I feel cool again!
