Indeed it is...and I like it better than a Phase 90 for guitar. The SS is a simple 4-stage phaser, which is the 'correct' sounding phaser to me. More deluxe phasers with more stages just sound way too warbly to me.Originally posted by Bad City

My 3 current boards are multi-effects with expression pedals. I don't think they qualify for this experiment.Administrator of the SDUGF

If I went minimalist board without the Fly Rig, I'd run the MXR Phase 90 in to the EVH 5150 Overdrive and then the Boss DM-2w Delay. Maybe even forego the Phase 90 and have the Keeley Compressor in there instead. But with any clean amp, I could run the 5150 Overdrive in to the DM-2w Delay and get pretty much every tone I needed using the guitar's controls.

Pedal Boards is form of hoarder culture and addiction that temporarily satiates our lust for consumption and collecting and fill a void in our hearts left from the depression, absence and personal failings in our lives.
It's collecting Smurfs or Hot Wheels for Adults.
2 years ago, I saw a guy at a guitar show buy a hand carved guitar stand for maybe 800 bucks and I congratulated him for reaching a collector level where that's all he could think left to purchase in a convention center full of instruments, pedals, amps and accessories.
To fight this issue, I now sell off a pedal each time I acquire one to try and strike balance in my life. I sold about 12 last year.Last edited by NegativeEase; 01-25-2021, 03:14 PM.“For me, when everything goes wrong – that’s when adventure starts.” Yvonne Chouinard

Instead come to view that as excessive if they are not used or represent something very special in the past.

Guy with a 5 space bored trying to pretend he only used three. Good god man, those 3" patch cards are nearly at the edge of their capabilities. One could rupture at any moment.

You're slipping Ace.Join me in the fight against muscular atrophy!

Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.
