MXR Phase 90 :)

[FenderBender03]

I just bought one of these in hopes of gettin that classic "waylon" sound. The intro to "Are You Sure Hank Done It this Way", and "Lukenbach Texas" sounded SO much like the record does! I plugged this baby in and was blown away by the accurate and authentic tone just like one those old records! If any of you are looking for a phase pedal, get an MXR Phase 90! Its the one pedal that i've heard and owned that actually sounds like the old records that i'm trying to immulate! This things well worth the $69.99 price tag.

i sprung for the EVH phase 90 so i could go from the script version to the regular version and i'm 100% happy with it, great sounding pedal!! i hate to use sig. gear but sometimes it's worth it...like it was with the evh phase and my dimebag wah.

This is easily gonna be my favorite effect, mainly because i've been after this sound for years and just found out last week that a phase shifter was what i was looking for, and like i said in my earlier post, i was blown away at how much it sounds like some of these old records that i love.

I almost bought the EVH model yesterday. It is $129 at GC. I decided to go home and dial up the phaser on my TC Electronics G-Force before spending the cash. I was able to pretty close using the rack unit but the EVH pedal sure looks killler. Not a single negative review on HC either.

Re: MXR Phase 90

I also saw the EVH model on musiciansfriend.com when i ordered my phase 90. I really don't see how a EVH paint job and an "edginess" switch can make the price jump from $69.99 up to $129.99 for the EVH model. Also, i play country 90% of the time, so something with EVH's name and paint scheme on it wouldn't really belong in my collection anyhow. Now i'm glad i bought the regular phase 90, its the best pedal i've played with by far!

I agree with that.. I'd bet at least $30/40 per unit goes towards the endorsement deal, right into EVH's pocket! I bet a little Phase 90 would liven up Clint Black's "Walking Away".

Re: MXR Phase 90

Good call on the Clint Black tune.... but honestly, i'd wanna use it on EVERY tune!! But seriously, anytime i play most Waylon stuff, this phase 90 gonna be goin strong!
