It just sounds amazing

I love the simplicity and sound of the pedal. It is a bit annoying that you have to be sure it's not on when you stop playing, as there's no led indicator. It's par for the course though and the vintage vibe and sound is great!

The mother phaser

Only speed can be adjusted. No activity LED. Underwelming features.

So what's to like about this pedal? Well, its sound of course :-) I really like this phaser pedal after having owned many others. It seems to add some very subtle grit and character as well. I use it both on guitar and keyboards.

Too muche noise, by far...

Very, very disappointed by the sound out of this pedal; very noisy, the switch is even more noisy when activated or de-activated with big and brutal noise. Can't believe this for a pedal at a such price. The pedal has been tested with very Strymon Ojai and other quality power supplies, cables,etc. Instant return. Impossible this to appreciate the phaser effect itself.

The best phase effect.

This reissue offers an amazing movement to your guitar sound, just like on most classic recordings from 70's. If you search for that iconic sound, this is it.

Superb reissue!

Beautiful sounding phase pedal. Very basic controls - just one knob - but that's all you need. Used by many of the greats, including Jimmy Page. This pedal is essential if you want to cover virtually anything by Thin Lizzy - it's all over their albums!

A minor gripe is the absence of a DC jack. I know it's a vintage reissue, & it was absent on the original, but Dunlop could have used a little common sense here, as unlike their fuzz faces, the Phase 90 sounds equally as good with a power supply as with a battery.

best of all the phase 90's

I have have the standard phase 90, custom shop script with led and this one, this is by far the warmest, the others are great for other applications, If your looking for a uni vibe sound with one knob this is it,,
