What about a Phaser....

Post by Hacken »

Got some space in front of the Fuzz and overdrive on my board, a phaser would be fun. What to get? i like the one knob kind.
I have checked out a bunch of videos and i do like the Script Phase 90 but everything else on the board is true bypass and i like to keep it that way.
Suggestions?
Modify something?
I dont intend to spend more than say 150$

Go for a phase 90 alot of people like that. Whirlwind makes a good phase 90 clone too.

For a simple phase, I like the Small Stone. The Malekko is nice as well.

I will now pull my standard response: drop $50 more and get a used Moog. (Too big for your board probably I realize, but hey, I'm a one trick pony when it comes to phasers.)

All awesomesauce.

I also recently traded my DOD fx20b to devi for some fuzzies, I don't think those were true bypass but they sound great on the cheaps.

I use a boss PH-3 which has some great freak out sounds and can be your for 60 bucks used most places.

I know it isn't true bypass but I like having at least one boss buffer on my board, otherwise I loose alot in the signal chain from all the cable.

I have a friend with a Phase 90, I put them side by side and was able to get the exact 90 sound from the boss, plus a ton more.

I knew somebody would come dragin with the Whetstone, but my pedalboard is a PT mini, and a crowded one, just want a phaser to cover up sloppy playing and upset band mates. nothing fancy.

The whetstone is still one of my favorite phasers...I want another :omg:

I've had some nice ones but nothing quite like it.
