Gassing for phase 99.
Graphics on the way huge make me want to give up the guitar. It's like when someone finds out you like metal and the say "oh yeah, like limp bizkit and linkin park. I listened to them before I grew up as well". Those graphics do the same thing except for distorted guitars.
Might pick one up and put it beside my EHX tone tattoo, and my 7 different tortuga overdrives.

You would need to buy the most hideous guitar ever to go with it all. Something with a lot of bad graphics. Might have to go custom but it seems right up Dean's alley.

The phase 99 looks cool as hell when I had a faysing the syncing and desyncing of the phasers was the coolest thing but not 400 cool.

Indeed. It's good that they aren't only going to be released overseas like we all thought at first...
but I still won't be getting one, & you know why

Dual phasing is the shit though
So much this. I'll probably try one anyway if the price is right. Played a PiPhase recently and it made me want a dual phaser so bad.

Yeah, the Xotic is based on the EP3 and has two internal dip switches for changing the character a bit.
It's around $100 new so the Dunlop will have to be pretty cheap to compete, I'd think.
The Belle Epoch has the Preamp and A LOT more to offer of course it cost more too.
If Catalinbread had put the gain control on the outside it would be perfect.
Yeah. If Dunlop is anywhere near $100, it probably won't sell. At the same time, they have such distribution that maybe it will sell. I doubt Xotic and Catalinbread, have the same mass production to massive distribution power that Dunlop has.

I feel like the dunlop saying echoplex would cater to the not-pedal-obsessed guitar players. Like I guarantee if my brother saw that dunlop echoplex preamp at gutiar center he'd be like "dude, gilmour used this!" and buy it on the spot without ever knowing the xotic is the same circuit.

Well they do have the money to afford the actual "Echoplex" logo.

The old pickle was awful looking too, it didn't even have a picture of a pickle on it... I make my own pickles, I know what's up with pickles.....
The phaser looks awesome too.....

Might be their best looking pedal to date...
Want to try them all. MXR/Dunlop/Way Huge is my hands down mass market favorite, big box Maxons aside.
No shitty footswitches, no shitty buffers. Killer sounds.
