MXR Custom Shop Script Phase 90 w/ LED

[Marcosrhcp007]

what is the song at 5:59???

fucking nice sound I'm gonna buy it really soon!!

[marcoamf1977]

I like the mention to us, cavemen.

[azombiestool]

Thank you for doing a demo of this including a distortion section.. you guys didnt do that with the retro version, it made me cry. YOU GUYS RULE! Really!

[SidewalkSamba]

What would you say are the tonal differences between this and the MXR Vintage Phase 45?

[rockit1985]

Nooo woman no cry!!

[ChineseR0ck]

What pedal did you use when u played Eruption?

[chasingtone]

Hey GPS, I am thinking about getting the script w/led! My question is there a volume drop with this pedal or should i need to be looking at the EVH version, I haven't played neither one of them? I'm wanting the one that has the warmest and fat Tone without volume drop. I thank you for any info. Chasingtone.

[MrTacoInc]

Thanks a lot PGS. Mine just arrived and I'm about to open it!

[markotokai]

0:10 what a song?

[live2shredguy]

@markotokai its Eruption's tapping,and guitar solo by Eddie Van Halen,from the band Van Halen,from their first album:Van Halen =) (sorry,I haven't slept in a few days)

[live2shredguy]

that Little Dreamer at the start of the video just blew me away,Thanks =D

[stbreal]

can it run on batteries

[guncore]

I just bought this pedal from you, PGS! Thank you very much!

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@guncore - Thank you, sir! Your business is appreciated.

-PGS Crew

[83eetfuk]

Would heavy distortion (Deftones, Tool etc.) wash out this pedal sound? Or would it compromise well.?

[tomiclav]

which overdrive pedal did you use at the beginning playing that EVH stuff?

[thebeatles1015]

i think the have a cigar sound just made me officaly but it

[TUMPPP]

*background music pauses* "even a caveman can do it"...hehehe :D

[w1ll1a9m]

does this pedal suck your tone ? any experiences anyone?, Ive heard so many shit I dont know what to believe about all the phase 90s

[xMuchacho]

i've heard several people claiming the block logo has a volume drop and the script logo doesn't. what's you're experience with that?

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@xMuchacho That's not what we found. The biggest different in the sound of Block vs Script is the prominent midrange in the Block's sweep and a subtle, warmer sound from the Script. If you are worried about volume drop, may we suggest the Retro Sonic Phaser which is a Script style with a depth and volume added! Thanks for watching,

-PGS

[evilvon]

@xMuchacho If anything, my block logo has a volume boost. :P

[cd871]

a little bob marley starting at 1:25.. what a great song

[elboloalimenticio]

4:30 - STP <3 

[Lucho2602]

They don't make this anymore?? cause it's not on the website... =(

[youknowyourrite1]

@jrbowen81 who the hell cares??? digital, analog, why does it have to even matter? why can't you just make music and accept that other people do, and differently than yourself?? i wouldn't buy this thing, cause i like pedals with more than one setting, so i guess this means i want the "digitech fake digital phaser" right??

idiot.

[dialaname]

Andy, i give you mad props on the bob marley song man

[FigureEightTV]

how should this go in an effect chain? if your useing a distortion pedal with it?

[copilottheband]

@FigureEightTV i would use it after distortion.

[melindagreenjeans]

Do these have an input buffer? I guess not since the original circuit didn't. So it's not true bypass and has no input buffer. I smell tone sucking.

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@melindagreenjeans - I do believe this one's buffered...we didn't detect any tone suck. Thanks!

-PGS

[joakorush2112]

Something for Nothing.

[dialaname]

I fucking LOVE the Bob Marley man, props Andy you're the best demo-er ever.

[purefunblueman]

best phaser ever

[ItsStephenSON]

whats the difference between this pedal and the other phase 90 video PGS has?

[back2thefutre]

I just got the small stone, but now I wish I had got this.

[Koen5150VH]

I'm gonna buy this one!

[RAGlauncher]

i'm just wondering... can the mxr flanger reproduce the phaser subtle sound?

[kirrevargashotmailco]

The "script" version seems to be a bit "smoother" than the block version. Can any one tell me if I'm right or wrong?

[GuitaristAidan]

@kirrevargashotmailco I'm pretty sure that's the difference, yeah :) I've unfortunately never had the chance to try either of them but I've got a pretty good idea having done research :)

[FenderMeddle94]

3:58 have a cigar!

[joakoPRIMUS]

2:30 Something For Nothing by Rush, Andy you are a genious,

[Kingredcat]

4:31 And So I Know, STP. "Very Cool!"

[marcusjamesk1]

will a standard boss adapter work with this pedal or do i need to get the dunlop version.

[semifixtion]

@marcusjamesk1 standard Boss adapter will work. I just got one of these today, and it ROCKS! Especially before distortion

[Tlarsen289]

@marcusjamesk1 Any 9 volt adapter will work. it doesnt have to be a certain brand

[Fanis753]

get the dunlop version, i did the same thing and my delay pedal wasn't working good.

[sparkyfizz93]

I have the original phase 90 :P good as it was the day it was made.

[TeeAreBee]

COME ON OVER HERE, BOY, HAVE A CIGAR, YOUR GONNA GO FAR! YOU'RE GONNA FLY HIGH! YOU'RE NEVER GONNA DIE, YOU'RE GONNA MAKE IT IF YOU TRY, THEY'RE GONNA LOVE YOU! I love pink floyd...

[mudhooker]

damn you MXR..I love you, but did you just put this out? after I just bought the vintage 74? after convincing myself I could do without the "modern conveniences" ughhhhhh

[Zaspor]

@mudhooker I just ordered the 76' dyna comp- I hope they don't do the same thing or else I'll have to like mxr a touch less-... Nevermind the pedals just sound so good Ill let them have that victory xD

[sooperkula]

I dont really think it would matter THAT much really, to be honest. I mean, do you really need an LED to tell you that the phasers on?

[tiddlywinks98712]

NO WOMAN, NO CRY

[proggah]

wahey, Something for Nothing

[TheFloydGiver]

im seeing that you like playing Pink Floyd Andy... are they a personal favorite???

[waxcoatedbanjo]

mxrs all have 4 screw battery access, bummer

[mafew129]

what song is playing at 1:30?

[ericohman]

@mafew129 i'm not sure, but it reminds me of the "no woman no cry" solo, it was years since i heard that song though...

[ericohman]

@mafew129 not sure... but it reminds me of the "no woman no cry" solo, it was years since i heard that song though...

[Giuseppetiberi]

yes! no woman no cry

[waxcoatedbanjo]

should i get it?

[gree17]

pretty sweet pedal for only $100. too bad its not true-bypass.

[huntersguitar95]

so easy even a caveman can do it (silence)...

[Pianoblacks]

lol

[Army258]

little dreamer / eruption

[6730]

i got this pedal in a wah form(Variphase) today and its bad ass

[jamesmanortiz]

whats better this or maxon pt999 phase tone?

[rshtnkv]

what's the song at 0:11?

[Zombiekeks]

Something by Van Halen... Eruption I believe

[troykeenanguitar]

@rshtnkv Eruption

[bigwhite619]

I think Eruption-Van Halen

[jingwah]

damn andy you can play anything..wow my inspiration

[yeahboyohboy]

True Bypass?

[yoghmoob232]

EVH Eruption

[seekah1]

2:32 ALEX!!! cheers Andy :)

I haven't heard the script reissues in the stores yet. Jury is still out between this baby and the Small Stone, one day I might just make up my mind, lol.

[BiaginiAlessandro]

The Boss "phase shifter" is the best phaser in the world

[Maharrol]

Where are your ears man. That is actually one of the worst phasers on the market. Boss makes some great stuff (i. e. delay, chorus, etc) but the phase shifter is horrible. I owned it and returned it.

[waxcoatedbanjo]

nah, some boss pedals arent good

[carlosdlguerra]

anyway, merry xmas and a happy new year andy and the rest of the team on pro guitarshop

[carlosdlguerra]

always a pink floyd riff!

love it

but about the pedal, it has a great sounding phaser but i mustbe aple to control everything on the phaser not only the speed

[kungpow79]

Is this true bypass?

[Treeman987]

no woman no cry! yes!

[bluepingu345]

what's the song at 0:11?

[simonegbr95]

@bluepingu345 Eddie van Halen's Eruption

[bluepingu345]

thanks :)

[arglebarglefoofara]

You don't get something for nothing, you can't have freedom for free! You won't get wise with the sleep still in your eyes, NO MATTER WHAT YOUR DREAMS MIGHT BE!!

[artgonewrong]

4:30 And So I Know....Stone Temple Pilots! Nice one, Andy!

[brbbns1]

ha-so eazy-a caveman can do it-nice! lol

[FluffyMan2121]

Eruption. Nailed it.

[fender51503]

Little dreamer and eruption sounded great!

[gothkid141]

Van Halen -"Eruption" kicks ass

[M00SIR]

ah the solo to a good Marley tune, great tones!

[2kwolfgang]

Pink Floyd "Have a Cigar" FTW!!!!

Nice tones Andy!

[PetrucciLifeson12]

I especially love these demos because you play songs from all my favorite bands. Thanks! I just picked one of these up recently, I'm loving it.

[juan12accurian]

0:11 great eruption cover

[Blurillaz]

It's actually the same circuit as the block phase 90, not the script logo reissue like they market it as....

[evilvon]

which is why i have the block phase for cheaper

[TapeMeasureandhair]

even a caveman could do it

[rsl84416]

best phaser ever made peiriod.

[Gblackie13]

MXRs....always a tone sucker...too bad...such great pedals...MAKE A BUFFER PEOPLE!!!!

[danukenator123]

great eruption cover

[ironz18]

2:32 Something for Nothing tone NAILED.

[Phishboy26]

Have a Cigar!!!!

[BonzoMcBonzo]

Something For Nothing! Awesome!!

[DeadWhiteButterflies]

I mainly don't like the pahse 90 despite everyone go on and on like it's the greatest thing ever, because there's only one knob and I like to really fuck with the frequency to create interesting sounds if there's more options available.

This though still sounds good enough. I may go check one out for myself. It's got a nice smoothness to it in the mid section. Higher speed doesn't have much depth and throb to it though.

[muram4]

theres is a phase 100 does alot e more pluse this

[RockaRollaZombie]

Get the Moog phaser if you want to fuck around.

[shortscalematt]

Nice Marley! Not much of a reason to have Analogman do these add-ons anymore. [Although he does a great job at what he does]

[AvonJunkies]

Have a Cigar! Perfect for a phaser demo

[macdaddylorenzo]

So true! Another amazing song to demo a phaser with would be Zooropa by U2

[mturquie]

Van halen's songs are the best to demo a phaser... Edie Van halen is the biggest master using the phase

[moucon]

I've got an original - one of the most musical stomp boxes ever.

[KidRichards]

Sounds Killer, Any volume boost issues like with the block logo Phase 90? I had one and that really bugged me but I love the sound.

[chucke1963]

I just got one of these and I ws a little bummed too. When playing through the clean channel and picking hard it gets distorted when phasing in the high frequencies.

Is this what you are talking about?

[Ombrenuit]

@chucke1963 maybe your pickup output is too high? These things were designed in the 70s so they probably never took super high output pickups into consideration

[yesmon4real]

Hey Andy please stop discriminating Cave Men , I'm married to one and he is a great guy , and smart, so easy on Cave Men, lol !!

Happy Holidays to you .

[astro2069]

Love the Marley bit in there man! One love all!

[PYROSF]

I wish they would do this with the 76 vintage dyna comp.

Because I like to know when my pedal is on just by looking at it.

[Snowblind333]

if you cant tell if the pedals on without an led then isnt that pedal pretty shitty? :P i mean if you cant tell when its on it must make no diffrence to your tone at all

[ihavenoname93]

have you never played a live show before?

[Acr2440]

an LED is essential when you need to check which pedals you have on and off in between songs. Otherwise you can start off the next song with the wrong effects on.

[slugbucket]

MXR makes the best pedals! I like the Phase 100

better than the Phase 90

[tony93666]

MXR(Dunlop) makes great stuff - the only pedal of theirs I don't care for is the Blue Box... ONE pedal out of their entire catalog, that's a pretty good track record!

[Bigdeezy74]

I like the pedal that plays the guitar for me and  makes me look like a walrus

[CHICKMAGNET66666]

wtf?

[tony93666]

lmao

[AvonJunkies]

hilarious

[Jacksonkellyfreak]

Woohoo Scotty!!!! Little Dreamer!!!! Props man

[xdivinebladex]

Eruption FTW

[semifixtion]

Andy, do you run your overdrive before or after the phaser?

[elbenaso]

I've got one of these and for me this sounds better before the overdrive.

[spacepartysan]

thank you for the Bob Marley solo....everlasting tune

[senojnomis]

fuck me! i just bought this from pgs, and now they bring out one with an led and power jack... fml...

[Mnuggats]

For eruption at the start, did you use the Rockbox Boiling Point, Andy?

[semifixtion]

@Mnuggats Scotty played that. I noticed Scotty really rocks the Van Halen stuff, many props dude!

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@Mnuggats Yes, the Rockbox was used for all the overdrive in the video. Scotty really nailed the EVH!

[CatGoesBOOM]

this phaser sounds so cool

[veers0r]

Is it true bypass? Or is the bypass at least good?

[GamerConor]

can anyone direct me to either of the background tracks at the beggining or end?

[vavrikpetr]

i had this one, when i disassamble it, i´ve found EVH phase 90 board inside,also with the block/script button!!!

[gothdude94]

its safe to say

that if PGS bother to demo it, its worth buying.

[stratocastermaster2]

if i bought everything that PGS demo'd

i would have a shitton of fuzz pedals.

[HKP1994]

for sure, i have this peddal, it's great

[libertyfalls]

Love the floyd!

[KG739]

phaser or chorus? which is better for distorion/overdriven solos?

[hanger1800]

@KG739 depends on your taste, though chorus can sound a bit too over-modulated in some situations

[KG739]

@hanger1800 metal mainly, but i like classic rock aswell. eruption at the start sounded amazing

[hanger1800]

@KG739 go with a phaser then, but youd want a good one, real cheap phasers from my experience kinda kill the tone and make everything sound like a half-assed alien invasion

[TaffyRaphie]

@KG739 i'd go for the phaser if i were you. a nice wah pedal can also spice up a solo

[Chumleh]

Depends. The specific pedal is pretty important. A chorus with a more shimmery feel is great, but a wetter one is going to be too much. Likewise, a smooth phaser like the P90 is great for soloing, as compared to a more funk-oriented phaser like the Bi-Phase.

[KG739]

@Chumleh thanks for the help

[guitar4life9]

probably chorus, but i prefer phaser.

[naruhina102]

LITTLE DREAMER + Eruption+ Scotty=KICKASS

[grundgeguitargod]

no woman no cry

awsome

[Adji87]

Being a caveman, I am glad it is simple :) Haha.

Good video as ever Andy mate. Happy Xmas.

[tonytoes3895]

its not you just have a slow computer

[saodmv]

why is this video such terrible quality?

[Khoifish321]

@saodmv it was just uploaded, you have to wait for it to finish encoding.... that's how all youtube vids are when they are first uploaded.

[spawnofwheezedog]

Little Dreamer!

[jahenx94]

the vibey part reminds me of Embryo No. 2 by Jimmy Page

[l33tm4n321]

first! awesome! nice job Andy! as a musician that is constantly looking into the latest pedals, I appreciate your demos! happy holidays!
