This is a vintage analog phaser in an elegant blue colori very basic but very effective in Ibanez.
Works with a 9V battery, no AC adapter inlet.
UTILIZATION
Then use the point of view, is simple: a switch and a button to adjust the speed of the effect!
I did not have the manual because I bought it on ebay used (and then to find the manual for a pedal that has more than 30 years is not won!) But it really is not help!
SOUND QUALITY
Then of course there is the strong point! From mild phaser hovering at the Pink Floyd in arpeggio or agreement (listen to the effect on the guitar in the song "Cold Brains" by Beck on the album Mutations that is exactly what its there). You can also put a very fast (bottom button) to get a sound very retro 60's ... Coupled with a distortion (ie a ProCo Rat) is a nice effect too, a little at a Sonic Youth or if you set a slower speed would approach it a bit of a noisy Flanger ... For all kinds is also a must.
FYI, I use a Les Paul studio mainly but also with a Fender'62 Reissue Jaguar and a Fender Deville and ampl it sounds!
Namely: the effect also makes good tred on a vintage keyboard (I use an old Farfisa) and also on the voice (speed up) for an effect on the aquatic hovering Sébastien Tellier. (See the song 'Universe' on the album 'The Unbelievable Truth' to get an idea)
OVERALL OPINION
I use it for about 2 years and I never sell it! I love that pure, original, and not analog like most chemical phase multi-effect pedals or bad. I like its ease of use. It does not consume much, which is interesting for a pedal that does not have a transformer 9v jack. It is also robust: it took a lot of beer, ash and projectiles of any kind in concert and has no default.
I would do the purchase without hesitation, knowing that in addition, I bought it on ebay to a guy who did not know what it was and that have paid € 50 ...! ! ! Well do not dream too much anyway, usually on ebay, it turns over between 120 and 170 € ...
