Phaser Pedals & Flanger Pedals

Phaser pedals and flanger pedals will give your electric guitar a fuller sound.

Phaser pedals, or phase shifters, work by creating a series of filter peaks and modulating their center frequencies.
(Vibe pedals will give you a similar sound to a phaser pedal.) 

Flanger effects pedal doubles your guitar signal and plays both back together. 

Macdaddy Music sells a variety of phaser and flanger pedals from brands such as Electro-Harmonix, Keeley, Source Audio, and Dunlop/MXR.

A phaser pedal (also known as a phase shifter) adds movement by modulating the center frequencies of filter peaks.

Who uses a phaser?

Phaser pedals became popular back in the 1960s. This effect was used by Jimi Hendrix, Brian May, and Eddie Van Halen. EVH was fond of the Phase 90 - check out MXR EVH90 Eddie Van Halen Phase 90.
