'74 VINTAGE PHASE 90

$159.99Reference price

A vintage-style phaser that recreates the original 1974 Phase 90 with hand-wired construction. Hand-selected, pair-matched FETs reproduce the phase sound of the era, and it uses Switchcraft jacks and a durable bypass switch. With just a SPEED knob, its simple operation suits a wide range of genres including rock, funk, and blues.

A reissue phaser reviving the 1974 Phase 90 with hand wiring

A model based on a 1974 original of the Phase 90, MXR's earliest phaser, with the circuit recreated through hand wiring. It aims to stay faithful to the period specification in both sound and appearance.

Period phase sound from hand-selected FETs

Hand-selected, pair-matched FETs reproduce the smooth, warm phase sound characteristic of early Phase 90s. Operated with the SPEED knob alone, it covers everything from slow undulation to fast rotary movement reminiscent of a Leslie speaker.

Faithful build with modern durability

While following the early model's look of an orange enclosure with the script logo, it uses Switchcraft jacks and a durable bypass switch. It suits the genres where vintage phasers have long been used, including rock, funk, and blues.

  • Hand-wired reissue based on a 1974 original
  • Hand-selected, pair-matched FETs
  • Simple control with a single SPEED knob
  • Switchcraft jacks and durable bypass switch
  • Faithful script-logo and orange-enclosure looks
