These JF Joyo/Harley Benton serie have such good reputation that you always get tempted to try yet another one out, especially since the price is very interesting and considering that they're supposed to be more or less clones of classic pedals way, way more expensive.
I'm actually not an effects guy type of guitarplayer, but sometimes it's fun trying to change ones sound. It felt cool to try out a phaser since it's both a trademark on early Van Halen records, but also on countless 70's tunes (often with a different clean sound compared to Eddie).
These pedals are housed in a metal housing that feels really sturdy, and not the cheap and weak plastic stuff you would expect for this price. That's a big plus for me. And of course handling the pedal is easy since it's just one control that change the phase effect.
I've understood that JF-06 Vintage Phase is supposed to clone the MXR Phase 90. I haven't tried that one out (or actually any other phasers at all), so I can't really tell any difference. I just like the sound that it emulates, and I also read that there's a trim pot inside that you can tweak if you open up the whole shebang. I might try that for some experiments in the future.
But for now, jamming old EVH tunes or classic rock tunes is fun as hell with this pedal.
Very affordable, feels like it might work on stage/tours, and as far as I can tell delivers the phase effect really well.
Highly recommended.
