M101 Phase 90
MXR Phase-90 Phaser. This is the one-knob phaser that has, for all practical purposes, dominated all other phasers that have come before, or since...
Thermionic Studios owns four (4) Phase 90 pedals available for rental:
- Two (2) CSP101SL "Script" Phase 90s,
- One (1) EVH90 EVH-Edition Phase 90, and,
- One (1) EVHSE90 EVH-35th Anniversary Phase 90
IRONY: Despite making the article about the standard "block" Phase 90 phaser, we don't have any standard MXR Block Phase 90 phaser pedals. We have nothing against the standard block phasers, we just don't think they sound AS GOOD as the older script-logo architecture model; we don't think they offer the best sounds - we believe musicians are more partial to the sounds of the script logo pedal.
If you're attached to the block pedal sound, it's possible to use an EVH-Phase 90 with the "script" button not pressed in.
If you're interested in renting one of our Phase-90s, please don't hesitate to contact us.

The Script Button
EVH SE Phase 90
This is exactly the same pedal as the EVH90 version of the Phase 90. It has the black-on-white motif of early Eddie Van Halen, but is functionally no different. We got this because we were able to get a good deal on it, and because we thought it would be cool to pair with the EVH117 Flanger that also shares the black-on-white style motif.
- Being exactly the same model, except for the different paint job, the Eddie Van Halen 35th Anniversary version also has the "script" button. It functions in exactly the same manner.
