I keep strumming PF's, "Breathe" over and over again since I got....

Breathe-itis occurs early and often whenever I pick up my guitar... some of my favorite accomplices:


MojoVibe (spot on)

MOOG phaser (over the top but holy F*&$)

Doppelganger (expensive! I should really sell this thing)


(And not to pick nits, but if you're only playing Em/A, you've got early stage B.I. and it's nothing to worry about. Those sevenths are what'll kill you in the end.)

 

 

How much do you like the dopplganger? I got to play one of these last week and decided I wanted one...but only scratched the surface. Is it really worth it over say the moog?

Thanks dude... I'll try that. What I really wanted was a Maestro Phaser that I had in my youth and foolishly sold. Now they go for like $200... no thanks.

 

I don't think I'll be disappointed though with this baby. I have the Mistress flanger and I can't live without that one.

Congrats kevorkazito. I like both settings but when you get yours, try setting the knob to 12:00-1:00 o'clock and use the more subtle setting (down position).

Swirlies are a drug, for sure.

 

Here's my list, tho you certainly have the King of Spades

with that Leslie (the 147 t'would be d'Ace.)

 

 

Phasers:

Mutron Phaser II

Mutron Biphase

Maestro PH-1a

Maestro Stage phaser

Maestro mini-phase (why more?)

Ibanez FP-777

Peavey Stereo chorus (big ol rubber button model...does a good phase/vibe)

 

Flangers:

AD/A (w/expression pedal)

Ibanez FL-9

EH EM

Boss BF-1

 

The Odds:

Morley Rotating Synth - oil can

H&K Rotosphere

2 Deltalab boxes w/flanging capability

Leslie Trem (a rotating 6x9, not a true leslie)

2 Magnatone BVM's (heavy vibrato amps, like a 280, made for organ)

 

The gf nearly threw me out the day I got the Rotosphere.

She was sure I had done some drugs because of all

the PF I was playing.

Is it worth it? Hard to say.

 

I bought mine back in the day before collector's prices made it such a huge investment. Would I buy one today for $600? No.

 

The thing about the Dopp is it's essentially a SUPER-versatile Univibe. It's a four-stage phaser, so it won't get the super-deep swirl of the MOOG, which has both 6 and 12-stage phasing.

 

If I was you and had the cash to spend, I'd get a great Univibe clone (Mojo Vibe, for example) and the MOOG instead of the Dopp.

 

(Other considerations: it's very large and it's very rare. As a result, I don't gig with it. Another reason to consider other pedals instead. I get all the swirly sounds I want out of just the Moog and the Mojo.)

I borrowed one of those for a week or so a while ago. I fell in love with it. They sound great. If I could find a schematic for one I'd be in heaven.
