In today's video, we shootout four different phaser pedals: the Mutron Phasor III, the Walrus Audio Lillian Phaser, the MXR Phase 90, & the JHS Series 3 Phaser. If you're a guitarist shopping around for best phaser pedal in 2023, you should be able get a good idea of how these four pedals compare to each other. I provide tonal examples of each phaser and I also review of each phaser; sharing my thoughts on each pedal's tone, feature set, & value. The phasers were first in the signal path after the guitar. Any overdrive that was utilized was located after the phaser in the signal chain.
