Later I would build some with solid state switching for Howard & also for Michael Wilton of Queensryche but am told the original version sounded better. The same flanger was used on Mistral Wind & Sleep Alone on the Passion Works album as well as others by Heart. I'm not sure what songs Michael used the flanger on, but it was in his rack for the Operation Mindcrime tour, and I think for the tour before that. (I can't remember what album that was).

[4 units were made - One each for Roger, Howard, and Nancy, and then the tech kept one for himself.]
There were more than that made, I did several for local lesser known musicians, (at the time) including one for Michael Wilton of Queensryche.
(...) Here's some pictures of several of the flangers I have built. The top unit is/was Howard's #1, the middle one was built for Michael Wilton, the bottom one is mine.
