I wanted to use my MXR Phase 90 ( block logo, therefore manufactured sometime between 1977 and 1984 – I bought it for ten bucks from a kid in the building WZ lived in when we first moved to L.A. ), which I managed to set so that the rate and tone of the phase-sweep ( yes, I know the Phase 90 has only one knob, but there is an internal control as well ) accented the guitar riff in a cool way

As you can from the picture, taken from Tom's instagram, he uses/owns the Phase 90.

In the video, it is shown that Billy used two Phase 90s, labelled "2" and "3". "MXR Phase 90s I've used for years to kind of get more movement during solos... like for example, on the 'Oceania' solo, I use the Phase 90 and the [Fulltone] catalyst, so you get some movement in the lead," he said in this Premier Guitar interview at (5:20).

"That Carbon Copy is the best delay I've ever used, hands down, no contest... The Cry Baby wah-wah pedal is more than just another piece of gear on my pedalboard. I purchased one the day I bought my first guitar and have never played a show without in the last 25 years. The same goes for the MXR Phase 90, and the mustard yellow Distortion+. It's at core of my personal sound, I use it as lead channel, I use it in a set position as much as I use it in an up and down motion. I couldn't live without it!"

An MXR Phase 90 can just about be seen in one of these photos! Not clear whether it's the reissue or the 'script' version though.

I have this old and pretty rare - there used to be this company called Way Huge - it was an all hand-built overdrive. Sounds great, works great. Like I said, I try to keep it simple," in [this interview](http://guitar.com/articles/if-its-broke-aaron-fink-breaking-benjamin).

Steve Jones used the MXR orange phaser live when he was in the Sex Pistols. He said in an interview with Ultimate Guitar it was a Phase 45 (https://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/interviews/the_classic_albums_never_mind_the_bollocks_heres_the_sex_pistols.html) He mentions recording "Anarchy in the UK" with an MXR Phase 90 in a 2017 interview, seen here: http://teamrock.com/feature/2017-10-24/the-guitar-stories-behind-never-mind-the-bollocks-by-steve-jones 0:21 & 1:07 of the video shows an orange phaser on the floor at his feet, & based on the orange color & sound, it's clearly an MXR phaser. Given that he himself has mentioned he used both the Phase 90 & the Phase 45, who knows what phaser he actually used. Either way, it was an MXR. While I've confirmed Steve Jones used a Phase 45 &/or MXR Phase 90, I'm not sure of which specific MXR Phase 90 version he used, but I'd guess it's the script version. Here's why I believe it's the script version of the Phase 90 and not the later block logo version: according to the Sex Pistols' official website section on "Anarchy in the UK," (http://www.sexpistolsofficial.com/records/anarchy-in-the-uk-7/) the song was first released as a single on November 26, 1976. According to the Wikipedia page on the MXR Phase 90 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MXR_Phase_90), the block logo version of the Phase 90 wasn't released until the next year in 1977, meaning it would have been impossible for Steve Jones to use the block logo Phase 90 to record Anarchy in the UK, as the block logo Phase 90 hadn't been released yet. However, there was a transitional period between the debut of the original Phase 90 in 1974 and the update to the block logo version in 1977 where some Phase 90s with script logos had the circuits from the newer block version, and vice versa. So while it's impossible to know the exact circuitry version in Jones' personal Phase 90, we can confirm that the phaser he used on "Anarchy in the UK" was indeed an MXR Phase 90, as seen in the video of the Sex Pistols performing "Anarchy in the UK" in 1976, and in the aforementioned interview where Jones explicitly states he used an MXR Phase 90. Personally, I'd recommend trying an MXR Phase 95 to replicate Steve Jones' sound with the Sex Pistols. While we don't know what circuitry version was in Jones' MXR phaser, or whether it was a 45 or 90, the MXR Phase 95 can switch between script/block circuitry & 45/90 modes, and it's an MXR phaser like Steve Jones used in the Sex Pistols. Hope this helps!

"I wanted to explore these new instruments to find out what they could do. Try to make a new language for them. I’d been working at home with the synth and drum machine. Began in 1978 with an Arp Odyssey, an Elka string machine, a Roland 301 Space Echo and a Roland CR78 drum machine and a four track. " "CM: 'Can we have a list of your gear?' JF: 'I couldn’t possibly list all of Benge’s gear but if I work alone then sometimes I record the CR78 and then work on top of this with both analogue and digital synths and effects. I mainly use the Aryp Odyssey and the Roland Vocoder. I believe in using a limited palette of sounds - with just one or two in real focus for the track. The star sounds. This allows for consistency and some innovation at the same time. Arp Odyssey Arp Sequencer Roland Vocoder Plus Elka Strings Moog Minimoog Roland Juno 60 Roland CR78 Roland 909 Outboard: Roland Space Echo 301 MXR Phaser - orange footwitch type Electro Harmonix Electric Mistress Flanger." - Interview, John Foxx - Computer Music Magazine (unknown issue)

"Obviously we occasionally use the delay, a delay. A couple different delays. But a (MXR) Phase 90, Roto-vibe. We do a lot of breakdowns, so we've got basic choruses."

In this interview he says, "I have a pretty basic setup. I use two Gibson Les Paul Goldtops live. For my main dirty sound I use a Marshall JCM 800 or a Diezel Herbert through a Marshall 1960 Cabinet. For my clean sound I use a '65 Twin Reverb. I have a few pedals which are an MXR GT-OD to overdrive my clean sound for a buzzy sound. I have an MXR Phase 90 and a Micro Chorus for modulation stuff, and a boost pedal for solos."

> The MXR Phase 90 is an original and a little odd since it’s obviously a block logo but has a circuit closer to the Script (single op amps). I compared it to a buddy’s Script Logo version and mine had a tad faster sweep and more low end throb.
