Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.48% — somewhat different

The Citadel Planetary Phase is a phaser pedal from Citadel, delivering warm, sweeping phase-shift modulation with the brand's focus on characterful, musically-informed circuit design. Built for players wanting classic phaser modulation with genuine tonal personality, it offers a boutique take on the phase-shift effect category.
The MXR Phase 100 is a four-stage phaser with an Intensity control offering four phasing textures, a richer, more pronounced cousin of the Phase 90. Used by Glenn Tipton, it delivers lush, swirling modulation from subtle to dramatic, suited to rock rhythm and lead. Its extra control range makes it more versatile than the simpler Phase 90.
