Simple Sam is a small boutique pedal builder whose Faze-It Phase, as the name suggests, is a phaser pedal, sweeping notch filters across the frequency spectrum to create the classic swirling modulation the format is known for. The playful spelling and naming convention fits a pattern common among small independent builders, prioritizing a distinctive, memorable identity over a strictly technical product name. Specific sweep range, stage count, and control layout for this particular circuit aren't confirmed from available sources, consistent with how sparsely documented many small-batch boutique releases tend to be.
This entry represents an MXR Phase 90, model code WA90, produced in a Wylde Audio branded colorway, a licensed collaboration pairing Zakk Wylde's guitar and gear brand with MXR's manufacturing and circuit design. The Phase 90 itself is one of the most iconic and widely used phaser circuits in guitar history, known for its simple one-knob operation and a lush, musical sweep that's appeared on countless classic recordings across genres. This Wylde Audio edition applies distinctive branding and finish associated with Zakk Wylde's aesthetic to that same trusted, decades-proven MXR circuit rather than introducing a new or different phaser design.
