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.49% — somewhat different

Citation/mention fame — how often this gear is cited across artist rigs and gear discussion.Phased Out is another explicitly labeled clone release from W-LM, this time reproducing a phaser circuit rather than the compressor targeted by the builder's Compression Fracture release. As with any clone pedal, the goal is faithfully recreating a specific existing phaser's sweep character and control behavior rather than introducing an original circuit design, giving players access to a particular sought-after phaser tone without the cost of an original vintage or boutique unit. Which specific phaser circuit this targets isn't confirmed from available sources, though the name suggests a connection to an established phaser design within the vintage or boutique effects world.
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.
