🎸 Ibanez PH-7 Phaser – the underrated wave machine 🎸

For sale: an Ibanez PH-7 Phaser from the Tone-Lok series. Legendary not only for its sound but also for its bizarre design: knobs you can actually push down and hide – perfect if you’re paranoid about your bandmates messing with your tone during rehearsal (or if you vacuum near your pedalboard).

Features:

• 2 modes: Modern and Classic – from smooth 70s swirl to gritty 90s wobble.
• Push-down “Tone-Lok” knobs – hide your settings from prying eyes or from yourself when you forget how you dialed them in.
• Built like a tank – rumor has it the Tone-Lok pedals were tested by NASA for Mars rovers.
• Classic Ibanez reliability: always underrated, never disappointing.

Fun facts about the Tone-Lok series:

• Often used as doorstoppers in rehearsal rooms.
• One PH-7 allegedly stabilized a broken washing machine while still being used at a gig.
• Guitarists argue whether the knobs are innovative or just an elaborate prank from Ibanez engineers.

Famous (fictional) users:

• Klaus “The Mist” Nebel, who performed 45-minute phaser solos accompanied only by fog machines.
• DJ Schrödinger’s Cat, whose entire techno set runs through a PH-7 – whether it’s on or not remains a mystery.
• Ulrike van Delay, avant-garde jazz guitarist who ran her PH-7 through a vacuum cleaner amp (but only in D#).
