£89 at G4M, think I’ll be getting one.

Sounds spot on. I was a huge fan of of the Moog, and actually had Tom @ COG make me a custom slimmed down version in a small enclosure many years ago... but I kept going back to the big boy, for its niggles and PITA power requirements. This looks like really impressive alternative. Big win.

Do you still have the Cog?

I do not. If you go to the Cog custom section on the website and scroll right to the bottom, it is the very last pedal on the page! I sold it on some years ago (along with my entire pedal and bass collection) during some financial hardship, which is thankfully long behind me now. I do miss it greatly though. I plan to get another made by him one day. Tom was cool enough to do a few customs for me around that time. The fuzz he made me (Meatgrinder) is on his site as well, but he did a chorus for me as well that wasn't listed (pretty much a bass tuned DOD Ice Box) as well as a tremolo based on the Boss PN-2 with some additional craziness. They were all killer. The phaser though, sounded just like this BM-13... which is why I'm so interested in it!

Sooo, what’s the opinion of folks who have had a bit time with this pedal?

 

@Quatschmacher… Did you get one?

Don’t think they’ve made it into stock yet. Andertons are showing as being available next week Monday.

Weren’t they doing the mother fooger envelope filter?

That had been rumoured for a few years now

I’m sure it’ll come, though will look a bit different from here and be closer in appearance to the phaser:

It’s a big beast; comically large. Can’t realistically get this on my Aclam board

 

Knobs aren’t bolted to the case, which is disappointing, but I suspected might be the case, given the price. Sounds nice though. Seems to be a fair amount of top end roll-off compared to the Black Pearl (another MF-103 clone); the Wombtone has much more high-end clarity.

 

Not sure whether I’ll keep it, mainly due to the knobs and the size.

while I could live with an original moogerfooger if I had one cos they are super cool - that looks a little silly. Of the phasers in your picture it's probably the least appealing . (mostly going visually!)

have a look inside, if theres any scope to re organise the contents, ill give it a go in a custom housing

Did someone say large pedal 🤗

[pantherairsoft]

Do you own a footer to put it next to? It might be the size of the knobs they used, but it looks even wider (but a bit shorter) than the Moog. Making it wider is a bit of a p11s take really because they were obscene to start with. I still can't believe I used to gig with 5 of them (and a Moog MP-201).

That Black Pearl looks tasty though!
