The original 1980’s PT-9 Phaser was a great pedal, but a little known fact is that Maxon also offered a different version of that model that was only sold in Japan under the Maxon brand – dubbed the PT-9 Pro, this silver-boxed rarity featured optical circuitry for a lush, drippy, 3D phasing effect similar to vintage units such as the Mu-Tron Phaser II and the Shin-Ei Uni-Vibe.

The PT-9 Pro+ Phaser takes this ultra-rare version of the PT-9 and adds a voltage-doubling IC to offer massive headroom and an improved frequency response, yielding fat, full-bodied phasing with incredible clarity and transparency.
