MXR Van Halen Flanger Effects Pedal - EVH117

OVERVIEW

Everyone knows that it was the MXR Flanger that powered the timeless Van Halen tunes "Unchained" and "And The Cradle Will Rock." Now you can grab a piece of that world-class tone with the MXR EVH117 Flanger.

This amazing stompbox features the same bucket-brigade technology that provided the sweeping, whooshing magic of the original. But we didn't stop there. We've also added the EVH Switch, which instantly calls up Eddie's "Unchained" sound with the exact same Manual, Width, Speed and Regeneration settings that he used to get one of the greatest guitar tones of all time. If that's not cool enough, we painted the EVH Flanger with the rocking striped graphics that started a revolution.

Get the MXR EVH117 Flanger and hit the ground running.

The EVH Flanger meets Edward Van Halen’s demanding specs and requirements.

Please take a minute to read through this manual so you can get the most out of your EVH Flanger.

“It’s part of my sound and it’s on tons of our stuff. I’ve used it with a guitar, (Unchaine, Hear about it later) electric piano, (And the Cradle will Rock) synths ( Sunday afternoon in the park) It’s simple, powerful, consistent, reliable and a very distinct sound. A true stomp box”.

POWER The EVH Flanger is powered by two 9 volt batteries (accessed through the bottom of the pedal), an 18 volt AC adapter such as the Dunlop ECB004/ECB004EU, or a DC Brick™ power supply.
