very cool. That ross might be a phase 45 clone
the bud phase 90 was almost the 8000th one made, 5th circuit revision. Crazy that they made so many so fast.

I was hoping that it was a 45 clone when I first bought it because of the two chips...but it must be a crappy 45 clone because it sounds just like the 90 :lol: It does not get that vibey depth a 45 has as you turn up the settings. It gets the vibrato warble of a 90 instead.
