The classic analog Flanger. An array of critically notched and tuned filters gracefully sweep the sound spectrum, creating shimmering, ethereal passages that are truly out of this world. Exclusive Filter Matrix mode disengages the automatic sweep, allowing manual positioning of the filter bank to achieve chime-like metallic tones and other unique effects.

In 1978 there were no smart phones, in fact there were no cell phones! The Walkman was hot, and so was the new Deluxe Electric Mistress Flanger which joined the original Electric Mistress as part of the EHX lineup of effects pedals. Get Back!
Synthesizer designs provide the foundation pad but the Deluxe Electric Mistress delivers shimmering harmonic textures that animate with silky precision.
The undulating textures of the Deluxe Electric Mistress provide the true sweeping element to this Robert Wood homage to the mother of all flangers. The EH 2880 super multi-track looper captures the moment in its portable multitrack recorder mode.
Be sure to catch John Frusciante's comments on the English Muff'n in the April 2009 issue of Vintage Guitar Magazine: "The Electro-Harmonix English Muff'n tube fuzz has some really extreme EQ and a big, thick and meaty sound. I used it on the solo for 'Enough Of Me.' I turn the EQ up, but leave my guitar tone knobs down and use either the middle or neck pickup so the original source sound is really dark and plain. If you blast the tone controls on the effect, you get a really thick, beautiful sound that reminds me of an exaggerated Eric Clapton tone in cream, where you have this really smooth fuzz."
Fourteen year old YouTuber cville57 plays Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" (ed note: Pink Floyd's David Gilmour made heavy use of the Big Muff Pi and Deluxe Electric Mistress). Be sure to catch the switch at 2:00 -- cville57, you rock.
