Yes. It works. What it does is take away the crunchiness and huge jump in volume when you click on the pedal. Stock the phase sounds like your making the sound of a rocket taking off with your mouth or like making a cat hiss noise with more spit back there to crunch the sound up. Thats the only way I can think to describe it. Its likely thats the only real difference between the Phase 90s and the EVH Phaser. Other then the paint job :(

Hey JF!

I've done that mod and it sounds really good. That said, I 'm going to build a clone from www.buildyourownclone.com Judging from the TS808 clone and Rangemaster clone I built, it should be top notch with true bypass to boot. They also have a mod that allows you to adjust the sweep.

I put some vishay resistors in my TS808 and some high end caps just for fun. I don't know if it sounds much different, but it's cool to tweak your own. :)

I think the kit is only $75 and I plan on building one really soon.
