Dunlop has once again partnered with living legend Edward Van Halen to present a new spin on a classic tone. 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 new MXR EVH 117 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, Speed, Width, and Regeneration settings that he used to get one of the greatest guitar tones of all time. As if that wasn't cool enough, they painted the EVH Flanger with the rocking striped graphics that started a revolution. Get the MXR EVH 117 Flanger and hit the ground running.

5As good as advertised!  Apr 24, 2012 By Greg
I was very happy to get my new flanger today. I plugged it in and it fired up real nice. I was nervous that when I tried it, it might not live up to the hype, but it is awesome. Love it! :)


5IF YOU CAME FOR AN HONEST REVIEW, READ THIS!  Mar 30, 2012 By Joel
First some quick background: I've played for over 20 years. I've played SEVERAL flanger pedals looking for the VH sound. I've owned SEVERAL Digitech processors (my mistake). Each processor had between 4 and 8 flangers 'built in' to it.

NOTHING I'VE EVER PLAYED CAN HOLD A CANDLE TO THE EVH FLANGER! Seriously. Nothing has came close to this flanger.

It's analog and it's great. The beauty of this pedal is, you can dial in your own settings and then simply press the EVH button to acquire the VH flange setting--allowing you to have 'your' setting and Eddie's.

I have read from several sources that Eddie only used ONE setting on his flanger for all VH songs...and I believe that! While the EVH button works for Unchained, it also works for On Fire, Hear About it Later, Mean Street, The Seventh Seal, or really any VH song that a flanger was used.

Ironically, the knob settings on the Amazon pic are EXACTLY the settings for the Van Halen flange, but without pressing the EVH button. --Trust me, I played with this for hours to figure out what the settings actually are. To my surprise, after having figured it out, they are on several pics of this pedal!

Here are the exact VH settings:
Manual: 10:00
Width: 10:00-11:00
Speed: 11:00
Regen: 5:00 (Max)

I've had a DOD flanger (yeah, remember those?), I've tried Boss, and the countless Digitech flangers built in to my processors...

You really need a MXR flanger to replicate that VH flange.

However, this is a 'fan's only' type pedal. The regular MXR flanger (117 I think) will do this too, but without the VH button. This is a fantastic analog flanger that will allow you to create your own flange while being able to instantly switch to a VH flange with the press of a button.

I've never used a better flanger than this, and HIGHLY recommend this pedal if you are looking for a great analog and/or VH flanger.

Hope you found this helpful!

5This pedal is "The Bomb"!  Feb 04, 2012 By Jeffrey D. Bolin
I've been a major Van Halen most of my life. I've owned several MXR pedals and have been happy with some and not so happy with others. This flanger is the best I've ever owned!!! Press the "Unchained" button in and voila! You get instant Unchained flange! I love this pedal!!!
