    Great pedal. It got bumped from my pedalboard by the Retro, but solely due to space considerations. I actually prefer the sound of the 'Cybe.

    love my psilocybe. for the price, versatility and quality of sound it's very hard to beat.... definitely worth purchasing and if you don't like it, there's always someone in the emporium looking to buy one....

    I have a vintage MXR script phase 100 which I love...I was looking for a modern replacement...the psilocybe is great...it's true bypass and sounds great...can be lush or very subtle (which is why I like it), but overall sounds warm, organic, and very transparent. A great phaser, at a great price.

    I very much want one. I just wish they'd make the default color a bit more palatable. I like the older blue ones, but that green makes me sick. I know custom colors are available, but that just seems silly to me for the $ (dig on the lapis custom color, though!).
