Has anyone built this Phase 90 and does it really duplicate the script logo model? Thanks

I built it and really like it.

Very easy build, all-inclusive kit, and great sound.

I can't compare it to a script logo, but it's better than the Dunlop reissue I used to have.

I just started my kit and I'm waiting for the Chevy Engine Orange to dry on the box.
It seems real nice, I like the board better than the General Guitar Gadgets style, the parts all look like good quality except for the output jack which will get tossed for a Switchcraft I have in stock anyway.
Is there any benefit to trying different opamps in that circuit?  I put in sockets one all 3 spots marked TL072 on the board.
I don't know much about phase shifters, I had one in the 70's as my only effect and discovered I really like phase shifters again after receiving an Ibanez PT909 in a swap.  The 909 seems to drop some volume so I don't thing I'll use it, although the phasing effect is great, especially with some tweaking of the feedback knob.  The small size and ablility to use and adaptor of the Phase90 probably is gonna beat the Ibanez or any other vintage Phasers out there in usefulness.
Anything else I should know or think about?

Any decent Opamp [Tl082 works] sounds pretty good.
 I think TL072's 'improved' the sound.
 4558's sound different [not swooshier or anything, mainly a different tone]
 I like 4558's, or TL072's  [cool tone]
 or NE5532's [possibly a little more headroom and slightly cleaner],
  but I'd imagine [cause I haven't tried],
 This statement is where I get on the 'asking' boat...even more expensive ones might be desirable...some 'OPAxxx' or rail to rail low noise devices ?
