SOUND QUALITY

precion Squier Bass Classic Vibe 50's and a pov 'Hartke B20, it is quite addictive serious. To be more precise, it respects the fundamental sound of the shovel: the bass are not hot and that's good, tired of eating the pedal frequency to believe they have nothing else to eat.

What I mean by that is that this pedal creates yet not for the wonderfully low fills his office. Its good vintage, namely hot and thick. The depth can vary on this subject with a way a bit colder. The effect "rotary" is also excellent but remains anecdotal. A good position is deep in, misses two notches before the half and it is the foot.

OVERALL OPINION

Used for one month, bought in mag to 72 euros as prices correct.
I like the simplicity of the beast, and his panel of sounds fairly rich (but not paradoxal. ..). No need to record, then the sheet front to learn how to use it. No default yet.

I wanted a small-clone, nothing else. Then try other things? Oh yes, a chorus can on a multi-purpose canister equally Korg ... Well, not anything terrible, small-clone better, Korg not good ... Understand?

The power supply, 9v to buy more? Bin, yeah. Must buy it, I do not see how this can be a default.

Of course I would do this choice, not a single hesitation.

The Electro-Harmonix Small Clone (EH 4600 Full-Chorus) is a chorus pedal that can be used with any electronic instrument, but that I’ve only used with electronic guitar.<span> </span>This review will be focused on use of this pedal with electric guitar because of this, and is what most users will be using this pedal for. <span> </span>The pedal has standard ¼ inch connections and is powered by the nine volt power supply that comes with it.

UTILIZATION

<p class="MsoNormal">The make up of the Electro-Harmonix Small Clone is about as simple as it gets for a chorus pedal, as it only has a small number of parameters to work with.<span> </span>All you’ve got is a large knob to set the rate, and a switch to choose the level of depth.<span> </span>While this isn’t all that much control, controlling the rate will give you a good variety of different types of tones, and the depth switch adds a lot as well.<span> </span>The up side is that anyone can use it without the help of a manual for sure.


SOUND QUALITY

<p class="MsoNormal">There are very few pedals made by Electro-Harmonix that don’t bring something to the table in my opinion, and the Small Clone is definitely no exception.<span> </span>While I do wish there was a bit more versatility, for such a small pedal I really can’t complain as it packs a lot of power.<span> </span>The chorus tone can be described as extremely thick and regardless of where you set the depth, you’re going to get a wide sound, which is definitely something that I welcome.<span> </span>I’ve used the pedal in the recording studio with a Fender Stratocaster and a ’65 Fender Deluxe Reverb, so I’m definitely getting a clear enough signal to hear what this pedal truly sounds like.

OVERALL OPINION

Unless you need a chorus pedal that will offer a lot of options, and you are on a budget, the Electro-Harmonix Small Clone is as good of a choice as any out there.<span> </span>It is a foot proof pedal to use and is quite reliable.<span> </span>This is the perfect pedal for those who want to add hints of chorus here and there, and don’t necessarily use chorus consistently.<span> </span>Overall, this is one my favorite chorus pedals in terms of bang for your buck…

The Small Clone is a monaural analog chorus pedal with only one knob and one (two-position) switch. Seems rather sturdy, although the (non-true bypass) switch on mine is kind of messed up (it is almost detached from the metal case, still works though). Uses 9V battery or can be plugged using an adequate 3.5 jack AC adapter.

UTILIZATION

I bought it used so there was no manual provided with it. The pdf available on Electro-Harmonix's website seems pretty useless though, unless you've never seen a stompbox in your whole life and/or don't trust your ears to set up that kind of basic pedals.

SOUND QUALITY

Used with a Fender Fat Strat through a SansAmp GT-2 with the Small Clone in between (although most people use it in their amp's effect loop that is after the preamp). In both clean and distorted sounds, this pedal brings both warmth (a REAL LOT of) and clarity to any clean sound, while it will smoothen the harshest distortion. I love the way it sounds, very reminiscent of Nirvana's Nevermind (remember the vintage Small Clone was one of Cobain's favorites before he turned to the Polychorus). With the depth switch drawn in the upper position, the chorus sound is noticeably detuned, which may remind of some 80s-90s experimental rock bands such as Sonic Youth -- thus not very easy to use in most context... With extreme settings of the &quot;rate&quot; knob the effect is a little more on the Leslie side. Contrarily to what I've read here and there I haven't noticed a drop in volume when this pedal is active -- maybe it's different in an effect loop?

OVERALL OPINION

I've used this pedal for approximately 6 months. I love the organic warmth that it brings, although it limits the range of sounds that it can produce. The settings can change the sound rather radically so it is definitely not as much a one-trick-pony as many people say, but you'll definitely need to try it to know if it suits your style (which is rather unlikely if you're looking for a cold, edge-cutting thrash metal sound).
