That small clone sounds very shoegazer is it?
Nice and proffesional youtube pedal demo channel. ❤
I personally dont like the boss and the mxr, i feel like they're too subtle. I watched this video to choose a pedal and ill definetly go for the small clone
I got even more confused. Leaning towards boss or Eddy. But no one demos using humbackers????
I picked up an Eddy and was very disappointed with the knob layout. They're so close together you can't get your fingers in to turn them, not sure how this even got final approval.
If you were going to be in a 80s cover band playing Tom Petty, John Cougar and Pat Benatar and scandals tunes which one would you choose?
Donner brand pedals are affordable and just as great as any other brand. I have so many, boss and other brands of the same effects and ive found that Donner is so great and affordable.
3 years later…. Would you recommend the mxr or the eddy? I cannot decide between these 2. I play mostly grunge and 90s alt. Which is better?
MXR is the most natural and respectful to the guitar tone imo based on trying one out just now. You can only appreciate this really by the way it feels and responds to your playing.
Fender – by a landslide…got one by accident and love it
Small clone is far the best choruses but carnt run it stereo for 2 amps.
I just bought the mxr off of reverb, but did my research backwards…didn’t check many videos out until after purchasing & man, that thing gets a ton of hate. Someone, please, make me feel like I didn’t f*** up haha. Hoping when it shows up, I won’t regret it.
Great demos! Just listening to the shootout at the end where the same melody was looped, the MXR at 10:33 immediately made me think of Pink Floyd, so much so that I listened to the whole shootout again, and sure enough, there it was. I'm not a great Floyd fan, but that chorus sound was just "better" than the other pedals. Is anybody able to comment on the noise floor of this pedal? I have a fairly cheap Mooer Ensemble King, and while I do like its sound, at higher levels it introduces a little background noise.
Os cinco são ótimos! Eu achei o Eddy muito bacana mas, acho o Super Chorus espetacular e para mim é o mais legal dos cinco. Eu queria ter um de cada, são todos excelentes.
Small clone, Eddy, Fender Bubbler, MXR
Shit review doesn’t anybody use distortion
can anyone tell me what is this song called? 2:34
Just a little detail, the Boss CH1 was produced in the 90s early models with blue and pink labels have the bucket brigade chip, after 2001 they all were produced digital with a black label.
My favorite, Eddy!!!
I have and love the fender bubbler. But one day, about a year in, it just stopped working. And I've seen it happen to others. Such a shame
A few years ago I bought a NEO CLONE from you . A good pedal but for one thing . The first time you press the foot switch to engage it there is such a bang it frightens people in the vicinity
does anyone know which riff Sam was playing to demo the ehx small clone at 2:17 ? i've tried shazam but didn't yield any results
Mxr analog chorus for the win!
I really miss the chorus my marshall mg100dfx had on it (don't come for me). I wish I had that in a pedal
The EHX ones were noticeably noisier.
This guy is dressed as a mechanic
You could hear the Police with MXR . MXr for me .. but the best advice i can give any one is go to the Guitar shop and try them all yourself before buying any musical equipment.. ( Different kettle of fish all together )
Love the small clone, just don't like how the patch inputs are on the top and not the sides :/ the Boss CH-1 is probably the most durable and I was very surprised by the Fender! All five are great options though. I use a Neo Clone from Electro-Harmonix and it does the job well enough for me, picked it up for 40 quid too!
I think my favourite was the one I'm intending to buy now, the Fender, but like how much they packed into the EHX too. But it's hard not to like the old guys still around the Boss and MXR.
I've been on a mission to try and find what I consider the best sounding pedals to build my perfect pedal board, and chorus is the one I'm having the most trouble finding. So far the best one I've found is the Big Joe B305 Analog Chorus, which is very good. I've also heard the MXR Stereo Chorus M134 in the big yellow box is really good.
EHX makes a lot of great pedals, but to me it seems they just can't get chorus right. Way too much "warbely" tremolo sound. I owned a Nano Clone for a bit and it was unuseable because when you turn it on it would drop the volume by almost half, and on top of that it also made it sound like you were instantly 30 yards away. One of my band members said that when I used that pedal it made it sound like my amp was in the room next to us.
can you power a small clone with a daisy chain?
EH 4600 and MXR hit the spot for me. Boss sounded dry by comparison, Eddy even more so, and the Fender is just too 'wibbly' for my tastes.
The Fender range of pedals are complete sleepers
Using chorus, yet still shaking the neck… what's the deal?
I'd put Small Clone, and Eddie in the same box, being small clone more… "intense". CH-1 and M234 into another box that contains a very tiny "phaser glitter". Fender bubble as the intermediary box… If you're interested, tone city angel wing I think it fits this intermediary box as well 🙂
One pedal i'd like to recommend to people for quite a step below £100 is the Big Joe Stompbox Analog Chorus. Bucket brigade technology, stereo output, american made, it has alot going for it and can be picked up online for around 69-80 pounds mark, worth checking out for something a bit off the radar.
This is the second video where I once again have to choose the Fender (which surprises the hell out of me honestly). The Small Clone is right there though… with MXR right there too. The Boss sounds much improved since my original 1980’s Boss Chorus… much more natural sounding tone. Fender for the win however.
I have used the MXR for years. Reliable and versatile. Love the sound of that Fender
The Eddy is noisy. Too bad though, it sounds good and has versatility (but no stereo).
I've got the mxr its a bit of a tone suck in bypass but sounds amazing in use.
Can you review the "Solar A2.6 guitar?"
I've been using the Behringer UC200 really great value for £20.00
Chorus makes all guitars sound the same.
Chorus is a tone killer, all you can hear is the crappy sound of the chorus pedal.
