Electro Harmonix Small Stone Reviews

Really nice Phaser

Compated to MXR Phase 90 this one is more gentle, dreamy, has a greater speed range, greater frequency range sweep, so a little bit at odds with the guitar tones, which are midrange-focused, but has great potential with other instruments. It has a nice warmth to it's phasing sound that's often missing on other phaser pedals like the MXR Phase 90. If you're looking for a basic, affordable yet lush phaser this is a great option, defenitely recommended.

Arrived with a flat Battery installed

I expecting the pedal to come with a 9v Battery and surprised when I opened it up, the battery was already installed...and dead. EHX should ship with a battery, but it shouldn't be connected.

Phasetastic

Compact, stylish, simple to use and sounds fantastic

Luscious and washy

Great build quality, nice small form factor, and gives the classic phaser sound that we hear on so many records.

Works well in a signal chain with other pedals, such as a compressor, vibrato and reverb.

Can achieve a range of sounds to suit your requirements, and the colour toggle is useful to tame some of the intensity.

Cool sound, but has a little issue

The pedal is of high quality like all EHX pedals. The sound is amazing and it sounds especially well on stage. But it makes sound quieter and also the click can be heard the moment the pedal is turned on.

Phasing is too loud at its peak

It kind of makes it unusable for me when recording. Sucks because I like the sound.

Sounds great.

As expected, sounds great.

Don't put your mobile phone next to it. Creates some weird noise.

Good phaser pedal

It is a good phaser pedal. I like playing spacey riffs and it gives me all I need. I can combine it with a delay/reverb and also a tremolo without making it sound weird. Overall a great sounding phaser.

I love it!

For me this pedal is amazing . At first test I couldn't stop playing on different settings of the pedal. The color mode is great and this made the difference to made me buy it instead of the MXR Phase 90.

That phaser tone youve heard before

This pedal sounds to my ears almost perfectly identifiable with many great song and artist. In low rate settings its more psychedelic effect and higher rates adds a cool short delay punch. Very nice and iconic pedal, great value for its price!

It's a classic!

Lovely tone, easy to use, built like a tank and looks great on top of it all! Even the included 9V battery is a little surprise!

EHX Small Stone

Sounds amazing, very easy to use. I have compressor so never experienced volume boost with this one. Playing dream pop/psychedelic rock and got everything I need with this one. Classic vintage 70s sound.

great sound for a small price

I was looking for a great pedal, not to expensive. This is the soundquality i needed, so much more, a great sound for a small price. Metal housing, durable and sturdy. You can't go wrong with this pedal effect.

It is ok

Bought for my brother as he wanted a phaser.

When I wanted to write a review, I asked him to tell me a bit about the pedal. "It is ok" was the only answer I got.

I guess it is an ok phaser then.

Easy to Operate

Really simple pedal with great sound. No fiddly buttons or overwhelming settings to mess around with, just a great sound at the flick of a switch.

really nice phaser

A joy to play with. Not to much knobs. the right knobs. Good sound. I was pleasantly surprised by the small stone. really good buy. (I hope he lasts long enough... )

Instant classic!!!

One of the most legendary phasers out there! Easy to use, great sound, two modes. From gentle vibe to crazy trip. It is all there. I used to own vintage Small Stone and there is a downside - effected sound is quieter than uneffected. Luckily it is not the case of these modern ones, volume is the same. Glad they've fixed it. This version is small enough to fit tiny pedalboard, yet it si made out of metal so it will last longer than you will :-) It is also very cheap to obtain.

Really like the sound of this one

It's beautiful! Don't know what more to sat really. Have only used on a bass guitar with amp+cab, but sounds very nice. It's a keeper imo!

Great little phase pedal

This is a lovely, sturdy pedal. It has a great phase sound and has nice 60s style artwork. Im very happy with it.

Pros.. looks and sounds great. Takes up little precious pedalboard space.

Cons.. has annoying rubber feet that make attaching velcro to a pedalboard a bit annoying.

But overall a great phaser

The classic phaser

Back from the dead in an all new package. I like it. Will never leave the chain. Sound is good, however, keep in mind that the upper mode will not work with overdrive/distortion pedals, will work with your amp's overdrive/high gain. The lower mode will work with pedals. If you're looking for a classic phaser, look no further. Price is also a plus.
