Yeah, I've been wanting one of these for a while. Can't really justify the cost though. Wish I could.

I have to resurrect this thread to show some love for my latest acquisition.

If a better phaser exists, don't tell me about it because I just want to live happily with this v2 forever. OMG. I love it.

Nah. How is it different? Honestly these two in my picture sound almost the same.

Yeah I mean they're different but they're really similar. I prefer the v2
I'll try out a green one as soon as I can

This phaser stack well with any fuzz, delay, ... Amazing after a ring mod, ...
It's a very usefull tool on my board.
It's pedals like this that make me wish I wasn't in a whelchair
Well...*ahem* anyway
That being said, If I get a phaser, it would probably be one of the INFANEM creations or an EBS D-Phaser (I know it's digital, but it sounds amazing!)

Dude, you should put them RIGHT next to each other!
And I also agree about the soundings of the two... I have a v3 and a compared it to a v4, we're talking 20 years between the two, and they sounded very similar. The v3 had a waaaaaaaaaaaaay more subtle Color Up sound, though... not as much frequency feedback. It did sound a lot more organic, though.
I must say that I ALSO ALSO agree on sexiness of the Small Stone. Really sharp looking pedal. Simple, robust colors and function.

lol I had them right next to each other for some poor people biphase action but now the v4 is first and the v2 is last. The v4 in 5 stage mode running into my Fuzz Factory is really cool

And yeah I love the way they look too <3
hiorgos - I haven't tried the Nano but I've heard it's the same as the big box version

Either way I like the mojo of the folded metal enclosure better

Agreed. The big box hardly takes up any more space because of the top mounted jacks, but hey if you sound good I don't really care what you're using.
If you want a USA version, I'm selling my v4 right now. I'm down to ship internationally if you want it.

Yap I was talking about the looks of the nano.. although some people says the nano sounds more thin, due of course the loss of the big enclosure. I know the sound is more important, but they did change a cool pedal into just a compact mini box.
I got a black sovtek one since 12 years ago, and really thinking I should get myself a USA version too.. (not as easy when you are not located in USA).
It's (the nano) simmilar to a V.3 Small Stone in that it uses LM13600 OTAs (or possibly 137s... either way) and OpAmps so it is a different design to the classic 5 chip (CA3094) & transistor Small Stone. Although they share the same topology of course.

That's interesting. Thanks! The v4 is more similar to the v1 and v2 isn't it?
