How To: Modify your Small Clone to sound like the ORIGINAL Vintage Small Clone

In this video we are going to take a Small Clone reissue and modify it to sound like an original vintage Small Clone. This is a fairly simply mod that anyone with a little soldering experience can do to their Small Clone. With prices well over $500 for an original, I highly recommend this mod!
The most notable instances of the original pedal can be heard on Nirvana's "Come As You Are" and the verse as well as solo for "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Although, I'm 99% sure the Small Clone used on the recordings for Nevermind had the Reticon SAD 1024 chip, they are almost impossible to find. This mod should get you pretty much identical to the vintage pedals.
Here's the parts you'll need.
One 6.8K resistor: amzn.to/38LBtwc
One 100pf capacitor (ceramic or silver mica): amzn.to/3GEZC42
One 2.2uF Tantalum capacitor: amzn.to/3x9rQRj
If for any reason you get stuck with this mod or you simply would rather have someone else do it for you, shoot me a DM on instagram. / aaronrash

Please build a Quad Reverb from scratch. I intend to do so in the future, but as far as I can tell, there doesn't appear to be a single Quad Reverb build anywhere.

Front end of the amp is basically a Twin, just a bit more output on the power section (12 watts?) I’d be willing to bet a Twin chassis in a head box & a 4x12 would get you there. And there’s tons of Twin kits available. If you really wanted to go all out you could get a Quad schematic & mod the Twin kit to match.

Really the secret to the quad's sound is the cab and its speakers. The actual amp is basically just a silver face twin. There's several versions of the twin. A early silver face would be the one to get for the quads sound.

Mans turned into 1992 krist now! I like that hair folded hair and the jacket! Also the mods were nice they definitely bought back that vintage small clone tone, I really like that demo song thingy you did! Come as you are was most definitely done on the strat and you should try it with the strat and see how it sounds but it sounds accurate as hell anyways, that come as you are solo is on point too along with feedbacking, and it definitely really pulled off that filter matrixy "i hate myself and want to die" tone really well, Overall Great video.

haha thanks man! I never thought about it but that was totally krist in 92 🤣 The mods definitely helped for sure. I originally thought come as you are was the Strat too and its what I originally tried and it sounded really off. I used the one with the 59N in the bridge and tested all the pickup positions. The mustang really just sounded more like it for me. I tried all my guitars though. Whenever I do a tone video for come as you are I'll put the strat in there so you can see how it sounds. I currently have the original single coil in the mustang right now for the Nevermind stuff 🤘🏼

Great mod. I discovered this years ago searching for that tone. Before EHX reissued the small clone the only chance to get that sound was to set my Electric Mistress to sounds a bit alike. Then i made my own small clone with the MN3007 chip and it was nice for a while until i bought a reissue and modified it. Great videos! since i grew up with Nirvana as well and we are chasing its sound so well. I made a rough in bloom cover using my old ds-1 and this small clone modded for the solo part that is on my youtube channel.

Just finished modding my early 00s reissue with the vintage spec mods. Silver mica 100pf, tantalum 2.2uf, and the 6.8k resistor. I also swapped the red to a green LED and the power input jack from the 1/8" plug to the standard pedal jack. It's funny, I had that small clone since 2006 and never quite figured out why it didn't sound exactly right, the mods 100% nailed it. Its smoother, more organic and subtle in each setting which is great because the reissue is really pronounced and almost too gritty. Thank you very much for your contribution to our music modding community!

Aaron, thanks for the video. I just completed the mod and it sounds great but it wasnt easy. Ive built pedals and im comfortable populating boards and such, the challenge here is to pry those old components free,lots of careful solder sucker work here. Also, for some reason the first tantalum I installed didnt work well, the chorus would go silent as soon as I reached the end of the knob range. very strange. Swapped the tant for another tant from the same lot and now it works perfect. Your suggestion to watch some soldering videos before is key for the non initiated. Thanks again!!!

Along with popping a clear green LED in there I am swapping the junky 1/8" power socket out for a standard guitar pedal DC socket. This is the content type that's needed for pedal mods. I would have really liked an A/B stock vs modded (vintage) but they exist already out there

I love seeing what others do with gear. I wound up building two as I was lucky to have a few Panasonic MN3007's and not enough MN3101's to pair with them (To build BOSS CE-2's). I messed with this circuit so much I had all kinds of crazy variants but the best mod (not really a mod) is to put a actual Panasonic MN3007 in it. I built so many circuits on breadboard using that one xvive IC taken out of this reissue, and compared to a real MN3007 and they are just not the same. Another thing to try is run it at 12 volts (adjust other components where necessary to do that) which results in more width and fullness overall. And although not related to the original, add another jack and op amp stage on a small board for stereo output.

Did the mod, thanks Aaron! What it seems like it does is make the chorus effect more sensitive to gain, which is why it sounds more like Kurt’s sound. The tradeoff is that it definitely made the signal more sensitive to oscillation: It’s easier to get my rig to whistle. Overall still worth it… as the out of the box modern smawl clone sounds nothing like the record!! And FWIW I also couldn’t find silver mica… only ceramic caps.

Hiii. I have the reissue small clone and DS1 and Ds2. Say for eg when I play smells like teens spirit, when I kick in the solo, the solo itself doesn't seem that bright and punchy, instead it gets lost in the whole music. Then I have to use a volume pedal to up the solo part... Unlike Kurt's setting, when he plays the solo you can actually hear how it comes in front and it sounds so powerful. Is that what you mean when you said "sensitive to gain"? Also for your mod which tantalum 2.2 uF voltage you used?

@AaronRash 2 года назад
I really disliked the sound of the stock small clone reissue that I didn't really mess with it much and modded it as soon as I got it. But the filter matrix sound is just a really tight doubled delay, like maybe 50ms that creates the feedback sound. You could do it in the computer by duplicating a track and offsetting the duplicate by 50ms or so.

@seasonaldepression840 3 месяца назад
I saw this posted some where what do you all think? -If you're looking for that Nirvana tone, in addiction to this mod also consider the difference due to the bypass system. The versions without true bypass (all the originals and early reissues) cut the low frequencies, which are retained in those with true bypass (most reissues). This also affects the effect sound which is more pronounced and thicker in the TBs. 100pf cap replacement + NOT true bypass give you an identical copy of the original

The original SAD1024 version blew the modern reissues out of the water. I had a Polyflange too, but had to sell it when funds were quite tight some years ago. I had hoped to collect all three versions of the original circuit, but the Echoflanger was a bit too elusive to get my hands on before I had to let the Polyflange go.

Bigger cap gives more delay and more hiss, but at some point you’ll get seasick tone similar to radio friendly unit shifter intro.

Hey Aaron! Thanks for the video, super helpful! Can the Tantalum be 35V or is 16V the only way to go? (not very experienced)

You should be fine with those, the voltage thing is just how much voltage the part can be exposed to before it goes boom and in pedals you'll usually only have 9v (unless it's one of those pedals that runs at like 25v or something with a tube). The only real problem you'd have with higher power rated parts is size because some are bigger (one time I bought 1 watt resistors instead of quarter watt for something and I literally couldn't fit them in the thing lol)

As I saw in the video, pin 1 of the 1M ccw logarithmic potentiometer is not used. is that so? I know that one of the pins is always discriminated. But does he have a particular reason?

Well, I tried to mod it and its just a buzzing noize, the tantilum capacitor seems to be working, not sure about the other 2, i'll try to fix it later.

I didn't know the new EH small clone had part value changes. Try making a video about getting that nirvana territorial pissing plugged direct into the SSL console overloading harsh sound

Nevermind was recorded on a Neve console at Sound City. Go check out the Sound City doc. Also, he did that video already.

Could the small clone do the filter matrix before you modded it?

Mine made a clicking sound in bypass mode so I returned it. When turned up loud it made it unusable for live situations for me. Bummer

What is the “Filter Matrix” thing?? I know I’ve heard that before but I can’t remember.
@AaronRash

The filter matrix is a setting from the echo flanger used on the in utero album. I go over it a lot in my in utero recreate the tone videos

not sure if i've done mine correctly, it works as if on the lowest setting (7 o clock) up until about 2/3 o clock then suddenly kicks in really dramatically It doesnt sound bad on that setting but doesnt seem to work uniformly throughout the range of the knob. any ideas what ive done wrong?
