Optimized for bass guitar, the Electro-Harmonix Bass Clone chorus pedal takes the classic Small Clone chorus and enhances it for your electric bass. The key is its X-over switch, which removes the lowest frequencies from the chorus circuit. That leaves your low fundamental notes full and punchy while glazing them with sweet chorus on top. Use the Bass control to tweak your dry tone without muddying up the chorus — bassists at Music Experience love using this pedal to add dimension without losing punch and definition. If you want to add the sonic texture only chorus can offer but are worried about messing with your core bass tone, you need the Electro-Harmonix Bass Clone chorus pedal.
The Bass Clone chorus pedal’s core circuitry is nearly identical to the legendary Small Clone chorus, but with added features especially for bass. Chorus is a combination of modulated and dry signals. The Bass Clone’s Crossover switch cuts low end from the modulated signal so the pedal delivers a more accurately articulated bottom end with excellent note definition. The Treble control affects the whole signal while the Bass control only affects the dry half. Together with the Crossover switch they provide precise sound shaping that lets you achieve a tight, focused bass guitar sound with a well-defined low end and shimmering chorus on top.
