    I’m trying to get more info on a Small Clone pedal I’ve had for a while.

    From what I’ve learned on the forum, the date seems to be 1985. The pot number is 1378520 and it has the MN3007 chip. What I can’t find any info on is the pedal face. It’s silver and does not have the black bars on the top and bottom. I can’t seem to find images of another one like it while searching online.

    Any idea why the face would look different?

    Neat! Not seen a paint variant like that.

    EHX did vary their silk screenings from time to time, sometimes with different styles, sometimes different paint colours.

    The interesting part might be the pot date, by ’84 EHX was out of business so unless it’s a replacement part (plausible), this must have been sold by the Broadway Computer Corporation.

    Got a shot of the internals?

    Here are some more photos. Unfortunately, the max photo upload size won’t allow a real close look.

    Thanks (yeah that attachment limit is annoying, you have to host off-site) looks pretty standard, the black plastic DC jacks did come in later in its run.

    I don’t know too much about the Broadway Computer Corporation era, I know they owned the name post ’84 but I still wouldn’t like to comment on that pot being original or replacement.

    But, as I said, it’s just a paint job variant, EHX did that sometimes… perhaps it was literally a case of a shortage of black ink.

    If it was 80s I’d think it should say Mini Chorus, not full chorus….I don’t recall what year that changed

    Other than that, it does look legit

    I think it switched back and forth, there is no set date. Once again, EHX liked to mix things up.
