    Anyone here ever tried running a small clone or small stone at a higher voltage?

    …without frying it?

    hahaah I know some 9 volt pedals can actually handle 12 volts with cool results…but i guess no one has tried it out maybe if i find cheap used one i’ll try it one day. I don’t wanna risk breaking my shiny new one.

    the small clone sounds cool though when the battery is dying. it gets a sort of really cool fuzz-chorus sound.

    Hi ! Someone made this test ? Or the EHX experts could tell us, an answer ??
    I would like to try on my Small Clone, big box :)
