Hi, I really want the Small Stone. But which one ?
1. – My chain is split in two (one with FuzzFactory to the normal channel of AC30, the other with a booster in crunchy Top boost channel) and I would like to use it on both channels + I like it before dirt pedals anyway – so it would be handy to have a true bypass Small Stone because my FuzzFactory needs true bypass effects in front of it.
2. I like the looks of the classic Small Stones and I would rather have vintage or reissue one simply because it’s cool and to my ear it’s even better sounding.

So please help me out – are the pre-nano versions worth the huge problems I’d have with them (different effect configuration would mean more tap dancing), volume drop, I guess even higher risk of failure due to it’s age etc…I love the old design and I’d rather buy cool looking and better sounding vintage stuff but I really can’t compare all of them without buying all of them…And nano seems so convenient having TB and no volume drop (size doesn’t bother me)…

Thanks, you guys are a huge help for me…

PS: I’ve read somewhere that some newer big box Stones have a True bypass…Can someone please verify this? THX a lot for answers…
