Great bang for the buck!
I was looking for a phaser to complete my pedalboard and pretty much everyone recommended the iconic MXR Phase 90. I was about to buy that until I had the chance to compare it with the Bad Stone. The versatility of the latter is way beyond what the P90 can offer and you can get a ton of tones and effects with EHX's pedal. The Auto/Manual switch works well and the Rate knob provides a wide range of effects. Crank it up and you get some weird sounds you can't have with the Phase 90. So you get all those extra effects and versatility for about half the price compared to the Phase 90. You can't get a better deal than this! As with each EHX pedal, it's really sold and takes a lot of abuse.

Vocoder heaven
Synth nerds: this is the pedal you need if you wanna get that particular 70s vocoder sound out of the VC340. Great for guitar stuff too.
Some settings can cause it to distort unpleasantly, but this might be a combination of a hot signal and overlapping filter bands - I mainly notice this when tweaking it in manual mode.

Bad stone good shifting vibes
Pas facile à maîtriser la bête.
Mais le son est vraiment sale et le phaseur à vraiment ce son original d'époque.
Sur une guitare ça marche vraiment sans surprises. Sur de l'électro aussi !
Ce qui me surprend surtout c'est que le feedback n'a pas l'air de se comporter comme un dry/wet... pas toujours facile d'y aller avec parcimonie.
Le Manual shift, même si je comprends bien l'idée ne m'a jamais vraiment servi ni séduit. Peut-être pour quelqu'un qui fait du re-amping ?
Toujours est-il que pour ce prix vous avez une belle possibilité sonore en plus.
Il n'empêche, pour le prix

Solid purchase
Quite a simple pedal on the surface, but a surprising amount of sounds are available once you mess around with it. Especially with the addition of a manual switch and control knob, which is a welcome bonus for a pedal at this price.
Needless to say, the pedal is built like a tank, as all EHX pedals are. It was delivered in four working days (to the UK), as no complaints in any way.

Great product and service
Really great sounding pedal. Very versatile yet easy to operate.
This is a fantastic sounding phaser pedal that gives an awesome seventies sound that was just what I was looking for.
Three knobs make it very easy to use and dial in the tone you want. The addition of a switch the holds the rate is a killer idea and gives a 'cocked wah' sound.
As ever Thomann delivered without problems and really quickly. Germany to UK in time for Sunday's rehearsal!

great vintage sounding phaser
This is a great sounding phaser. It can go from very subtle to absolutely crazy phasing (almost ring modulation). The sound is warm and rich and it beautifully colors your sound either with clean or distorted sound. Really like it.
The only drawback in my opinion is the manual shift knob. It does nothing when the switch is engaged in auto mode. In manual mode you can lock the pedal to a specific tone (kind of leaving a wah pedal to a specific position), but of course there is no phasing effect. So, it is a bit of useless feature to me. Maybe a volume knob would have been more useful.
Pros: awesome phasing sound, very versatile
Cons: manual mode is limiting the versatility of this amazing phaser
