Chorus's and their character
« on: October 06, 2006, 11:03:17 PM »
Ok I have two chorus pedals
Pro Tone Lithium - essentially a EH Small Clone with a stutter valve attached - loads of mojo - great sound - love it, can do John Squire and Kurt Cobain easy
Danelecto mini pedal - suprisingly good - very artificial - in a good way.

I love chorus - what reviews of other chorii out there?

I have a Loco Box stereo chorus, which I think was marketed by Aria.  I haven't plugged it in since about 1983, no idea if it was supposed to be any good or not.  Must dig it out and see if it still works!

My E-H Clone Theory pedal has served me well for many years.  It doesn't really have the sweep range that more modern chorus pedals do, but it's a really rich tone.  I also quite like the basic old Boss CE-2 or CE-3 pedals, and use both frequently live.  When the funds are available, though, my next step up will be a Fulltone Choralflange.

Ibanez CS9 Reissue (or original) is the best chorus sound i have played/heard. It sounds great and is definatley worth the money payed for it. It's quality for those 80's kind of chorus sounds.

I have an original CS9. I don't use chorus very often but the CS9 sounds great. Very archetypical chorus sound.
