I lucked into one of these at the music store I work at. A co worker purchased it from someone who had no idea what it was.. This is the best chorus I have used, hands down...Its limited in what it does (just one knob for chorus, one for volume and the other 2 being for a vibrato which is not to my taste) but what it does it does amazingly...it is basically the chorus section from an old jazz chorus if I am not mistaken. As for noise, at the higher ends of the settings it can cause an interesting de-tuning it can also overdrive in an very harsh way if you overload the input with the "hi" setting on the input buffer switch.
Good Points: the most crystal clear chorus I have ever heard
Bad Points: huge, this pedal is amazingly huge. Vibrato may not be to everyone's tastes
Price Paid: US$0.00
