Chorus pedal

[eyesore]

Hi guys, i just bought the Fishman battery powered amp for acoustic guitar. I really like the sound of the Chorus sound[not over doing it though]. when I play out , I usually use my Fishman soloamp. It has no effects on it; so now I'm thinking I'd like a chorus pedal to break up my sound with. What is the most popular chorus to use ? never owned one. I know Boss makes a few different ones but ... don't know one from another .thanks !

My BOSS CH-1 Super Chorus has been on my pedalboard for decades.

TC Corona is pretty good to dial in a nice chorus effect. It only took me 4 other chorus pedals to settle on that one.

I'm afraid I'm no help.

i learned to really appreciate chorus many years ago when I bought a Roland JC-120 amp, with true stereo chorus. I always felt the mono version of chorus was a bit underwhelming. My current amp, a Cube EX has a very nice true stereo chorus.

Someone else should pop in shortly with a good pedal recommendation.

I liked the TC Electronics SCF (Stereo Chorus Flanger) the most--classic chorus. I definitely miss mine but just don't play much plugged in now.

I just spent a bunch of time researching this and settled on the L.R. Baggs Align Chorus pedal, designed specifically for acoustic guitars. I love it.

At lower effect levels, it's very similar to the sound of the chorus effects on Fishman's ToneDEQ and Loudbox Artist. So it might be right up your alley. But you can also increase the effect level beyond that if you want, and it does so in a very tasteful way.

One cool design element of the Baggs Align pedals is that is that they all send a completely clean/unaffected signal through to the output, and there is a dial that controls how much of the effect gets blended in. So, for example, you could dial in a pretty intense chorus effect to create a lush/syrupy sound, but then add only a little bit of that effect to the original signal so that the output is still mostly the clean acoustic sound.

Check out the JHS 3 Series Chorus. It's only $99 and sounds very nice.

You're spoilt, the jc120 stereo chorus almost makes the amp worth carrying, but not quite. It doesn't surprise me that anything else is a disappointment but a decent *stereo* chorus (run in actual stereo) can still be very effective.

Mono chorus is vandalism.

No clue what would be considered most popular.

After some (allot) research. I went with the Carl Martin Classic Chorus.

I didn't want the same thing everyone else has.

I think my tone should be unique to me.

I was never so happy to see an amp leave as I was the JC-120. It had heavy duty JBLs in it and I'm pretty sure the model matched the poundage!

I love the Cube EX true stereo chorus, and it's easy to carry!

This is also a valid opinion.

MXR"s M234 is a nice pedal. In addition to the usual rate, depth, and level (mix) controls it has a 2 band eq and both mono and stereo out so you can send the wet and dry signals to different amps/pa.
