Chorus

Features:
Sound Quality:
My set up is Fender 1989 HM US Strat --> TS9 --> Fender chorus pedal --> Fender Blues Jr., I use only Spectraflex cables, for accurate signal transfer.  I am familiar with all the classic chorus pedal (CE-1, Small Stone, TC, ect..) and I can say with confidence that this pedal has the largest sweep of width and rate I’ve ever heard.  You can generate a huge wiggly sound when all the knobs are turned to 10.  Consequently the knobs are very sensitive and dialing in the exact sound you want may take some time.  There is no delay time knob on this pedal, which an important feature for me have on a chorus.  (The Ibanez SC10 Super Stereo Chorus has a great delay time knob.)  This effect does not change the signal strength or generate noise.
Reliability/Durability:
The pedal is built well, made in Japan, almost a rugged as a boss.    The case is steel, but the knobs and the switch are high quality plastic.  It is a very funny lavender color.
Ease of Use:
Easy to use, there are four knobs: width, rate, depth, and manual.  The depth and manual knobs work together to mix the clean signal with the processed signal.  The width and rate knobs are standard knobs found on all chorus pedals.  There is an LED that lights to indicate power.  Stereo outputs are provided.  The unit is powered by a 9—volt or standard AC adaptor.
Customer Support:
Fender dropped out of the pedal biz a long time ago.
Overall Rating:
Despite its huge sweep in width and rate it is just an okay pedal.  The enormous wiggle it can generate has very limited musical use.  For some reason I can not dial in a rotating speaker sound on this pedal.  If it had a delay time knob I would use the pedal in my set up, but for now I sticking with my Ibanez SC10.
