"I'm using a [Roland] JC-120. That's because it's got a simplicity about it that I like. It's in stereo — well, it's got a stereo out but no stereo in. But if you mic up both of the speakers, you do get a stereo picture.Stereo is quite important to me. Most of the guitars on Red Barked Tree and other Wire records always are all stereo. I love stereo guitars. I think having one guitar on the left and one guitar on the right mainly sounds stupid. If you want to make a wall of sound, stereo is very good.The stereo chorus you get in the Roland JC-120 is the same kind of stereo chorusing you get in the MXR stereo chorus. This is a Seventies chorus. It's completely different to the kind of Boss pedal chorus, which is kind of an Eighties chorus where you hear the chorusing sound. Seventies chorus is all about making something wide. You don't necessarily hear the chorusing, you just click it on and suddenly it just sounds bigger."
