Not your traditional chorus but surprising!
Not your traditional chorus but surprising! Get some very trippy effects from this pedal. Price isn't half bad either.

good af
This is probably the best sounding chorus pedal I've heard for its price! Don't let the plastic casing fool you, I got this on Amazon for 16 bucks and it sounds so good. The knobs feel great and the LED, although bright blue isn't unbearable. Definitely a bargain for only $16
great for the money!
been using this for about 2 years now with no trouble at all! not the best chorus i've used, but it's in the top 5.
