Closest to chorus pedal perfection you'll ever get

Best chorus pedal I've ever tried. Even with seetings at noon, you can clearly percieve that this pedal was made to get that go-to chorus sound without wacky handle settings. John used it for a reason in BSSM.

Pros: + Built like a tank + Easy to use + It nails the late 80's early 90's chorus sound + Best alternative if you can't afford the legendary CE-1 + Great amount of widening when it's plugged in

Cons: - Not bypass, you can even hear the speed settings when the pedal it's "off" - You need to have careful with the 3.5mm cable power supply it can be break easily - Depending on your instrument you might need to level the volumen after you turn the pedal on

The Best Chorus Ever

O DOD FX65 Stereo Chorus foi produzido na versão inicial de 1985 a 1988 e na segunda versão de 1990 a 1997 - essas versões possuem estéticas diferentes e podem ser reconhecidas facilmente. O FX65 é um chorus analógico esteréo que oferece os controles de velocidade (speed), profundidade (depth) e tempo de delay (tempo de delay). Consta que o circuito do FX65 foi revisado pelo menos quatro vezes ao longo da produção do pedal, mas ele sempre apresenta o chip MN3007 BBD acionado por um chip MN3101 clock generator/driver CMOS; com três op amps (TL022, TL062, tipo 1458, ou tipo 358); e um ou dois trim pots internos dependendo da versão (dois na V1 e um na V2). É indicado o uso de fonte 10v (apesar dele funcionar em fontes de 9v) ou em bateria de 9v. Esse pedal foi descontinuado no final de 1997 e substituído pelo FX65B.

Meu som melhorou 300%

Eu sempre tive a impressão que meu som precisava de cor, após ter o micro chorus da mxr mesmo assim eu não tinha esse brilho na guitarra, adicionei reverb e ainda não tinha que queria, adicionei um UniVibe e a coisa melhorou bastante, mas quando adicionei o Dod Fx65 foi demais, chorus leve não muito chamativo, mas mesmo assim ele transforma o som em um nivel excelente.

affordable nostalgia, solid pedal

I had this insatiable urge for a chorus pedal recently and since I also have an insatiable urge for vintage pedals I started looking at Boss CE-2's. However, since I ALSO have a limited amount of money to spend on a pedal that will be used only occasionally, the CE-2 was ruled out early on in my search.

Still, since I (as a member of the effect pedal universal subconscious) tend to see the CE-2 as the gold standard for analog chorus, so I wasn't done quite yet. After some digging I learned that the early FX65's (and to a greater extend the FX60's) were not only based on the Boss CE-2 but also used the same circuit. Cool. A vintage FX65 goes for about a 3rd of what a CE-2 of the same era goes for. Bingo.

I had owned some DOD pedals in my youth but had grown to think of them as low quality (possibly due to the latter day association with Digitech), what I forgot was that in fact the older ones are built like tanks and (as is the case with the FX65) often use the same guts as the pricer corresponding Boss pedals.

The footswitch was and always will be my main gripe with DOD pedals, it's just too subtle of a feel; to go from literally stomping on my other pedals with Boss-style switches or the "button" style switches that both make the DOD switch feel like I'm stamping on flower petals, is kind of jarring. Also, the switch keeps such a low profile that it's just hard to hit it accurately without also stepping on the knobs of the pedal below it on the board.

It's great as far as sound goes, the simplicity of the controls is nice, you get some really good tonal options with the "delay time" control which can add that icey almost flanger-ish timbre to the sound. It's maybe not as "warm" as some other analog choruses, but only maybe. It does alright by me.

Funky little pedal, used by John Frusciante on one of my favourite albums of all time - BSSM. It's quite subtle and not as defined as, for example, EHX Small Clone, but it does its' job very well - adds that sweet overtones to your playing. Definitely a keeper. EDIT: It's also f*cking great for these dreamy, lo-fi Mac DeMarco tones.

Only you.

This is the only chorus I have ever owned so I don't have anything to compare it to. It does a great job so I never had to look for another one. I have messed with the buttons over the years and used several different guitars and amps and various pedalboard configurations and it's all good. A great hard working well-built pedal.

Vintage Stereo Chorus

Vintage sound with acceptable noise floor. Uses pin style power instead of usual barrel type. 9v battery. Solid construction.

solid chorus pedal

its a solid unbreakable reliable chorus pedal

Dod Chorus

Not a huge fan of chorus pedals...I think i got this in a trade.
