There is no denying that the Analog.Man pedals are some of the best gear around - and as an example the King of Tone pedal has an approximate waiting time of about 5 years! from May 16, 2018 to todays date of January 6th 2024.
But the standard chorus pedal is currently just a few weeks today! But don't assume that the standard chorus is 'just another pedal'. Analog.Man himself confirms that the chorus is based on the original design from Electro Harmonix back near the end of the 80's - and Mike at Analog.Man says they have continued to enhance that chorus pedal to this day! So what's not to like.
And what about the pricing? This pedal can currently be bought for a few hundred dollars in the USA, but this pedal is starting to climb in value and I mention the pricing of available units on eBay and places like that where the chorus can actually cost currently a number of times the original cost. I have even seen some models of this chorus up to $1300!
So how good is this standard chorus? Well in this video I show you the pedal inside and out of the unit, discuss the overall quality and that sort of thing, I mention those price things going on, and of course there are audio examples of the chorus itself being demonstrated through a Marshall JVM410HJS Joe Satriani amp.
I have spent considerable time creating this video over ten days of work and two days editing entirely at my own expense:
