Andy Summers actually used a flanger (EHX Electric Mistress) on this track, not a chorus.

[@dr.know-it-all5148]

and a dyna-comp compressor

[@Texturas75]

Yes but it sounds like a chorus

[@antonyfaulkner8649]

Yes folks... a flanger is required, not a chorus, with a fair dollop of resonance/feedback/regen.

[@robertk2007]

Flanger, compression, and echo used on Message

[@scampthelazycat9891]

Chorus ! Duh, Andy used a deluxe electric mistress flanger
