    For me,small clone every day!has the deep round low mids going on! Easy to use,simple😀 whenever someone on UA-cam demos choruses it's mostly clean arpeggios,chords! I never use chorus clean, always overdriven for post punk,goth rock style🤪

    One pedal i'd like to recommend to people for quite a step below £100 is the Big Joe Stompbox Analog Chorus. Bucket brigade technology, stereo output, american made, it has alot going for it and can be picked up online for around 69-80 pounds mark, worth checking out for something a bit off the radar.

    This is the second video where I once again have to choose the Fender (which surprises the hell out of me honestly). The Small Clone is right there though… with MXR right there too. The Boss sounds much improved since my original 1980’s Boss Chorus… much more natural sounding tone. Fender for the win however.

    Just a little detail, the Boss CH1 was produced in the 90s early models with blue and pink labels have the bucket brigade chip, after 2001 they all were produced digital with a black label.

    MXR is the most natural and respectful to the guitar tone imo based on trying one out just now. You can only appreciate this really by the way it feels and responds to your playing.

    I think my favourite was the one I'm intending to buy now, the Fender, but like how much they packed into the EHX too. But it's hard not to like the old guys still around the Boss and MXR.

    Great demos! Just listening to the shootout at the end where the same melody was looped, the MXR at 10:33 immediately made me think of Pink Floyd, so much so that I listened to the whole shootout again, and sure enough, there it was. I'm not a great Floyd fan, but that chorus sound was just "better" than the other pedals. Is anybody able to comment on the noise floor of this pedal? I have a fairly cheap Mooer Ensemble King, and while I do like its sound, at higher levels it introduces a little background noise.

  • @Sandman60077

    I've been on a mission to try and find what I consider the best sounding pedals to build my perfect pedal board, and chorus is the one I'm having the most trouble finding. So far the best one I've found is the Big Joe B305 Analog Chorus, which is very good. I've also heard the MXR Stereo Chorus M134 in the big yellow box is really good.

    Love the small clone, just don't like how the patch inputs are on the top and not the sides :/ the Boss CH-1 is probably the most durable and I was very surprised by the Fender! All five are great options though. I use a Neo Clone from Electro-Harmonix and it does the job well enough for me, picked it up for 40 quid too!

    I'd put Small Clone, and Eddie in the same box, being small clone more... "intense". CH-1 and M234 into another box that contains a very tiny "phaser glitter". Fender bubble as the intermediary box... If you're interested, tone city angel wing I think it fits this intermediary box as well :)

      I think the point of this video is that both are good and not one is recommended over the other in general setting, It just comes down to personal preference. I'd say listen to both in this video, maybe watch a review of both where someone goes a bit more in depth. And if after all that you really can't decide, just go for the one that looks cooler to you. Seriously it's important that you love your pedals and get the urge to pick them up. Sound is number one but if it's that close that you really can't decide it's best to just pick whatever one makes you feel cooler :)

    EHX makes a lot of great pedals, but to me it seems they just can't get chorus right. Way too much "warbely" tremolo sound. I owned a Nano Clone for a bit and it was unuseable because when you turn it on it would drop the volume by almost half, and on top of that it also made it sound like you were instantly 30 yards away. One of my band members said that when I used that pedal it made it sound like my amp was in the room next to us.
