Danelectro DC-1 Cool Cat Chorus
What is it? Danelectro DC-1 Cool Cat Chorus, the original 18V version. Made in china, 1996. Again? Didn’t i write about this already? Well. I did, but with the later 9V version. This is the first edition that runs on 18V. Are there a lot of differences between these two? Well. Not that much, but…
Digitech XBC Bass Multi Chorus
What is it? Digitech XBC Bass Multi Chorus from X-series. Made in china around late 00’s. Makes seriously wonder i should just sell all the X-series pedals i currently have. Opening the first one back when i did was a severe “meh” situation that offered very little to be interest about. Opening the second one…
Peavey CMC-1 Companded Chorus
What is it? Peavey CMC-1 Companded Chorus. Made in USA around 1987 or 1988. I’m not sure if this series has a name. At least quick searching didn’t yield one. Not that it matters that much. It’s the series Peavey marketed in the mid-80’s and it has various effects in rather cool housing. This one’s…
Boss MZ-2 Digital Metalizer
What is it? Boss MZ-2 Digital Metalizer from Boss Compact series. Made in japan, july 1988. Now, since i’ve lately been looking at these late 80’s analog/digital hybrids, this may be a decent unit to continue with. We are looking at Boss’ take on the distortion plus delay/chorus effects that were widely available back in…
Marshall RG-1 Regenerator
What is it? Marshall RG-1 Regenerator multi-modulation effect. Made in china, possibly around early 00’s Digital chorus/phase/flange multieffect in the small metal series? Apparently yes. And once we open it up, there’s very little doubt of what the design is all about. Yup. It’s exactly the same board as seen in Echohead and Reflector. All…
DigiPlay CH-70 Chorus
What is it? Digiplay CH-70 Stereo Chorus. Made in japan in early 80’s. Saw this unit up for sale with a price tag of small pack of peanuts. What was i to do, but to get it. The switch was acting up, but simply cleaning it up with suitable chemicals did the trick. I didn’t…
Boss CH-1 Super Chorus
What is it? Boss CH-1 Super Chorus. Made in taiwan, november 2001. At one point i woke up to a feeling. I had tons of effect pedals, but zero Boss brand choruses. That felt extremely weird, as these effects in Boss catalog are usually praised pedals. So what was i to do, bet to get…
Boss CE-3 Chorus
What is it? Boss CE-3 Chorus, made in taiwan, august 1988. Boss choruses are all praised, even though the CE-3 has less reputation if compared the obvious classics like CE-1 and CE-2. With less reputation comes a less numbers on the price tag on auction listings. This particular unit is one of the very first…
Nux MF6 Digital Multi FX
What is it? Nux MF6 Digital Multi FX from the Nux First Series. Made in china in 00’s. Whole Nux pedal line has been quite interesting line. Some of the designs are straight rip offs, but while the underlying design may be just that, the rest is well engineered and somewhat original. The “First Series”,…
