Sign in to disble this ad
Guys,
I am after a pedal/s in addition to EBS Multicomp to capture the 80's style music, (Duran Duran, Kajagoogoo...)
Any suggestions for a chorus pedal?
Thanks.
(playing 75RI Jazz bass)

| | | | I second the Ibanez, but you may get some high end roll off when it's not on. So, I'd suggest a bypass pedal. |

| | | | Dimension C go find a vintage boss Dimension C....thats the sound
its a chorus pedal with 4 presets only, in the typical modern boss case
if its Mick Karn you are trying to emulate, then no pedal..double track your lines |

It's more of a New Order / The Cure variety, but it screams "80's" in a good way.
