Has anyone tried this on bass with good results?

I had one for a little bit, it was decent. Nothing amazing, but def. serviceable. The mix knob retained the low end nicely around 50-75%. It's a decent chorus pedal. Is there anything you'd like to know specifically?

How would you compare it to other chorus pedals?

I'm not sure what you mean. On the mix knob: over around 80-85% lost the low end. It's a nice chorus, but it doesn't really stand out as anything special. I ended up keeping (at the time) a boss ce-5. They both sounded the same to me and the filter knob on the boss was a nice feature. Eventually I ended up with a fulltone choralflange, which to me sounds better for various reasons.

The Meistersinger sounded nice, just a tad generic and a bit like everything else, but nothing sounds wrong with it. If there's a guitar center near you, order it, try it out and then decide (thats what I did).

Sorry that was a complete brain fart, I typed pictures instead of pedals.

I have one, and will agree . I handles the low end well and has a very nice sound.
I use mine for a subtle enhancement so it works well for me.

It doesn't get into that big spacey no low end sound that the old DOD stereo chorus.
So if that's more to you liking it probably won't fit your bill.

Can it get a thick and lush sound?

It's not what it's best at.
It sounds more like 80s units, bright and clear.
For thick and lush, I recommend a Rocktron Tsunami.
