Carl Martin BassChorus

Chorus effects pedal for electric bass guitar that is similar in function to the Carl Martin’s older Chorus XII, but it is housed in the wider/lower metal housing with ‘chicken-head knobs’ for adjustment. Of course, the quality remains the same, and the housing also encloses the regulated +/-12V power supply for maximum headroom and clarity. Most chorus effects in the marketplace are designed for guitar use and therefore are mid-range heavy, but this unit has been extensively fine-tuned so that the full effect of the chorus is evident as far down as low B. Like its’ predecessor, the pedal is a dual stereo effects pedal with independent sets of speed and depth controls. The ‘Select’ button allows user to use or bypass the effect and the ‘On’ button allows user to choose between the two chorus settings. There is an LED to show the effect is on, and each chorus has its’ own LED indicator which flashes at the speed setting. An added feature with the pedal is found when switching from a slow chorus to a faster chorus, the effect speeds up slowly for that ‘phat’ vintage Leslie effect.
