I love my mxe chorus pedal . Needed one for my iconic sense the green channel is very dry . Super refreshing to have a chorus back in my pallet of tonal options . I prefer it at both knobs at 11 o'clock. Very cool pedal

Perfect addition to my board, the stereo option gives me that fat wide sound I wanted. Dealing with Cory at Sweetwater was a breeze, very helpful

Only had this for a few days and it sounds terrific! Have not found it's full potential yet, definitely another great EVH product.

There's a lot of reviews with this pedal on a weird sound Eddie did his chorus pedal correct all of you just don't have an ear the reason his pedal does that weird sound on a sustained note due to lack of a sustained pickup the Frankenstein has one in it there's another cure to the lack of sustained power is an EQ before the pedal try it on a low setting it will sustain the note so the pedal does not make a note that's no longer there it makes that sound because it's trying to push when there's nothing left to push so it buzzes
"no smoking" if you need something other then life to make music you might as well just buy a fuzz pedal and blast those notes full of manure
like back to the future " I hate manure"
classic BIFF

I've had this effect for a week and normally I wait a little longer to write a review but in this case no need. I've used a lot of different choruses over the years and was never totally sold on any of them but this is my holy grail to date. Instead of being redundant, read all of the other 5 star reviews and that what you have in this pedal.

I like this Chorus very much it has a set rate a somewhat slower rate well suited to both clean and distortion tone settings. The tone is clean and clear and the pedal is obviously well made with a battery hatch easily opened to change batteries without taking bottom plate off!

This pedal is most excellent.I have used several chorus pedals over the years and this is the Holy Grail. It is more than I expected,and just excites me to use it. Amazing pedal. JB Hood

I got this pedal after hearing it on YouTube video it sounded great and it does but there is a noise that someone else mentioned when single notes are played. My next step is to go into a retailer to see if they're all the same or if it's just mine to try to return. Not what I expected.

Great pedal if you want that mojo tone sauce Clapton had in the 80's. I just recently learned that it was chorusing - he had an elaborate rig. The trick is a slower rate, and this pedal is ALL about that sound. It gives you tons of control over that sweet spot, and has pro features like input/output adjustment switches and a cool signal clipping light that helps you find the right levels for for instruments signal path. This will get you very close to that elusive Clapton sound, and of course you can nail Eddie's tones as well. Not a pedal for weird noises (thank God!). I love it!

I'm not a pedal guy. I use a little reverb, delay and a Friedman BE deluxe for distortion and that's about it (the Friedman is the distortion for people that want the perfect Marshall sound). I'v never really been a fan of chorus and I've tried many. I just couldn't bond with any of them until this one.

What I like is that you can set it so it's subtle, just giving you a "wider" sound, without taking over the tone. With the intensity set at 10 o'clock it gives the sound just a little something but it's not overbearing. It' s like that thing where you may not notice it's on, but will miss it if you turn it off.

The way I'd describe it is that if you recorded your sound and added a hint of detune in post. It can do a very strong chorus if you crank the intensity up, but that's not what I got it for. It really is amazing but, then again, Eddie had great taste and a great ear. This is going to be a permanent addition to my pedalboard.

If you are looking for a pedal to fatten and add to your sound this is the pedal for you!
I usually turn it on and have the effect on low and it sounds like a soft doubler but it adds so much to the overall sound of what you are playing.

The best Chorus pedal available today . Very easy to use great sounds and very durable for traveling. Do yourself a favor and purchase one !!!!!

The chorus is beautiful and lush. When run stereo, it's absolutely fantastic. As Pete Thorn noted, leave it on in stereo with the depth turned all the way down and you have the EVH detune effect. Great in mono. Better x3 in stereo. My personal favorite chorus pedal I've tried.

Mono this is a good chorus. Run it stereo and it's fantastic. All the way down it gives you the Diver Down 1984 doubling effect. Turn it up and you get a very nice lush deep chorus. My favorite chorus pedal. Check out Pete Thorn's review on YouTube. It's spot on.

I really like how you can make it a very subtle effect mono or stereo to just add like a dutuneish thing to your tone. Or pronounce the modulation a bit if need be.

I played this EVH Chorus and decided to purchase one through Sweetwater. I don't shop anywhere else for gear. When I received the pedal and hooked it up it had issues. The rate and tone knob had zero effect. The pedal was extremely noisy and clipped the signal even below unity gain. Tried low output singlecoil pickups, PAF style to high gain Wolfgang pickups. Still clipped the signal in every position of the input and output toggle position. I thought since the pedal had been in cold temps for a while maybe it needed to acclimate and reach a warmer temperature.
I left the unit alone for a few hours and went back to try again. Bingo! The unit works fine now and sounded like what I had played earlier in the week locally.
This is Ed's tone in a convenient package. Close to his wet dry wet setup tones with the harmonized. It's a must for his signature tones.
If the unit has been exposed to cold temps let it acclimate and then give a go.
I want to thank my longtime sales rep Brian Looney for always hooking me up and always being class act. This is the reason I always choose Sweetwater for ALL my gear needs. 20+ year customer. Thanks!

I'm NOT a huge pedal guy but a home musician playing rock guitar since 1982. This is one helluva special weapon in my opinion. Paired with a real tube Marshall DSL 40 combo, when you engage the pedal it's like this vibrant crisp electric burst of sonic fun!!! Have to hear it to believe it. Some may not know how to use it well to their advantage. Seems to give you that 1991 "Roundabout" tone also from the Carnal Knowledge album. Smaller than it looks too! Not your average chorus pedal at all. Check it out. Thanks to Chris Kress my sales engineer and his masterful wizardry ways!!! THANK YOU Sweetwater

I have thoroughly enjoyed this pedal and feel that it gives you so much sound for your dollar! I have been drooling over how beautiful the clean channel is with this pedal in use! OMG it is like the most luscious sound I have ever heard!! The distortion channel is so awesome also with this pedal in use and I love being able to get the earlier EVH tone! Besides this, it is amazing how this pedal opens a new door on my playing and it is so fun exploring everything else besides only EVH! This pedal and my tube screamer have made the biggest impact on my sound and I feel like I will always have this in my pedal chain! Nate is my salesperson and has always been so cool to order stuff from!

The wonderful church I pastor recently purchased the EVH chorus pedal for pastor"s appreciation month and I could not be more satisfied. I have a Boss super chorus and it"s a good pedal but the EVH from MXR is in a class of its own. It sounds great for contemporary Christian music clean and also great with distortion. Thanks again to Nick Hammer and the Sweetwater team for helping get what I needed. Sweetwater is the best in the business hands down. God bless you guys

Amazing, lush, spatial, a must have modulated effect on your pedalboard. Except...when the led flickers and extinguishes, a slight fizzy crackle sound is emitted. I returned the pedal thinking it was a defective unit, but the second one did the exact same thing. I was shocked. I think there is a design flaw that needs to be worked out. I"m not seeing anyone else describing this on the net, but I anticipate I will. I noticed the issue most when I allowed a note to ring out, and as it decayed, the led would flicker (I assume due to signal becomming weaker as the note faded) and as it did this, the noise began. The pedal was isolated, and I used two different wall watt type power supplies. Super bummed it didn"t work out...

Great I love it

I have always loved Chorus. The problem is, I find a great one for clean, and it sounds horrible with OD. I was excited to see EVH working on this with MXR. The classic "Diver Down" era sound is one of my favorites. I can say that Eddie VH never fails to come through! This pedal is great clean or with OD, and great either in front of your amp or in the loop. Just amazing. The controls are a bit unusual for a chorus, but they allow you to dial in your sound perfectly, and balance it for effects loop or direct in. Even running in stereo with the intensity "Off" produces a great sound. Home Run for MXR!

First sweetwater was great,got it fast the packing was nice and neat.now on to the pedal,first nice build it is a light pedal,next the plug in.It is different lots of variables just on the pedal ,team that up with a midsized board 10 pedals running two 5150 amps and it will take some time to get the placement right,2 days for me,i like it in the loops, MXR and EVH did a great job on pinning the Diver Down /OU812 sound.It's a must have if your looking that sound no other pedal will pull it off like this one.

Love this pedal,great EVH tone!

This is a great chorus pedal with its own flavor. Its almost a cross between a double, chorus/phaser. Great for lead and rhythm. It can be a bit bassy so you may have to EQ your amp or adjust the tone and input/output levels a bit. I got it right where I want it and its left on most of the time now. I like a subtle chorus that sounds like the guitars are doubled and this does that very well.

I used a Boss 'Super Chorus' previous to this, and as good as it was, it lacked some color and didn't lend itself to high gain sounds from my amp.
The EVH 5150 Chorus adds color to the tone and indeed, is good for a high gain sound. (Think "Pretty Woman" by Van Halen).
It took a while to dial in with the input/output level switches left and righ, I found the best results with the left switch set to the top (-20db) and the right switch set in the middle (-35db), playing with these switches can alter the volume and tone.
The knobs from left to right, I had the Intensity set at 10,oc'lock, the Tone set at 11,oclock and the Volume at 1,oclock.
Overall, I like it a lot. It works with any normal adapter. It didn't come with any instructions or explanation of the Chorus knob settings or switches, but it's not like I really needed them. I tried it using a clean sound too, and it performs flawlessly as one would expect.
It's a nice upgraded Chorus on my pedal board now.
