Looks like the deoxit worked a treat, quiet as a mouse now

I like the detune on a Whammy pedal for chorus.

Keep wanting to try a waza dimension chorus, or maybe the smaller detune pedal so I can have that sound and do annoying whammy things lol.

Mine is DOD FX65. I also like detune on Pitch Fork.

Oh I forgot about the DOD FX67, the Stereo Turbo Chorus. You can see a YouTube video here. It is 2 BBD choruses in 1 box, which sounds wonderful in stereo.

OK - the DC3 Waza in Stereo is my official favorite! But given thew PITA to do stereo...I'm probably not gonna do that much unless recording. So much so, in a different class from typical pedals

That said...my favorite, in order:

Digitech CHorus Factory - TC SCF+ mode
My Washburn Stereo Chorus for Analog
Visual Sound H2O V2 Cherous on Lush setting
Boss SC2 - why not?
Mooer Ensemble King
Honorable Mention: Ibanez CF7 Chorus/Flanger in Chorus-Wacked mode

The JC-120 is a stereo boss CE-1 circuit isn't it? I remember really liking the sound of it as well, and I'm not much of a chorus guy.

Yep, it is the CE-1 circuit, which surprises me. They nailed the chorus and swung and missed on the distortion. They could have put the DS1 or Super Overdrive in the amp, but went with a strange distortion circuit. By design, the amp has no warmth; the "distortion" is to bring the warmth back in, not to be a traditional distortion. It is usable with certain styles of music, like classic rock. The great thing is the JC 120 is a fantastic pedal platform; every dirt stomp I have used with it performs well.

I remember in the 80s almost every rehearsal room here had a roland JC40 or a JC60 (JC120 was too expensive maybe) , a 30W marshall master lead combo or a yamaha G50, you could not find anything else. And almost nobody wanted to use the roland, too much ice pick cutting....
