What’s better than the verse? The Chorus!.. I’m going to keep coming up with these jokes until you start laughing!
Daniel and Mick revisit a much maligned tone enhancer – the Chorus. Eighties guitar bands were awash with chorus and everyone had some sort of a chorus pedal on their boards, most likely the Boss CE-1, or CE-2. Boss recently released their Waza Craft series and one of those is the CE-2w. Daniel and Mick compare a few.
For good measure they also had a Roland JC-120 on hand!
