It feels like chorus as an effect has been enjoying a resurgence recently. Yay or nay? Or did it never go away?

In any case, I made this video to help people compare and contrast every single BOSS chorus ever made... so please watch and hopefully it helps in your tone questing!

Oh god I hope not!!

It never went away for me

Haha I love the two extremes presented within the first two replies.

I've always loved chorus and it's been very present in the music that I listen to... but for some reason never used it much in my actual playing.

I think it requires Justin Timberlake to do a song to bring it back officially. So far he's only done sexy, so I reckon chorus is next.

But in that song he does say "take it to the chorus" which I assume is a reference for the guitarist to take his guitar to the chorus pedal.

Chorus early in the chain (actually Drybell vibe, but let's not get into the difference) is my toan special sauce. Took years to discover.

Chorus makes mind/ear picture of Clapton August era album.

It met with a chorus of disapproval

I'll have to watch Ed's video. There are chorus sounds I like but it always makes me think of a singer accompanied by a solo, clean, over chorused guitar.

For some reason I can't explain, if I need that sort of thing, I'll use flange.
And whatever it is that Strymon's Deco does, in subtle doses it's wonderful.

Hey Ed, I made a comment recently, " If Boss don't make it, you don't need it." And I generally hold this to be true. But Boss doesn't do any form of Klon clone do they?

Not as a standalone pedal, but there's a good Centaur mode that lives inside of the OD-200, funnily enough I was just watching this video that one of our artists in Brazil did:

It's also one of the OD/DS types available in Katana, GT-1000 and GX-100

Can't play Stone Roses songs without a bit of chorus. That's a win for me.

Chorus is essential, John Mayer made it cool again though with Sob Rock.

Can't do Hooky bass without it. Preferably an old noisy one.
