The EVH 5150 Chorus is based
on a legendary chorus unit that Eddie used to add texture and dimension
to some of his most classic recordings from the early 1980s. It has a
simple three-knob setup—Volume, Tone, and Intensity—with Input and
Output Level pad switches, mono and stereo outputs, and an internal
True/Buffered Bypass switch for modern rig flexibility. Combine this
pedal with the 5150 Overdrive for a huge sound that's thick and chewy.
The MXR EVH 5150 Chorus Pedal captures the sound of that classic
effect with features tailored for modern rigs. A simple 3-knob layout
makes this pedal a breeze to use. Input and Output Level switches
optimize your signal-to-noise performance and achieve unity throughput
gain. You also get switchable true/buffered bypass operation and Mono
and Stereo outputs.
Whether you use it to inject your playing
with texture and dimension or combine it with high-gain tones for a
way-huge sound, the 5150 Chorus is a pedalboard essential. MXR pedals
are an essential part of Eddie's tone From the subtle phase sweeping on
"Atomic Punk" and "Ain't Talking Bout Love" to the seasoned flanging
on "And the Cradle Will Rock..." and "Unchained," MXR pedals are all
over EVH's most famous riffs. So what's Eddie's fascination with MXR?
According to the man himself, "MXR pedals are very solidly built. They
always do what theyâ€re supposed to do, and they never falter." MXR
pedals are a key part of Eddie's tone, and the proof is on his
pedalboard ” it's packed with MXR!
