Product Description
Roland DC-50 Chorus for sale. Uncommon and a very early Roland product. These sound great - very "sea sick" and wobbly at the max setting.
This 1970s Roland chorus box obviously shares some DNA with the Boss CE-1, however they are not that similar in terms of the circuit - for example the Boss uses MN3002 chips and this uses MN3001. It's a pretty simple beast - you can't vary the speed of the chorus or hall echo (short delay) so it's really just a case of plugging in and dialling in the intensity of effect required. See below for a useful comparison video between this and the chorus in an RE-301.
