3 Minute Demo: Chorus Pedals for Country Guitar

Thanks for watching! I thought I would make a quick video showing a handful of different ways that chorus has been used in country music over the years! By no means is this video comprehensive, but I hope it gives you a few ideas that you can incorporate into your own guitar playing toolbox. Please leave a comment with your favorite examples of chorus in country music!

The amplifier I am using in this video is a Vintage Sound "Vintage 15," which is a Princeton style amp. I recorded all of the guitar tones by running the amp into a Two Notes Torpedo Captor X.
