collapse expand iconDescription

The GAMMA Eros Clean Chorus can wrap your guitar sound in a warm caress of modulated texture, or a more impassioned shimmer and swirl of desire run amok. Whether you want to emulate the chime of a 12-string, add a lush character to single-note lines or voice chords with a lovesick quiver, Eros has the power to enhance and expand your tone. Eros is one of six stompboxes in our brand-new and exclusive GAMMA guitar effects pedals line—which also includes the Altas Boosted Overdrive, Bacchus Dynamic Driver, Cumulus 3-Way Reverb, Hades Metal Distortion and Narcissus Warm Delay. We’re Guitar Center, and we know guitar players, so we populated the GAMMA line with six effects that are absolutely essential for gigging. In fact, you can construct a versatile and professional pedalboard with the sextet of GAMMA pedals alone.

All pedals in the GAMMA guitar effects series feature stunning metal-flake finishes, gig-tough chassis and knobs, scrupulously curated circuitry and buffered bypass (for consistent tone and signal output), as well as a compact size that won’t devour real estate on your pedalboard. Each GAMMA pedal can be run from a 9-volt battery or power supply (battery and DC adapter not included). In addition, we are extremely aware that the last thing players want is for their gear to crumble under pressure, so the GAMMA line was designed to defy the rigors of constant use and to sound sensational every time you plug in to play.

Eros Clean Chorus Controls and Features

Eros offers the typical Depth and Speed controls, along with a Level knob that lets you blend the amount of the chorus effect with your fundamental, dry guitar sound. No matter how wild you go with the depth and speed of the chorus, you can adjust its level for subtle, almost psychoacoustic effects, or full-on modulated madness. GAMMA pedals are also designed to endure the hardships of real-world use. Electrical footswitching protects against audible noise and other glitching that can sometimes occur when a mechanical switch begins to wear out. Buffered bypass ensures a strong and consistent signal is sent to the other pedals in your chain, so there shouldn’t be any volume dips or other anomalies when you swap or add effects on the fly. The heavy-duty metal chassis and knobs are durable enough to withstand being kicked off stages, tossed into gig bags and any other abuses that can occur during live gigs, studio sessions and gear transport.

How Does the Eros Clean Chorus Sound?

Offering a classic shimmer that thickens up your tone, Eros can also bring on vibrato-like warble at its highest speed and depth settings. Although it’s called a "Clean Chorus," Eros works brilliantly at enhancing overdriven, distorted and over-saturated sounds with textures that help your playing stand out in a dense mix, or beckon listener’s ears to focus on the unique, mesmerizing tone that frames your solos, riffs or rhythm parts.

Power User Tips for Chorus Pedals

As a great chorus effect is so enthralling, you can crank it up for maximum seduction, or reduce the wet/dry blend using Eros’ Level knob to send off a sly wink. The Eros Clean Chorus also offers a great way to add texture and interest to already recorded guitar tracks. Not thrilled with a chord progression that simply sounds too ordinary? Adding chorused single-note lines that follow the chord changes can really animate the part. When playing live, you can use Eros to punch up musical elements, choosing your moments to add little climaxes and crescendos. For example, only hit the chorus effect during the chorus, use it to really kick off an intro riff or save it for a surprising texture on a bridge.

Dimensional Chorus

The GAMMA Eros Clean Chorus is a sonic seducer, beguiling your tone with a sumptuous, rich and glistening character that’s so strong you may never want to turn the pedal off. While the word "gamma" denotes the third letter of the Greek alphabet, it also stands for three pertinent reasons why GAMMA guitar effects pedals deliver extraordinary tone, tough-as-a-tank manufacturing and fantastic value: They are crafted by people who love guitar, for everyone who plays guitar and they are only available at Guitar Center.

Great tone, low noise and incredible bang for the buck

Normally I would not bother to mention the box that a pedal comes in, but this one deserves a shout out. I've had issues with products being damaged in shipping lately, but not here. Aside from the attractive graphics on the outer sleeve, the inner box was solidly built with a locking flap that makes it perfect for future storage. And beyond that, the pedal itself was packed in a non-scratch bag with a die cut foam block in place to protect the knobs and switch. Very impressive for a product in the price range. The sound? Happily living up to the GAMMA name, this pedal sounds fantastic. I've always been a fan of modulation pedals and love my phasers, flangers and rotary pedals. But until now I haven't been able to find a chorus pedal that had any real swirl or character. The EROS has vibe in spades. Aside from the obvious Speed control, I was most impressed by how the Depth and Level controls interact. On their own, these controls make perfect sense: Depth adjusts the amplitude of the Chorus wave while Level adjusts the wet/dry mix. In practice, however, this enabled me to easily dial in everything from an over-the-top rhythmic warble to a slow, greasy wash of color. The sound is so wonderfully swampy that it almost slides into phaser territory in a very cool way. And to top it all off, this baby is whisper quiet. My last chorus box was a a mid 80 model that sounded like a motel air conditioner, so this was a very pleasing experience. Overall, I'm more than impressed. The pedal is built like a tank, sounds great and is super flexible. Very cool. My only (very small) gripe is that a phillips screwdriver is required to remove the bottom panel for battery replacement. This is surely no big deal as I always keep a screwdriver in my gig kit, but I do prefer the "no-tools" solutions. That all being said, this one is a winner and I'll absolutely be adding more GAMMA pedals to my rig

I wouldn't personally buy this product again

I used this product playing with an electric guitar playing songs with friends but prefer the amplifier but this is definitely amazing! I do love how same and compact the echo is and it does help the electric guitar proform magical sound. The color is beautiful and is really light weight.

    My wife received this pedal and gave it to me. I use a pedal regularly and was a bit nervous when she mentioned she wanted me to try this one. Boy was I surprised! The sound was great and comparable to some of my expensive ones. While I know this isn't an expensive pedal it definitely produces a sound of a more expensive one.

    I like it, Its very cute and compact. I have been looking for one of these for a while and this one just sort of fell into my lap. I had a little bit of trouble figuring it out at first but once i went to youtube i learned how to plug everything in and stuff. For pricepoint, this is a pretty good gift!

  • Amazing Value for what you pay for!!

    Great tone and overall great chorus; comparing it to more expensive pedals it is extremely comparable. Great Pedal for those that are starting out and do not want to spend big money just yet. Would highly recommend.
