I have an old Visual Sound H2O, and your description is on the money. Great sound, with a lot of warmth.I LOVE my Truetone H20. It’s a warm, lush chorus and an analog-style delay in one pedal. Very well made, lifetime warranty. It doesn’t do the icy Boss style chorus; the sound is much more organic. Lots of variations on tap too.

I think you’ll like it. The effects it generates are very clear and don’t overtake your whole sound like some do. It’s a very musical effect. They run on AC current, so the sound is quite consistent, too. Joe Bonamassa actually leaves one on all the time to a couple of his amps to give his rig a bit more spread, kind of the way Frampton does with his Leslie cabinet. I want to try Analogman’s Chorus pedal also, but every time I listen to the TC, I put my wallet away again!I ended up picking up a TC electronics scf-1 used (only way you can). Do not have it yet, but will be here this week. It is a later model reissue black face one (no purple stripe). I could not justify $350 plus for a true vintage. Most reviews I have read say they all sound the same. Ok some pedal heads swear the late 70’s one sound better, but take that for what it is worth.
