TC Electronic 3rd Dimension Chorus Pedal – Used
Description
The TC Electronic 3rd Dimension Chorus is a distinctive analogue chorus pedal designed to deliver spacious, polished modulation without the usual array of rate and depth controls. Its four-button interface provides quick access to a range of carefully voiced chorus sounds inspired by classic studio and pedal tones of the 1980s.
This used example is in Very Good condition and offers an uncomplicated way to add width, shimmer and depth to clean or driven guitar tones.
What Makes the TC Electronic 3rd Dimension Chorus Special?
Rather than conventional rotary controls, the 3rd Dimension uses four numbered mode buttons that can be selected individually or combined to produce 16 different chorus combinations. Moving through the settings increases the intensity and depth of the effect, making it easy to move from subtle widening to rich, immersive modulation.
At its heart is an all-analogue BBD circuit, delivering the smooth character associated with classic analogue chorus designs. True bypass keeps your unaffected signal path clean when the effect is disengaged, while the sturdy metal enclosure makes it well suited to regular pedalboard use.
Who Is It For?
The 3rd Dimension Chorus is ideal for guitarists who want classic analogue chorus without spending time adjusting multiple controls. It works particularly well for clean rhythm parts, arpeggios, funk, atmospheric guitar sounds and vintage-inspired tones, while its simple interface also makes it a strong choice for live players who need repeatable sounds quickly.
