So I'm looking to get a chorus pedal and out of the 3 listed are what I've kinda narrowed it down to. I think all of them sound pretty good but kinda hard deciding, would be using with either my Peavey 6505+ or Mesa Tremoverb head into Marshall 1960A G12T75 & WGS Retro 30's x pattern and drop b and standard tuning guitars.
 
I have the corona and I love it.... although I will say it's a very subtle chorus and it's good as an "always on" pedal. If that's what your looking for I saw go for the Corona.

So true, it is very subtle. It even works fairly well in front of a dirty amp. I have the ce-2 toneprint loaded for an even more subtle chorus. I set the controls when i got it months ago and havent messed with it since.
 
The Zakk Wylde Chorus is fucking awesome, I haven't owned the other so I can't really comment... if you plan on using the pedal with any type of gain the ZW chorus is one of the best on the market to be used with a gain sound... just giving my input!
 
I own corona and MXR. MXR is great love how you can adjust the speed with your foot. Can go from slow churn to all out leslie type thing. But the signal is always really wet. Corona is more refined and you can really dial in exactly what you want. If you want a really saturated chorus go with the MXR. If you want to tune your chorus get the Corona or even the Zakk. Never played one but the ZW but sounds good on clips. The toneprint thing on the TC is great too.
 
Sorry to bump an old thread, stumbled across a couple vids of the Visual Sound Liquid Chorus and it sounded great! Anyone used it, how does it sound with heavy overdrive? Use it with a Peavey 6505+ head or Mesa Tremoverb head?

I've got the older Visual Sound H2O Liquid Chorus & Echo. Had it for years now and still love it. It's a very warm & "swooshy" pedal, so can get a bit noisy with a lot of gain, but that's fine if you want a big swirling atmospheric sound e.g. old Rush songs and the like.

Mind you I tend to use it on a very deep setting. I have both the Width & Delay Time cranked flat stick clockwise, which can make it extremely warbly. I keep it 'steady' by running the Speed extremely low, almost fully counter-clockwise.
