The Aria ACH-1 Stereo Chorus is a vintage Japanese-made analog chorus pedal known for its warm modulation and spacious stereo spread. Produced during the golden era of MIJ effects, this unit delivers lush, shimmering textures ideal for clean passages, arpeggios, and classic 80s modulation tones. This particular example, with serial number 080757, comes in mint condition and includes the original box, making it especially desirable for collectors and players seeking authentic vintage character.
The pedal features simple, intuitive controls: Rate adjusts the modulation speed from slow, dreamy sweeps to faster, more pulsating movement, while Depth determines the intensity of the chorus effect. Its stereo outputs allow you to run dual amplifiers or stereo rigs for an expansive, dimensional soundstage rarely found in pedals of its era.
Aria pedals from this period are celebrated for their reliability, solid construction, and uniquely musical analog circuitry. The ACH-1 stands out as one of the brand’s most atmospheric and expressive modulation units.
