The Fender Ultimate Chorus is an electric guitar combo amplifier with a few built in effects including chorus and reverb/delay.<span> </span>The amp has the general look of a Twin Reverb, but has a lot more parameters and sections.<span> </span>I’m not sure what size the speakers are, but I would guess that there are two 12” speakers in here.<span> </span>The amp has two ¼ inch inputs in the front where you plug your instrument into.
UTILIZATION
<p class="MsoNormal">In terms of parameters, the Ultimate Chorus has a lot to work with.<span> </span>The amp is split up into a few different sections, as there is a normal channel, a drive channel, a knob for reverb/delay, and a section for chorus/modulation.<span> </span>Both the normal and drive channels has its own EQ as well as parameters to control the volume/gain and overall tone of the channels.<span> </span>The chorus section has three parameters including for level, type, and rate.<span> </span>Beyond this there isn’t all that much to the amp, and I think that most users will find that it is an easy amp to use.
SOUNDS
<p class="MsoNormal">For the most part, the Fender Ultimate Chorus sounds pretty good.<span> </span>I’ve used the amp for recording with a Fender Strat, as Fender on Fender is usually the way that I go.<span> </span>While it definitely doesn’t match the sound of a tube amp or any of the vintage Fender or reissue amps, it has a good clean tone which is complimented with a number of other types of sounds that are possible.<span> </span>However, the clean sound is probably the best tone that this has to offer, as the drive isn’t my favorite.<span> </span>Since this is called the Ultimate Chorus, it does have a pretty good chorus song to match, and is one that is versatile as well.<span> </span>The reverb will get the job done, but doesn’t offer up much versatility…
OVERALL OPINION
<p class="MsoNormal">If you’re looking for a reasonably priced Fender amp that has a few built in effects, Fender Ultimate Chorus is definitely worth looking into.<span> </span>While it isn’t my favorite Fender amp by a long shot, it is still a Fender and does have the ‘Fender’ sound.<span> </span>It is easy to use, and offers up more versatility than most Fender amps do and most amps in general.<span> </span>I’ll always recommend a vintage or tube Fender amp over an amp like this one, but if you’re most concerned with your budget, this amp is definitely one that it worth checking out…

The Fender Ulimate Chorus is a bit of a departure from the traditional ideas that many guitar players have of Fender amps. This is definitely solid-state, since it's got a few effects, Chorus and Reverb, built in. It has a three-way EQ and a volume, gain, master volume, as well as the aforementioned effects. There's a 1/4" input.
UTILIZATION
I personally have a difficult time getting good sounds out of solid-state amps with my gear anyway, but that's because I am madly in love with tube amps and I forget what I'm dealing with sometimes. One of the benefits of solid state amps is the effects, and if you'd rather leave an effect dialed in then mess with pedals on the floor, I think that's sometimes the good way to go. The manual will explain the amp well, and give you good safety and reliability pointers, but other than that it's mostly useless as this amp is intuitive enough.
SOUNDS
This is a pretty solid-sounding amp (pardon the pun). The solid-state world is a tough one to navigate, and thus a really exceptional amp is hard to come by. I don't know if this amp really leaps out above the rest of the pack, but for solid-state at a reasonable price, it's pretty much a good buy. I don't know if I like the clean sound but there's definitely some distortion on it that's really cool. The Chorus effect, which is the main selling point, is certainly better than the older built-in solid state choruses on many of these amps, but I still don't think it's anything better than what you can find on a really good chorus pedal. The reverb is also just ok, nothing to write home about. Reverb is mostly more important for recording anyway, and in which case an outboard reverb of some type or even a plug-in is preferable.
OVERALL OPINION
I don't know if I'm in love with this amp, but I'm sure some people will be satisfied. People who just like to play and aren't completely anal about their tone will find much to like. Again, it's reasonable for solid-state, and good enough. I would recommend it to amateurs and hobbyists, not pros or serious musicians.
