Just got a rare Zoom Choir 5050 chorus pedal today. Found it in a pawn shop for $50 and discovered after getting home the last ebay listing sold for $150.

I'm so stoked right now because I'd been searching for this pedal for the last 15 years. They didn't make them very long as Zoom had decided to shift it's focus to multi-effects one or 2 years after producing the Zoom Choir and Zoom Driver pedals.

I can't wait to put my Strat through this thing and also to see if it plays well with the other pedals on my board.

Those are nice pedals! The chorus in the multi-effects units isn't near as versatile and doesn't sound near as nice as the stand-alone stompbox.

Rawk on!

I had considered in the past getting one of their multi-effects just for the chorus hoping it would be modeled after this one; but I'm so glad I held out until I stumbed across this one.

I think the main reason I held out is that so much of their stuff they produced after discontinuing these pedals is all made of plastic and felt cheap.

I just can't believe I got such a good deal on it. The pawn shop obviously didn't do their research before putting this thing out on the sales floor as I paid only 1/3 of the price I've recently seen them going for on ebay or kijiji. Similarly, the guy that sold it to them had no idea what he had or he wouldn't have let it go for so cheap... unless it was a pawn that never got picked up.
