    Guys,

    Can anyone tell me (with appropriate justification!) which is the best order in which to connect reverb and chorus pedals. Which one whould come first in the line?

    Thanks!

    Graham!

    you're gonna hate this answer BUT it all depends.

    if you want your guitar (i presume) to sound chorused with a touch of reverb then its chorus pedal first.

    if you want your reverb to have a little modulation on it then its reverb first.

    Thanks for that.

    I am actually using it on a fiddle, but I guess I might go chorus with a little reverb and see how I get on!

    chorus into reverb would keep it a little tighter I reckon.

    That said quite a few reverb patches have chorus in them anyway...

    Chorus followed by reverb would sound more natural than the opposite.

    Thanks all!

    I am sold on the chorus first, then reverb school!
