Ibanez Vintage SC10 Super Stereo Chorus 80"s-Blue Guitar Effect Pedal
Vintage Ibanez SC10 Super Stereo Chorus Analog Guitar Effects Pedal MIJ Japan c.1987
One of the hidden gems of Ibanez's highly regarded Power Series, this SC10 Super Stereo Chorus delivers the rich, warm analog modulation that has earned these early Japanese pedals an increasingly loyal following. Manufactured in Japan during the mid-to-late 1980s, the SC10 combines lush analog chorus with true stereo capability and an unusually flexible control set, making it equally at home with guitar, bass, keyboards, and studio applications.
Unlike many chorus pedals of its era, the SC10 features dedicated Speed, Width, and Delay Time controls, allowing everything from subtle thickening to expansive, dimensional stereo textures. The analog bucket brigade design produces a smooth, musical chorus that has aged exceptionally well and continues to be appreciated by players looking for authentic vintage modulation.
This example is an early Made in Japan model and retains its original circuit board, original controls, original footswitch, and original battery door. The internal electronics appear unmodified, with original Toshiba integrated circuits and clean factory wiring throughout.
Cosmetically, the pedal shows honest signs of use consistent with its age, including scattered finish wear and edge chips, but remains completely presentable with no evidence of abuse. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.
Whether you're assembling a vintage Japanese effects collection or simply looking for an outstanding analog chorus that offers something different from the usual Boss offerings, the SC10 remains one of the most underrated pedals of the era.
