Ibanez BC10 USATO cod. 47026

The BC10 is an Stereo Bass Chorus introduced by Ibanez for 1986. It was made in Japan.
The BC10 Stereo Bass Chorus maximizes effect potential in this region of the audio spectrum. Delay time control range is longer than usual for a chorus type pedal, giving bassists the ability to “tune” in the effect to the lower register. Standard fare for a chorus unit are speed and width controls; the BC10 has both, in addition to normal and inverted stereo outputs.

Use: To experiment with the BC10, start by setting the speed at 3, width and delay time both about half way up. By increasing the width, more pitch shift is heard. Decrease width for a more subtle effect. Increase speed to hear a vibrato effect. Longer delay times help thicken the sound.
