These sound very good indeed. This one is in good shape but missing a few backplate screws and has a replacement screw at the front. Tested and working great.The Boss CE-3 Chorus Ensemble (1982–1992) is a vintage analog, bucket-brigade (BBD) pedal, often considered a versatile, slightly brighter alternative to the CE-2 with added stereo capabilities. It features Rate and Depth controls plus a stereo mode switch, delivering classic '80s, watery, shimmering chorus sounds.Key Features and Characteristics:Stereo Operation: Unlike the mono-only CE-2, the CE-3 offers two stereo modes (Wet A/Wet B or Wet A/Dry B), allowing for wide, immersive chorus sounds.Tone: Known for a slightly more "metallic" or "chimey" tone compared to the warmer CE-2, making it excellent for 80s pop/rock tones.Controls: Simple 3-knob layout (Rate, Depth, Mode switch) in a distinctive metallic blue finish.Power: Uses the older ACA power supply (or 9V battery), which may require 12V to operate correctly with modern daisy-chain.Common Uses:Mono: Provides a lush chorus effect. If using Mode II into a single amp, it can create an intense vibrato effect.Stereo: Ideal for splitting the signal into two amps for a rich, stereo ensemble sound. It is frequently found on the used market at a lower price point than the CE-2 or CE-1, often valued for its unique voice rather than a direct copy of its siblingsOverseas buyers contact us with your address for an accurate shipping quote.Items are packed properly and shipped within twenty four hours.
