BOSS CE-1 RESTORATION DEMO


Published on Dec 21, 2019 Sunshine Jones

"This morning I restored my Boss CE-1 Chorus pedal. I socketed and replaced all of the IC's - The MN3002 BBD delay chip, and the three op amps - and replaced all of the 220uf electrolytic capacitors on the board and gave it a try.

Wow was I delighted. It sounds so much deeper, wider, warmer, and more dramatic than before. It was scratchy, and rough before without much of the elegance I was hoping to add to my single output analog synthesizers (Jupiter-6, Mono/Poly, etc.).

I'm thrilled at such a dramatic improvement with just a few components.

This is posted for the benefit of my friends on instagram who don't get to hear these lush, swirling effects in stereo there.

Enjoy!"
