Boss CE-2 Chorus

Boss CE-2 Chorus

  1. Name: Adam

  2. Band: The One Inch Wonders/The Wonderfulls

  3. Price Paid: $18

  4. Performance

  5. This is a nice, solid pedal. I got it used off of eBay, and I love it. It is reasonably quiet, with a full, lush sound. Two knobs — nice and easy (rate and depth!)

  6. Performance Rating: 9

  7. Sound Quality

  8. This effect is pretty clean. With both knobs cranked, it TOTALLY nails the intro tone in “Come As You Are” by Nirvana (even though I think Kurt used an EHX Small Clone). With more subtle settings, it adds depth and texture to compact or picked-out chords. Barre chords are not its strength, IMOHO.

  9. Sound Quality Rating: 8

  10. Construction

  11. I bought it used, but it is a beast. Tough to the max. All I had to do was tighten the screws holding the knobs on and plug it into my pedalboard, and presto! Insta-chorus!

  2. Band: Brainhorn

  3. Price Paid: $120 second hand (Australian)

  4. Performance

  5. This pedal is a simple, easy-to-use chorus. I find the first generation Boss products to be better than the later stuff. It gives a great chorusy underwater sound, you can get a few different sounds with it. It thickens your tone and sounds great. With pedals, I am now starting to find out which ones I really like and will actually use. This is one of them.

  7. Sound Quality

  8. This pedal is very quiet, gives a great chorus sound. I play a Strat with Kinman pickups into a 50 watt Marshall Superlead. It helps with effects pedals if you have a good tone to begin with. This pedal is an excellent chorus. I give it a 10 because it’s probably the best sounding one. I love the sound of this. On one song of ours, I have it on through the whole song.

  9. Sound Quality Rating: 10

  10. Construction

  11. It’s a Boss. It’s second hand, but I can’t see anything going wrong with it. All Boss pedals are built to last. However some sound good, others don’t.

  12. Construction Rating: 10
