Description

I'm selling a used Boss-style chorus guitar effects pedal in blue. It's about 5–10 years old and is in good working condition with normal usage — it produces the expected chorus effect and all three control knobs respond. The enclosure shows visible vintage wear: paint chips, scratches, and some rubbed edges consistent with regular use. Input and output jacks function normally and the footswitch engages the effect reliably. No power adapter included; runs on a standard 9V battery or compatible adapter.

The Boss CE-3 Chorus is a vintage 1980s analog modulation pedal offering lush stereo chorus, a brighter and cleaner tone than the legendary CE-2, and typically sells for around $100 to $150 USD secondhand.Features and ControlsRate Knob: Controls the speed of the modulation effect.Depth Knob: Adjusts the intensity and pitch-shifting sweep of the chorus.Mode Knob: Switches between Mode I (mono chorus out of both jacks) and Mode II (stereo split with wet chorus on Output A and dry signal on Output B).Power Requirement: Older units require an ACA-style 12V power supply to function correctly with the LED indicator, though they run on a standard 9V battery.Sound and PerformanceTone Character: Slightly brighter, cleaner, and occasionally described as a bit more metallic or crisp than the warmer, rounder CE-2.Stereo Flexibility: The dual-output routing lets you achieve wide 80s spatial textures or a pseudo-vibrato effect.Community Sentiment: Opinions on The Gear Page are mixed, with some players calling it an undervalued analog gem while others feel it lacks the magic of the CE-2.If you want, let me know:Are you looking to buy a CE-3 or do you already own one?What kind of amp or stereo setup do you plan to run it through?I can help you figure out power requirements or signal chain tips.
