Boss CE-1 Chorus Ensemble — c. 1980, 117V, original MN3002 — recapped & calibrated

Serial 799878. Made in Japan, 117 V / 60 Hz U.S. export (13 W). Original Panasonic MN3002 BBD (triangle mark, date 89). Board ET-10 / 052-145. Original transformer and pots (M100K level, M50K chorus/vibrato; pot codes J81).

The original large-format Chorus Ensemble: JC-120 chorus/vibrato circuit, stereo outs, separate Chorus and Vibrato.

Service

•  Full electrolytic recap

•  Pots, jacks, and switches cleaned

•  Needed joints reflowed

•  Calibrated with signal generator and oscilloscope to the Roland CE-1 Service Notes

Vibrato had been slow to catch up; after the recap and calibration it tracks immediately. Chorus and vibrato both work as they should.

Condition

Faceplate has scratches. Gray crinkle has scuffs and light marks on the edges. Bottom plate, feet, knobs, footswitches, power switch, and attached 2-prong cord are present. Internals are original and serviced — not a chip-swap, not a parts unit.

117 V, plugs into a U.S. outlet. No box.
