I no longer Ship to South America due to the large number of parcels disappearing!

Please Note! I receive many messages from customers wanting to purchase however it says "out of stock" When going to pay. As I am located in Australia, Reverb only allows PayPal to be the Merchant to manage the payment.

A paypal Account is Not Required and Credit card payment is available. They are simply acting as the Merchant.

If you select any other form of Payment (ie Reverb Payments) etc etc it will say the item is out of stock!

I have contacted Reverb several times about this, but this message seems to be the only solution!

Now with 5 x Switchable Mods!

True Bypass, Depth, Pot, Buffer & new Boost 'N' Blend!

Now with Premium High/Low Toggle switch !

What is it?
The PastFx Chorus Ensemble MN3007 (CE-7) is a modified PastFx Chorus Ensemble Deluxe ,using the less obsolete NOS MN3007 BBD , Which is Inspired By the Boss Ce-1 Chorus Ensemble.
The CE-7 uses the same PCB as the Deluxe, is almost identical with components and is attractively priced.
The CE-7 operates off the same bipolar voltages, the exact same preamp section, and incorporates both switchable Depth and Buffer Mods.
 
Features
- Very small enclosure footprint
( 12cm x 9.4cm // 4.7" x 3.7" 1590BB enclosure used)
• Uses obsolete NOS Panasonic / Matsushita 1024 stage BBD MN3007
• incorporates the “Noise Killer” circuitry
• Same unique Preamp stage
• Normal / effect footswitch
• Vibrato / Chorus footswitch
• Triangle Wave LFO – Chorus
• Sinewave LFO - Vibrato
• Not True Bypass* (Jfet switching) – (Optional Stereo True bypass mod available)
• Peak Level Indicator visual feedback of input sensitivity
• High / Low Input sensitivity changeover switch
• Dual colour LFO rate LED, visual indication of selected effect
       Blue – Chorus
       Red – Vibrato
• Stereo/ Mono Outputs. In a Stereo setup, wet signal is directed to the Stereo jack and Dry to the Mono output jack.
• Vibrato controls are Depth & Rate
• Chorus is controlled by Intensity knob (which controls both rate and depth)
• When effect is bypassed the LFO LED indicator remains on without flashing
• Pedalboard friendly, uses minimal real estate and operates off industry standard (9VDC negative tip 2.1mm )
• The CE-7 incorporates up to 5 extra popular switchable Mods
• The Mods can all be switched off, restoring to the original circuit or selectively activated by taste. These include:

Depth Mod
This mod is popular for those who were wanting more control over their chorus effect.
When activated it allows the use of the Vibrato Depth knob to control the Chorus Depth. The Stock depth setting of the Chorus can still be achieved by turning the Vibrato Depth knob fully clockwise.
Buffer Mod
The activation of the Buffer circuit can help restore some of the high frequencies. It is more noticeable when the Input sensitivity switch is on high. The CEMN3007 inbuilt buffer circuit can be added or removed as desired.
Note: When clipping the signal heavily by having the Level control on high, it can give various responses based on what type of amp is being played through.
On some amps it can almost sound like a fuzz, and on others a more traditional crunch sound! This is the same experience with the Deluxe.
Stereo True Bypass Mod 
When activated, the Stereo True Bypass mod allows for both outputs to be … you guessed it, True Bypass!

Pot Mod 

When activated, changes the default level control potentiometer value from 50K to 500K resistance.As the Original Ce-1 was designed with keyboards in mind, many guitarists who owned original CE-1 pedals would replace the 50K pot for a higher value.  

Boost 'N' Blend

The switchable Boost ‘N’ Blend mod allows the user to customise the chorus output levels and wet and drysignal balance. Switching both Wet & Dry slide switches to “MOD'' position allows the 2 white trimpots to beactivated. This will allow an increase or reduction of the overall level of the Wet modulated & Dry signal. By simply adjusting the trims, it is possible to change the stock wet/dry blend ratio. For those wanting a “cleaner” chorus, the external level control can be turned down and the two internal boost trims can increase the overall level to match unity. The opposite can also be achieved, for those wanting to push the “Preamp Crunch'' hard but retain unity with the True Bypass level. Simply turn the Level control to maximum and use the internal trimpots to reduce the overall level to match. 

All 5 mod switches are located inside back of unit.

 Dimensions : 120 x 94 x 50mm (1590BB style enclosure)

Hi there I've just tried the pedals out and I can't believe it. There Perfect. Absolutely perfect. They sound right. Respond right. Are right. Incredible. Your the first person who has nailed it for me. I've tried alot of ce1 clones and ce1 boost clones. Non of which worked and added anything. They were just clean boosts. So just made things harsher and louder. Yours are the first pedals where i can actually tell there doing something magical. Awesome. I cannot wait to demo these. Dave
