:cry: I miss mine. Didn't have enough volume for my band and waaayyyy too much bass for my U1, but the sound was still sweet. The chorus is unbelievable for leslie sounds.

Not enough volume? This thing kills my marshall head! I had it at about 7 and the marshall all the way up (I used the stereo output on my chorus pedal) and the marshall was nowhere near as loud, I switched the jacks around, same thing. It could also be that my marshall is pretty low end, but I love my new/used Princeton chorus.

I've heard the solderless plugs can come loose and need tightening every so often. Hhmmm get cable, get other plugs, get solder, FLY?

Thanks for the info dude!

I've had George L solderless ones for a couple of years. Never had any problem with them - through practices and gigs.

Not cool. You're going to damage something.

Make them right with patience, a decent knife and getting the end of the wire back to a circle before assembly and they will never fail

lol, wot? if it works, go with it, but i'm surprised. mine is awesome for recording, but not in a band situation.

So I've really disliked most chorus I've ever played, and I haven't really thought much of the effect in general, but I picked this sucker up today because my band is going to be Joy Division for a cover night all my friends are doing and gosh, I love it. I don't know how I ever lived without it.

teh John Squires. :)

So a while back when I was looking at all these chorus pedals, I was looking at these. This is one of those circuits that Ibanez (Maxon) and BOSS went back and forth on. The CS-9 circuit is very similar to the CE-2 circuit with the addition of a second channel. The CE-3 is like the CE-2 with some parts of the CS-9 circuit added onto it. This is very similar to the relationship between the TS-9, OD-1 and SD-1.

ah, yeh, it gets the job done. I only really use it if I'm messing around with stuff like this. chorus is more useful for guitar applications I think. that Applause Super Chorus is really cool. it's a CE-3 with the addition of a SENS knob. that let's you get way more sounds out of it. and I got it for $5 on ebay. :)

i'd love to rock one of those ibanez chorus pedals, not only do they look quite nice, they sound great too.

i'm just rocking this lately, dug out my old home brew pedalboard, now with old kitchen unit handles lol.

got a new phone (nokia E71), which has a better camera and instant upload to photobucket. thought i'd see if the auto upload works. been browsing/posting all week on it.

put the phase 90 and tu-2 back on the board.
