Regretfully I could have held onto them financially. I was moving around and didn't want to pack and ship them <sigh>Pepe wrote: ↑Sat Jun 04, 2022 5:12 pmWas it worth selling the bunch back then? If yes: you did the right thing.
If I had foreseen how steep the prices of vintage gear are going to be (ten years ago we had no Reverb, or did we?), I had kept a LOT of things to sell them now or in a few years. But I have learned to live with the fact that a lot of money has been lost, but at the time when I sold the stuff I was happy with the money that I made - and I really needed the money THEN and not NOW.

Re: Boss pedal photo thread
If you are a silly collector, like myself, and want "all" Boss chorus variants, expect to end up with 26ish (maybe more) pedals.
In this picture two are missing, one CE-2B (MIT orange label) that I have it, and a CE-2 (MIJ green label) that I don't have it... yet.
So, enjoy the chorus line:

Re: Boss pedal photo thread
Please record the sound of a guitar through all the 24 active pedals at once!
Re: Boss pedal photo thread
What are the differences between the CEB-2 variants?

Re: Boss pedal photo thread
The CE-2B was made in Japan (with the odd/cool knobs) and later in Taiwan (white knob caps). The sound is the same in my opinion. I had both versions, kept the MIJ model.
Re: Boss pedal photo thread
That is the so called "turbo mega blaster floyd", and is said to give you the same effect of a mild LSD dose.
The CE-2B variants are: MIJ skirt knobs, green label; MIT green label and MIT orange label.
The CEB-3 variants are: MIT pink label, analogue and MIT dark gray label, digital.
Re: Boss pedal photo thread
Doh. Sorry, I meant the CEB-3
Although maybe there is an ultra rare CEB-2 that you need to be looking out for Old_Iron?
How notable is the difference in sound between the analogue and digital versions?

Re: Boss pedal photo thread
It's possible, yesterday I was browsing the old forum topics and photos, posted by Pepe (thanks Pepe), and became aware that the Tremolo Pan PN-2 may have had prototypes named Swing Pan, so everything is possible in the Boss multiverse.
I am not a bass player, don't even have a bass guitar, but I can tell by the CH-1 and CE-5, analogue to digital comparison, that you can hear the difference at the first note played, the analogue ones are richer, more complex chorus, no doubt about it.
Re: Boss pedal photo thread
Cheers for the info. I've got an analogue CH-1 but have never tried the digital version. Was asking about the CEB-3 as I was thinking of picking up a few pedals for bass and that was on my radar.
Re: Boss pedal photo thread
If you want a CEB-3, buy a pink label analogue, beside to sound better it can be modded if you will, the digital is a "bit" more difficult to tweek the circuit.
