CE-1 Chorus Ensemble
The Boss CE-1 Chorus Ensemble is a true icon of the guitar effects world, a pedal that has graced the rigs of countless legendary players and defined the sound of entire genres. This analog chorus marvel was one of the first stompboxes to bring the lush, shimmering textures of studio-quality chorus to the stage, and its influence can still be heard in the tones of modern music. At the heart of the CE-1's magic is its dual-BBD (bucket brigade device) circuit, which generates a rich, organic chorus effect by subtly modulating the pitch and phase of your guitar signal. The result is a captivating, three-dimensional soundscape that adds depth, movement, and dimension to your tone without ever sounding artificial or overpowering. Legends like David Gilmour, The Edge, and Prince were all known to rely on the CE-1's mesmerizing swirl to elevate their playing to new heights. But the CE-1 is more than just a pretty face - its versatility is what has kept it a fixture on pedalboards for over four decades. With controls for depth, rate, and balance, you can dial in anything from a subtle shimmer to a pulsing, oscillating wash, making it an indispensable tool for everything from shimmering clean tones to gritty, modulated leads. If you're seeking to add that elusive "je ne sais quoi" to your sound, the Boss CE-1 Chorus Ensemble is a must-have.
