Very classy chorus sound
rgdonaire 09.02.2020
I've never owned a chorus pedal, if anything I played through old multi fx units. I decided to pull the plug on the CE-2W as I really enjoy a nice lush chorus sound nowadays.

I use it on my guitar rig and the tones I'm getting are absolutely beautiful. Very lush, warm and defined. It's almost always on in my pedalboard. The Ce-2 mode is quite subtle and unintrusive, whereas the ce-1 is super lush. The vibrato is also a nice addition. Highly recommended.

If you want an incredible chorus sound look no further.

Superb stereo chorus
RichH 03.06.2022
Boss chorus is legendary.

These aim to produce the classic sounds of their vintage units, in a small footprint, reliable modern format. And it is not just one sound, but there are variants, so it is very flexible.

So as you'd expect, it is a great sounding pedal. Of course this is at a higher price point than some alternatives, so you have to decide if it is worth that to you, but the sound quality is excellent, and Boss build quality has never been in doubt.

A really excellent chorus with no compromises, though lower cost options may be okay if you don't need all the range of sounds that this can provide.

Excellent customer service from Thomann as usual.

Great Chouse Uni-Vibe Style pedal
Umby 03.10.2020
This pedal is the true replica of the legendary CE-1 Chorus Ensemble, the world's first Chorus pedal introduced back in 1976.
Just 3 years later Boss introduced the CE-2 Chorus pedal,
The CE-2w comes with a 3 way switch allowing you to select 3 different Chorus modes:
l) Standard mode - offers the exact replica sound of the CE-2
Il) CE-1 mode
III) delivers chorus and vibrato, very similar to the Uni-Vibe
(US and Them from Dark Side of the Moon)
It's a super pedal you can't miss

Outstanding
SJS 14.02.2021
I use this pedal with electric guitar, bass, synths and other machines. When researching about the best chorus pedals in existence, i of course had heard about the mythical BOSS CE-1 Chorus Ensemble. Eventually i even used an original one in a studio... Fast forward to Summer 2019 - i order my beautiful Boss CE-2w - There it was - the magical sound i heard in countless records!

Pros: Indestructible, handcrafted in Japan classic pedal

Cons: None

Great replica/improvement
Paddydaly 23.12.2017
Great little pedal. Replicates the chorus sound of the original ce1 &2 perfectly (or close enough that most wont know the difference). Anyone playing 80s style songs needs one of these! The three modes offer good variety of sounds. I have run it in stereo mode with good results-it runs wet from one output and dry from the other. Very happy with the purchase. I use it for guitar only.

Ein echter Klassiker
ELMangoRelajado 01.04.2023
mich das beste Chorus Pedal aus dem Vergleichsvideo! Ich verwende es schon seit einem Jahr und hab es schon in einigen Produktionen hergenommen. Ich verwende sowohl die CE Modes als auch den S Modus. Ich habe neben dem CE-2w noch den Dimension C und einen Komorebi Chorus, aber der CE-2w ist mein absoluter go to bei Chorus!

Sold my boss super chorus ch-1 for this boss chorus ce-2w because the ch-1 has too many options and the ce-2w is simpler. It always made me be insecure about the chorus eq!

Boss CE-2wow!!!!!
byben 22.01.2018
I love this one very much, very organic sounds, three modes with great sounds so nice versatilty, nice 'touch' due to analog circuit, and the stereo on my two Rivera amps it's....it's.... (no words to say lol)

Careful; if you jack the two outputs, you will have to use the two outputs cause the pedal reacts in a different way. I wanted to put the stereo cables of the BCB and use 1or2 output of the BCB
but it doesn't work properly.

lives up to the hype!
HHHugo 10.01.2021
the jazz chorus circuit makes this pedal worth the price, it sounds amazing when hooked up to 2 different amplifiers using the stereo outputs

it’s a chorus sound that sounds great with acoustic or clean guitar or bass but doesn’t handle distortion so well, if that is what you’re looking for

Best chorus sound I own
andreandre 29.09.2020
Simply the best chorus pedal I can think of. Simple, built like a tank (in Japan) and just otherworldly good sounding. I can't think of anything else to say about this beauty. I'm writing this review one year after having bought the pedal and I'm still in the honeymoon phase :) I wish to be buried with it one day
