Main Features
This is a “WAZA CRAFT series” effect unit featuring analog circuitry designed with attention to every detail in pursuit of the finest sound.
Standard mode completely replicates the sound of the CE-2 chorus, known for its mild modulation.
In addition, this unit provides a CE-1 mode (chorus, vibrato) which reproduces the sound of the world’s first chorus unit, the CE-1.
Panel Descriptions
DC IN jack |
CHECK indicator |
Accepts connection of an AC Adaptor (PSA series; sold separately). By using an AC Adaptor, you can play without being concerned about how much battery power you have left.
*Use only the specified AC adaptor (PSA series; sold separately), and connect it to an AC outlet of the correct voltage. Do not use any other AC adaptor, since this may cause malfunction.
* If the AC adaptor is connected while a battery is installed, the |
AC Adaptor |
|

power supply is drawn from the AC adaptor. |
(PSA series; sold separately) |

* We recommend that you keep batteries installed in the unit even |
|
|
|
|
|
|
though you’ll be powering it with the AC adaptor. That way, you’ll |

This indicator shows whether the effect is on or off, and also doubles as the battery check indicator. The indicator lights when the effect is on.
*If you’re powering the unit with a battery and the CHECK indicator goes dim— or doesn’t light at all—when you try to turn the effect on, the battery is near depletion and should be replaced. For instructions on changing the battery, refer to “Changing the Battery.”
*The CHECK indicator shows whether the effect is being applied or not. It does not indicate whether the power to the device is on or not.

Precautions When Connecting
*To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.
*Once everything is properly connected, be sure to follow the procedure below to turn on their power. If you turn on
equipment in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction or equipment failure.
When powering up: Turn on the power to your guitar amp last.
When powering down:Turn off the power to your guitar amp first.
Use of Battery
*A battery was installed in the unit before it left the factory. The life of this battery may be limited, however, since its primary purpose was to enable testing.
*If you handle batteries improperly, you risk explosion and fluid leakage. Make sure that you carefully observe all of the items related to batteries that are listed in “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” and “IMPORTANT NOTES” (supplied on a separate sheet).
*When operating on battery power only, the unit’s indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low. Replace the battery as soon as possible.
*Batteries should always be installed or replaced before connecting any other devices. This way, you can prevent malfunction and damage.
