gpuma Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 When I moved to Chicago, back in 2003, I brought with me my Stat, my Marshall and few pedals but I pretty much never used them till last year. I actually thought I had given the pedals to my nephew but apparently I did not as they cam out of one of the last boxes I opened after the move. This is what I found: Cosmosound Wha Boss CS3 and a Korg Chorus CHR-1 I wonder if they still work.
PunkKitty Posted September 29, 2012 Posted September 29, 2012 Assuming there was no battery leakage that could damage the circuits, they should work.
gpuma Posted September 29, 2012 Author Posted September 29, 2012 Assuming there was no battery leakage that could damage the circuits, they should work. the compressor and the Wha had no battery. the chorus unfortunately had still a battery. I'll check it out tomorrow or sunday
gpuma Posted September 30, 2012 Author Posted September 30, 2012 Wha and chorus don't work right. The wha has extremely low output while the chorus works intermittently. When it works it sounds really nice but it feels like there is an intermittent connection (not when the pedal is by-passed). The Cs3 works like a charm. Such a great little pedal
kidsmoke Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 The Cs3 works like a charm. Such a great little pedal Sending mine for mods soon. look forward to messing with it when it comes home. http://www.jhspedals.com/products/mod-shop/boss-cs-3-hi-fi/
DetroitBlues Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 I'd be interested to know how the mods sound. Thinking I might need a compressor myself.
gpuma Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 Sending mine for mods soon. look forward to messing with it when it comes home. http://www.jhspedals...oss-cs-3-hi-fi/ do you really need to mod it? it seems great as it is. I am bummed about the Chorus too. When I am able to make it work it sounds really phenomenal
koula901 Posted October 5, 2012 Posted October 5, 2012 I wonder if those old pedals are worth good money. They look like they're 40 years old!
gpuma Posted October 6, 2012 Author Posted October 6, 2012 They are probably 30ish years old. I have seen a Korg Chorus on ebay for ~250 which is not bad at all. The Wha is really difficult to say. Cosmosound is (probably was) an Italian manufacturer in the 70s, if I am not mistaken
