BOSS CE-3 MOD

REMOVE THE 4 SCREWS IN THE BOTTOM OF THE PEDAL. THEN GENTLY


PULL THE BOARD DOWN FROM THE BOTTOM UNTIL IT LOOKS LIKE THE
PHOTO BELOW.

1. CHANGE CAPS MARKED A TO 1UF FILM CAPS (3 TOTAL)


2. CHANGE CAP MARKED B TO .47UF FILM CAP.
3. CHANGE CAP MARKED C TO 81PF SILVER MICA CAP.
4. CHANGE RESISTOR E TO THE 470K METAL FILM RESISTOR
(YELLOW, PURPLE, BLACK, ORANGE, BROWN) IT IS THE ONE ON
THE BOTTOM RIGHT OF THE LETTER E, DIRECTLY UNDERNEATH
THE 2 GREEN CAPACITORS.
5. SOME PEOPLE NOTICE A VOLUME DROP. IF YOU WANT TO FIX
THAT, REPLACE R18 WITH THE 249K RESISTOR. R18 IS LOCATED
BETWEEN THE BLACK TRANSISTORS BY MARKER “B”. IT IS 180K
(BROWN, GREY, YELLOW, GOLD).
6. To convert the pedal to use a PSA 9v adaptor, pull D1 and R1 ( can be 220,
390, or 470 ohm) in the top right corner of the pedal and install jumpers there.

PHOTO BELOW IS OF COMPLETED MOD.
