If I decide to buy this (or any CE-1 preamp-only clone) and a separate chorus pedal (e.g. Boss CE-2w), where should I put the chorus? Before the preamp, or after the stereo output?
I think a case could be made for either configuration. I would put it after if you wanted to have a stereo chorus (a dry output and a wet output). If you put the chorus pedal first you can only ever have a mono chorus.
What a nice tone. 😍 You've made it! I have owned a vintera 60 mod two years ago. Same style as your strat looks. But the pickups are so harsh and cold. I am going to change thr pickups. What are yours? They sound amazing!! 🤩 Can see there are staggered polepieces with no curved edges. So I guess these are no 57/62 and no fat 50s or 60s. Are you using CS 69 pickups?
Dude, your crom the Soo. I'm from the soo originally, maybe you had my old CE-1, lol does it say hub or hollis anywhere? Sold lots of killer old stuff when I was there in the 90s, lol
instead of doing a demo of comparing the JF-1 to the CE-1, can you just do a video demo of hearing how a dry signal sounds vs. how it sounds with the JF-1, maybe doing one segment playing clean, another slightly overdriven, and another heavily distorted.
Though it is not a direct comparison with the JF-1, I did demonstrate what my clean tone sounds like with or without the CE-1 in the second episode of my series "Sound More Like John Frusciante" th-cam.com/video/lSpeLyiaKIs/w-d-xo.html
Does John Frusciante always use the CE1 preamp in the LAST in the chain? Do you know what compressor he used for the red hot chilli peppers under the bridge because i think its the MXR micro amp stacked with the CE1 preamp to get that clean tone then goes to a compressor unit. I tried various compressors and I can't get those Frusciante tone so I'm thinking that under the bridge trademark frusciante tone is the MXR microamp+ CE1 preamp + compressor pedal?
As far as I know, he only ever had his reverb after the CE-1 (sometimes on one side only). As for the compressor, there's footage of him using the MXR Dyna Comp during the recording of BSSM and recently it's been on his live pedalboard for the first time. I don't think he used the MXR Micro Amp until the By The Way era!
That switch turns the chorus/vibrato effect on or off... but when the modulation effect is bypassed, the signal still gets amplified by the "level" control @@bjcalifornia333
@@theycallmejpj that's true! At least in the studio. If I recall correctly, his CE-1 was broken during the recording of BSSM so that's why he was using the FX65. No idea about MM but I think Michael Beinhorn really pushed him to have more of a "heavy metal" tone on that album. IMO, It's not really the tone he's known for. Anyways, the CE-1 is obviously just one piece of the puzzle but I really prefer my sound with it in my signal chain!
I'm planning on making an updated version but I'm not sure when. I still have PCBs so I can make them to order! Email me if you want one jfxpedals@gmail.com
May I ask a question? Is this pedal designed to be connected before the preamp section of the amp? Or is it designed to be connected after the preamp section, like the CE-1? sorry if my english is bad.
You are mastering this craft! Keep it up, J!
Thanks Dimitri! I appreciate the support 🙂
Just bought this pedal right now, very excited to try it out. Thanks for your hard work.
Will ship it today! Thanks for the support :)
Awesome! So much sound out of such a small enclosure!
Thanks 🙏 it was a real challenge to add the extra circuitry for the LED and the toggle switch in this small enclosure!
Ahhh man, i love this kind of videos !
You're ce1 preamp is amazing !
Thanks Harold! I'm glad I can finally start making these again :)
I only own a strat for one reason. This tone that you understand so well. I can't wait for my new JF-1!!
Same reason for me haha 😂 and that's great to hear! I'm happy to make them again!
Difference is indiscernible. Great work Jordan!
Thanks Mason ☺️
Fantastic Jordan! You're doing amazing work!!
Thanks Sean :) I appreciate your support and you being so kind to lend me your guitar!
Stoked to finally have one 🤩
Simply amazing work sir! Would love to add this to my pedalboard ❤️
Thank you 🙏 I'll have some for sale tomorrow on my site!!

Thank you very much 😊 my pickups are just stock 2017 American Pro ones!

Nice haha I didn't think I'd ever be able to find one of those here... I picked mine up from somebody off Craigslist in Vancouver about 5-6 years ago!

@@JFXPedals Under the bridge was the MXR dyna comp then to the CE-1 preamp?
@@waynegram8907 that would make the most sense to me!
@@JFXPedals try to make a video of getting that under the bridge clean compression tone.
Does John have his Preamp "Always on"?
As long as he has the CE-1 in his signal chain, his signal will always be going through that preamp
Interesting! I thought the left switch on the CE1 could turn it off.
That switch turns the chorus/vibrato effect on or off... but when the modulation effect is bypassed, the signal still gets amplified by the "level" control @@bjcalifornia333
Very helpful, thx! This explains why your pedal has an always on design
what strat model is? beautiful tone starting from there...
It's a 2017 American pro but I replaced the neck with a 2019 American original!
I think the ce-1 is more to do with stereo amps.
Certainly! That's why I included two outputs and this comparison demo is done in stereo with models of two different Marshall amps
@@JFXPedals that’s good. A lot of people seem to think the preamp is a big deal but I don’t believe this pedal was even used during MM or BSSM

Is this pedal designed to be connected before the preamp section of the amp?
Or is it designed to be connected after the preamp section, like the CE-1?
sorry if my english is bad.
It's the same circuit as what is in the CE-1. I typically run it last in my pedal chain before my amplifier. So before the amp's preamp.

@@JFXPedals
So it's the same place as John's ce-1.
thank you!!
@@SK-tw7od yup 👍
