I got a CE-3 and a BF-2.
The CE-3 is is so horrible condition that if I show it, I will make all the ebayers who abuse Boss pedals (you know what I'm talking about...) look like they're treating their pedals with the highest respect possible. The thing looks like it has spent the last 3 years in a corrosive bath, in a humid basement... Yeah, I'll post some pics.
With it, a BF-2. Probably lived near the CE-3, but outside the corrosive bath... 
I couldn't let it die (I'm sure almost everybody would have throw it away), so I worked on it... I cleaned everything, I resolder everything, and I just finished setting the trimpots. It sounds as good as a good BF-2. 
It's a black label MIJ from august 1982.
(yes, the black panel is missing...)

Good job Basstyra! 
We can rebuild him - the six million dollar BF-2!
I'd be well impressed if you could get the CE-3 going! It looks WAY beyond repair. Do you know what happened to it? |

| It looks like someones played a few games of football with it, in a gravel driveway, against a brick wall, in steel toe capped shoes. |
