has anyone really really tried out the above, and are there any differences. I think this guy is fishing!

I put this eBay item here, because this one has lots of pics and shows set screw knobs etc.

I'm surpised to see that a pedal made as recently as 1990 has set screw knobs but it might still be original. It's we haven't gathered information on before so who knows when they changed to press-fit knobs.

The $120 BIN is too high. I'm quite sure it will sound exactly as the Japan made version but this one's still made in Taiwan and it will bring the price down.

i really haven't seen the MIT CE-2 really even break $65.00. just doesn't have the mojo/nostalgia attached to the MIJ blackback.

Hi!
I would also be very interested in whether there are any technical and/or sound differences between MIJ and MIT CE-2s. Are their circuits identical?

Thanks for your input. Cheers!

I have read somewhere that the MIJ CE-2 sounds better as their internal trim pots was more carefully adjusted. Don�t know if it�s true, and I havn�t compared MIT & MIJ back to back.
