SOLD! - 1970's Shin-Ei Uni-Vibe Chorus Vibrato + Foot Control Pedal univibe

This, dear ladies and gentlemen, is the real deal!!!
 
Designed by audio engineer Fumio Mieda to mimic the sound of radio signals from Russia undergoing atmospheric modulation, the Uni-Vibe was first introduced in 1967 as the Honey Vibra Chorus but took on its more familiar form in 1968 following the collapse of Honey and Shin-ei taking up the design. It was also at this point that the external speed control was added.

This unit, date stamped June 1973, is in great shape and is one of the nicest examples we've had. The front panel is in good shape with chips, marks and wear but nothing that detracts from the look. Even better: this looks as it sounds: MOJO! Overall it is in great cosmetic condition, works perfect and sounds absolutely fantastic! 

Gilmour, Trower, Hendrix, McCready, four reasons why you should try a Univibe at least once. Nothing comes close to the original. Close, but no cigar... All that wonderful modulation is here in one box, controlled effortlessly by the original footpedal. 

Iconic sounds you won’t get any other way...
