VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: This is an awesome pedal that exactly reproduces the Hendrix/SRV sound. If you want an authentic Univibe sound, you have to buy it! I had a Micro Vibe from Voodoo labs and it didn't come close to this sound. I use this pedal in conjuction with a TS808 modified by Keeley Electronics; a Vox 847 wah pedal; a Micro POG and a Boss Giga Delay. Don't use the Univibe with any echo or a wah pedal as that is too much modification to the signal, in my hunble opinion. Also experiment with differnet pickup selections. I find that for different speeds of the Univibe, certain pickups sound better than others. I use a Fender Stratocaster Hwy. 1 with a Fender Super Reverb Reissue. Feature: The Univibe came with the adapter as it does not work on batteries. For those who use a pedal board, be aware this is an 18 volt adapter. Ease of Use: You need to spend time experimenting with the unit. Also, there is a button on the back that lets you chose Vintage or Modern. Vintage is a much more "brown" sound so be sure you experiment with that button as well. One of the things that you must be aware of is that it takes some time to dial in the sound that you are looking for. It is very response to its controls so just a touch of the dial is going to give you a much different sound. Quality: This thing is built like a rock and it is heavy! It will not be moving around much because it weighs about 4 pounds. The stainless steel looks really cool. Value: For the sound I was looking for, the price was perfect. Compared to a lot of other "Univbe" type pedals, your going to pay more and not get the correct sound. Manufacturer Support: I haven't had to contact them so who knows? The Wow Factor: You gotta try this out. Check out youtube and listen to the examples there. The vids are pretty bad but you can hear the sound the unit makes and that is what is important. Overall: I have tried a number of "Univibe" clones and finally paid for the real thing. This is the sound that I was looking for all along but kept thinking I could find it in a cheaper unit. You can't! If this unit failed I would replace it.

VERIFIED BUYER

zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.

Sound: Rich, creamy chorus and smooth vibrato. Absolutely silent compared to my Small Clone, and about a thousand times better than the software vibrato/chorus in Logic. I play Les Pauls through various Fender tube amps and occasionally record DI. Sounds great in every configuration, but especially with those gorgeous Fender clean channels. Feature: Well, it has two sonic features -- chorus and vibrato. It does its job and sounds great; what more do you want in a pedal? Nice bonus: AC adapter is included. Ease of Use: Three knobs, a chorus/vibrato footswitch, and a (silent) bypass switch. It takes minimal experimentation to dial up a nice tone. One-page manual, but you don't need it. Quality: Feels like a brick. It's made of steel. You get the sense that you could beat it with a sledgehammer.

Sound: The pedal pretty much replicates the sound of "Machine Gun" from Jimi Hendrix exactly. It may be 200 bucks but it shows in its sound. Feature: it comes with a little thinger you can hook up to the wall Quality: its all real solid
