SHIN-EI RESLEY TONE RT-18 (Uni-Vibe!)
Ultra-rare Shin-Ei Resley Tone Pedal fully serviced and in perfect working order & excellent cosmetic condition for a pedal dating from around 1970. It sounds absolutely stunning.
This pedal is the precursor to the more famous Univibe and features the same circuit - forget the modern clones, this is the real deal. Pretty much identical to the Phase Tone PT-18 - it is a pedal version of a Leslie speaker... It does Leslie and more - Tremolo, Vibrato and Phase, from slow and wavy to fast and choppy. We've had one in the studio for years and absolutely love it.
Same circuit as the legendary Uni-Vibe - although pre-dating it - one of the first instances of Fumio Mieda's 'Mood' circuit being extracted from the legendary Companion Psychedelic Machine.
It sounds great with guitar, keyboards, synths and as a mix effect - a great tool to have in your studio arsenal...
Condition is excellent - it has one paint mark on the casing, plus a few small spots (these may well be removable) but that is about it.
240v model.

Thank you @soundgasltd, shes a beaut...
If not a new language, then at least a very challenging, old dialect that will take me some time to assimilate. I've been waiting a long time for the challenge. Thank you @soundgasltd, she's a beaut..and noboy prepares and packs like you fine folks.
