1960s Univox Uni-vibe (made by Shin-ei) for sale.

It has (fairly obviously) been installed in a rack case. It's not the prettiest of jobs, but after some work by our tech the effect itself is working well and sounding great. See report below for details. No pedal included.

Tech Report:

  • Was not working - missing fuseholder, confused mains wiring, LFO and lamp not functional.

  • Got the LFO up and running, but we’re not going to find the right stereo 250k pot for this so I made a
    little circuit to control the rate with a vactrol which works nicely.

  • Have also fitted an FET input buffer as these things don’t have a very high input impedance and so are
    prone to loss of top end when driven from a guitar etc.

  • Looks like whoever racked it was going to put another one it it. I have plugged the spare holes and used
    one to fit an LED that glows with the LFO. Why not?

Condition

Case has some scuffs and marks and the work done has a somewhat "homemade" look to it. "Functional" is the word. See photos for more information.

Voltage Information

220/240v unit. A step-up transformer will be required for use on 110/120v supplies. Please ask if you need advice on what to use. We do not recommend using cheap, generic Chinese mains transformers.

Tax

For sales in UK the price will include 20% VAT. Buyers elsewhere may incur VAT or other local taxes on import.
