So, I was curious about the new Jimi Hendrix pedals that MXR released. Particularly... The 70th Anniversary Univibe, as I am looking to replace my chorus. Anyhow, I was wondering if anybody on the forum had tried it. So if anyone's tried it, please give me your opinions on it. Thanks in advance. Regards, Victor
I was trying to figure out how there could be a 70th anniversary Univibe, until I realized they must be going off Jimi's date of birth. Really? 'Cause I kind of tend to think about him as a late 60's artist...
I really like it. For the price, it really is a decent emulation of a vintage Uni-Vibe. You can get subtle with it, dial in some seasick vibes, or make it sound really spacy and springy. Plus you can switch it to vibrato-only mode. They're still available from retailers but some jokers on ebay are already looking for $250 plus for them. So if you still want one, I'd go for it. There are definitely better Uni-Vibe clones out there, but they're also 100 bucks more. Mojo Hand is coming out with a version that could be tempting for me though.
