After extensive research that included vintage documentation, consultations with experts, and analysis of multiple original Uni-Vibe units from 1968 to 1974, Sabbadius Electronics discovered several component differences among those units—ranging from capacitors and resistors to light bulbs and photoresistors (LDRs). These subtle variations helped shape the iconic sound of different versions.

SABBADIUS FILLMORE EAST Funky-Vibe ST: According to some Uni-Vibe experts, this Uni-Vibe version is possibly the one Jimi Hendrix used in 1969 and 1970, whereas others said that Jimi used a 1968 Uni-Vibe in the United States and a 1969 version in Europe. The thing is that if you pay attention to the sound from the same song played in the U.S.A and compare it to the one played in Europe, including England, you will notice that the Throb of the Vibe and the effect’s “wave sound” do not evoke the same “Chewy” sound we might find in Jimi’s performances. Now I found that the SABBADIUS FILLMORE EAST Funky-Vibe version captures that “CHEWY” SOUND similar to the 69 & 70 Uni-Vibe version.

The unit has some marks around the sides where the paint has come off. It’s been on my board for a long time. Also the switch’s paint is slightly removed. The sticker on the bottom is missing, this is because it had velcro attached to the bottom. Other than that it’s working as it should. 

As I’ve had this unit for a while I’ve decided it’s time for a change. Maybe I’ll regret selling it as it sounds fantastic!
