The Tube-Vibe™ is a radical new kind of vibe pedal built using old-school thermionic technology! Instead of transistors, this psychedelic phasing machine utilises vacuum tubes, photocells and a pulsating filament lamp to generate rich, swirling, phase-blurred chorus and vibrato effects.

Like the Shin-Ei Uni-Vibe, the Tube-Vibe is based on the Hammond AO-41 organ vibrato unit. But, unlike the Uni-Vibe, the Tube-Vibe’s pre-amp, mixer and phase-shifter sections are built using vacuum tubes. Further, the Tube-Vibe features a dual LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) that generates thick, swampy vibe tones at higher modulation rates and smooth, shimmering chorus effects at slower rates. The effect is outrageously cool—it’s the lushest, most psychedelic sounding guitar pedal there is. One of those devices that epitomise analogue with it’s unique, liquid, phase-blurred tone—impossible to simulate!

The Tube-Vibe handles passive single coils or “hot” active humbucker pickups effortlessly. It’s immune to high signal levels which would undoubtedly cause severe clipping distortion in solid-state vibe pedals. Typically, the Tube-Vibe ships with a 12AU7 tube in its input stage for stunning, clean vibe tones and maximum headroom. Want more gain and growl? Then we can swap out the 12AU7 out for a higher gain variety, such as a 12AY7 or 12AX7. A 12AY7 will thicken up the tone of a “Strat”; and a 12AX7 will push tube amps into overdrive for some serious sustain. Just ask Sam before you place your order.

FEATURES

All Tube: Vacuum tube circuitry operating at real amp plate voltages for low background noise and stacks of headroom—the ultimate in audiophile performance!

Dual LFOs: The “Classic” setting authentically replicates the deep, lopsided throb of the Uni-Vibe. The “Smooth” setting produces the dreamy, ethereal meta-chorus of a Hammond B-3. Further, the LFO can be halted (frozen) so that it operates as a sweepable notch filter creating hollow sounding scooped tones.

Chorus/Vibrato Switch: Selects between the classic Hendrix/Trower Uni-Vibe chorus and Gilmourish pitch-shifting vibrato.

High input impedance: Your guitar pickup “sees” a 1MΩ tube amp input stage, ensuring a wide, open and clear tone. In comparison, the input resistance of the Uni-Vibe is only 69KΩ. This is low enough to load single coil pickups and dull the tone of the guitar.

True Bypass Switching: With Effectrode’s unique “anti-pop” bypass circuitry utilising sealed, gold-contact relay.

“Dakaware” Knobs: Authentic Bakelite Dakaware Chicago knobs manufactured in the U.S.A using the original 1940s moulds!

Purple LED: Throbs & pulsates with modulation speed for visual song tempo matching
