Uni-Vibe derivative lush chorus and vibrato. Tones of Jimi Hendrix, Robin Trower and David Gilmour.

The Supa MkI is a replica of the MkI Supa Fuzz from 1966. The circuit has three OC75 germanium transistors and is similar to the MkI Tone Bender®. The main difference is that the fuzz is fixed at maximum and the fuzz control in the Tone Bender® (Attack) is replaced with a tone control (Filter). This is the reason for the fuzz control being mislabelled as "Filter" on the later Supa Fuzzes, which had the MkII Tone Bender® circuit.

Supa MkI Features:

• Built with the original Supa Fuzz prototype as a reference.
• Circuit on 0.15" pitch strip board using the same layout as the original (bar the addition of an output capacitor, which the original lacks).
• Three NOS germanium transistors. OC75s at extra cost

Prices

• With NOS Mullard metal can military transistors - £ 250.00 (£ 300.00 inc. VAT)
• With NOS OC75 transistors - £ 275.00 (£ 330.00 inc. VAT)

The Magical Mystery Box™ circuit is based on the "Brilliant" channel of the JMI-era Vox Supreme/Defiant/Conqueror solid state amps. This series of amps was introduced in 1967 and various models were used by the Beatles on the Magical Mystery Tour EP and the White Album, and also by the Rolling Stones, from the We Love You single through to Let it Bleed. An original Vox Conqueror amplifier was used for reference in the creation of the Magical Mystery Box™.

The pedal provides the clean, trebly sound of the amp, and has two switchable effects: MRB (Mid-range Resonant Boost) and Distortion. The MRB feature produces the same effect as a fixed wah (in fact, the Vox wah wah circuit was a development of the MRB effect).

The latest batch will by default be made without any LEDs on the foot switches, as were the first custom built MMBs. It looks cleaner without LEDs cluttering up the face. :)

LEDs remain an option, at an additional charge - please see pricing below.

Features are as follows:

• True Bypass, with optional status LED
• Foot-switchable MRB and Distortion effects, with optional status LEDs
• High quality FR-4 glass-epoxy circuit board
• Custom, hand wound inductor in the MRB circuit
• Metal film resistors for low noise
• 9V DC operation (power supply not lincluded). A 2.1mm centre-negative, standard Boss-type supply is required.

Prices

• £ 249.00 (£ 298.80 inc. VAT) without LEDs (default option)
• £ 269.00 (£ 322.80 inc. VAT) with status LED for each foot switch

The Wizard is a new distortion pedal, inspired by Tony Iommi's guitar sound on the early Black Sabbath albums. It is well known that he used a modified Rangemaster to drive his amps, so the same principle was used for The Wizard. The first gain stage is essentially a Rangemaster, using a germanium transistor, but tweaked for a full range boost. That drives a distortion circuit which has been designed to give something of the tone and feel of a Laney Supergroup amp. Obviously, there is no substitute for a full stack at volume, but The Wizard has a similar distortion character and responds well to picking dynamics.

Features:

• True Bypass
• FR-4 glass-epoxy circuit board
• 9V DC operation, battery or external power supply (2.1mm centre-negative, standard Boss-type supply is required)
• Negative earth, no need for a dedicated power supply.

The Wizard - £ 195.00 (£ 234.00 inc. VAT)

An update of the 1960s Uni-Vibe®, the Supra-Vibe™ is based on an early example (pictured below), which differs slightly from the more common later units.

The Supra-Vibe™ circuitry is faithful to the original, with the exception of improvements to the power supply, for quieter operation. Features are as follows:

• True Bypass with status LED
• Cancel switch with rate LED
• Jack socket for external speed pedal (available separately)
• High quality FR-4 glass-epoxy circuit board
• Metal film resistors for low noise
• 18V DC operation (power supply not included). The Voodoo Labs Iso 5 and Pedal Power 2 work well. A Dunlop ECB-04 is also suitable if you prefer a dedicated power supply.

The Cancel switch has the same function as that of the original Uni-Vibe® - the internal lamp is turned off, but the signal still passes through the circuit. This colours the sound noticeably, as can be heard on many recordings.

Because some players like to nail every aspect of the original sound, the Cancel switch allows the unit to be operated in the same way as the original Uni-Vibe®. The rate LED pulses in sync with the internal lamp.

For those who want a clean dry sound, the Cancel switch can be ignored - use the Bypass switch instead and you have a regular true bypass effect.

Prices

• Supra-Vibe - silver-grey or black £ 279.00 (£ 334.80 inc. VAT)
