Sabbadius Electronics Maui Funky-Vibe
Maker: Sabbadius Electronics
Model: Maui Funky-Vibe
Condition: New
Description:
Jimi Hendrix played at Maui on July 30th 1970 for 400 people during the movie called Rainbow Bridge in Hawaii. Jimi was all dressed up in a black shirt with round silver and turquoise balls on its sleeves shirt and 2 silver/white lines and all black Oxford bellbottom pants, Jimi wielded his amazing Olympic White, maple necked Fender Stratocaster & his Flying V Gibson guitar. That is why the New SABBADIUS Maui Funky-Vibe comes in that black colour with Blue LED´s .
Now SABBADIUS introduces the Maui Funky-Vibe version to commemorate this amazing concert.
The SABBADIUS Maui Funky-Vibe version has 2022 edition 7mm CUSTOM-MADE CdS Photocells made exclusive for SABBADIUS Electronics and an original 1970’s Japanese lamp bulb to give that “CHEWY”classic tone of a good Uni-Vibe. The SABBADIUS Maui Funky-Vibe version has more control in the range of fast SPEEDS and less low speeds increasing the phase wave modulation as been hearing in “HEY BABY (NEW RISING SUN) song”. “To get that tone you can play with the INTENSITY knob from 4 to 7 and the SPEED knob from 2 to 4 to get that nice and chewy low end Uni-Vibe sound he used to use”.(This setting can vary from unit to unit considering that potentiometers usually have a +- 20% tolerance, I advise you to follow your own ear to identify which is the best setting for you).
The New 2022 7mm CdS Photocells CUSTOM-MADE for SABBADIUS Electronics and will increase the throb INTENSITY in all aspects and you are going to feel that swirling sound that JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCED with THE original Uni-Vibe HE used.
* The transistors used here are the Matsushita 2sC828 for signal path and 2sC539 for the Pre-Amp section like in the original Uni-Vibe. The pedal features 3 knobs, which set VOLUME, INTENSITY, and SPEED. It has a 1/4-inch (6.5 mm) output conection for an expression pedal allowing you to control the speed with your foot (Expression Pedal NOT included). It also features 2 footswitches: one of them activates the effect for True Bypass, the other one switch is the CANCEL function that allows you to use the pedal as a Pre-Amp or like the original Uni-Vibe effect sounds…, this means that you turn off the lamp bulb keeping a high impedance in the photocells that gives to the sound a wonderful Pre-Amp like Original Uni-Vibe’s did in the foot control pedal with the tact switch. It has a hand painted soft switch with airbrush and enamel paint lacquered with gloss lacquer for a longer durability of the paint.
The RED/WHITE soft Rocker Switch is for you to set the modes, when RED POSITION is DOWN activates the “CHORUS” MODE and when the WHITE POSITION IS DOWN you are in “VIBRATO” MODE.
The SABBADIUS Maui Funky-Vibe has a built in transformer inside the enclosure like the Original Uni-Vibe has with the correct power and voltage to get best performance and has the cable cord from the unit to conect to the wall.
The INPUT transformer can be a 100Vac, 120Vac, 127Vac, 220Vac, 230Vac and 240Vac.
The pedal will be shipped with the correct transformer to the country that places the order, for example, if you are from U.S.A you will receive a SABBADIUS Maui Funky-Vibe with a transformer inside of 120Vac INPUT, if you are from SPAIN you will receive an inside transformer of 230Vac.
The pedal has a Fuse socket with a fuse inside that is there to protect the circuit in case there is an overload on the voltage. The unit comes with one fuse inside and one outside as a backup, also comes with 2pcs. 2sC828 transistors for LFO circuit in case you shortcut them conecting a wrong cable to the FOOT CONTROL jack or an incorrect Expression pedal. Please read the other sheet that comes with the pedal on How To Make an Expression pedal for your Funky-Vibe.
