Are there any out there? Turns out I can't really afford many of the options out there (basically only the Danelectros) so I was wondering if there are some not too complex preferably vero schems for some univibe style pedals out there. Thanks!

The Neovibe PCB is available at a very reasonable price from General Guitar Gadgets.

In response to the questions in the forum - PCB Layout for Musical Effects is available from The Book Patch. Search "PCB Layout" and it ought to appear.

Thanks! Had a look at the project though and it's too expensice, too complex for my level and some of the parts would be hard to get for me... Maybe someday though! Will look into more options. I saw a vero schematic in the archives for an easyvibe, may try that then!

The easyvibe is pretty good at getting the flavour of the Univibe, especially if you're looking for Gilmour type tones.

Not at all actually... I'm looking for a more liquid 'intro' style tone... dunno exactly. I can't think of anyone who had it. Maybe the intro to She's a Fox by Hendrix?

I'd recommend the easyvibe as a second alternative, then.

Thanks! I'll start gathering the parts and hopefully it won't be too much of a hard build. Most parts, if not all, are very common so far.

Except I need 4 'LRD's. What are they? I'm guessing photocells of some sort, but the very schem didn't specify which they should be.

Hi Pott,
i would recommand the NSL-7530 that smallbear sells
i know there are expensives but worth it really.

It's my favorite Hendrix tune right now. I don't actually have any of his three albums, just a bunch of random stuff  :icon_lol:

at 2.22 min it seems he sings "she's a stompbox... my baby"
