I dropped into Vintage Guitar Boutique 49 Bethnal Green Rd, London E1 6LA as I was in the area.
Not been there before. Great shop. Nice guys, easy unpretentious chat. The store was clearly positioned and designed to get the City types alongside the Hoxton Hipsters. A nicely laid out well stocked and spacious store full of the whole of the Fender range, a few used and some vintage guitars though not that many. Leather Sofas, carpets and no worries about noise for trying out kit.
This ex-demonstrator pedal was for sale and I'd been thinking about a univibe for some time so I picked it up at a good discount. Couldn't resist it with those graphics! Yes, I do know there are better Uni-vibes, but this one's got Jimi on it....
Last night I had a lot of fun pairing it with a Strat, a Marshall with DRRI combined with the uni-vibe through both sometimes and then through just one of them (which I prefer.)
Great running through those classics such as Wind Cries Mary, Voodoo Chile, Stone Free, Foxey Lady. etc with this on Don't know why I didn't get one before now.
