The Vibe-Bro by Shin-ei is a meticulously crafted chorus-vibrato pedal designed to replicate the iconic Uni-Vibe tones. It features a compact design, measuring 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" x 2 1/2", making it pedal board friendly and taking up about 20% less space than the original Uni-Vibe. The pedal is built using many NOS (New Old Stock) electronic components and original Shin-ei "old school" flavoring, ensuring a vintage sound reminiscent of the original '60s Uni-Vibe.
The Vibe-Bro employs a 6-pin DIN connector for its rate-controlling foot pedal, in contrast to a modern 1/4" jack, and it features a true bypass switching system. Additionally, it offers the option to choose between "TRUE BYPASS" or the original vintage vibe circuit "PREAMP" mode via the "Signal Path" slider switch on the back of the unit.
The pedal is hand-built, and great care is taken to voice each individual unit as close to the originals as possible. It is designed to provide a truly great tonal and playable experience, and the creators aim for users to be able to stand the Vibe-Bro side by side with an original 60's vintage Uni-Vibe and hear no noticeable differences.
The Vibe-Bro is available in international models with 220 volt and 240 volt configurations, as well as a special 100 volt model for the Japanese market.
