- Monday 4/26/21...day two of a four day Ann Wilson project at Backstage studio in Nashville TN.
We are doing a couple old cover songs. I don’t want to spoil any surprises by mentioning any song names, but one of them is a very famous Univibe masterpiece about a certain “bridge” by a guy who used to be known for playing through Marshall 8x10” cabinets.....
Ann enlisted the help of dear Kenny Wayne Shepherd to come in and play some amazing guitar on this track.
I brought my original Univibe from home today for Kenny to use, but when he showed up at the studio today he had already brought two of his own original Univibes along with him of course....
Kenny is a fine guitar player and a very nice fella....and after he got done playing beautifully on the track, we couldn’t help ourselves from doing that thing that all guitar players just LOVE to do...a little comparison between the three original Univibes that were all sitting there in the studio at the same time....
why? because, well....how many times in life are you gonna have three old Univibes just sitting there waiting to be plugged in??
So...by God we plugged ‘em in... to my old ‘59 tweed 4x10 bassman... and sweet Zack (the studio second engineer) was kind enough to film the proceedings.
Hope you all enjoy this little demonstration of just how different every piece of old gear really is, even if it’s technically the “same” model

My kind of party
Love your pedal demos Man.
“Let’s go back to the good one.”
Died laughing.
Uncle Larry, KWS, 3 univibes and a vintage bassman = good times
I have owned 2 Univibes in the past & was fortunate to have Bob Sweet, RIP, to have him service & repair them.
Omg I feel so privileged watching this. Coolest stuff I've seen in a while.
the fact that "dear Tom" adds pretty much every time "dear" and "sweet" to the names of his fellow musicians , friends ans so on , indicates the goodness of his soul !
bless you Tom , for that !
I like how KWS sits on the floor and messes with stuff like I do. 😂
My band mates give me crap about it.
That's how you learn things about your pedal... You twist knobs!
That old unit sounds perfect... the pinnacle...
The short story in the video description really adds perspective to the video and makes it all so much better knowing the situation not just seeing a moment and not understanding the context. Love ya guts guys keep inspiring us all
The oldest Univibe sounded like Jimi left some DNA in it !!
Indeed!!!! Best comment
THIS is great stuff!
Kenny making a HomeSkoolin debut!!! Sweet!!!
Dustin Sears knows his Vibe!!!!!🙏🎸🙏🎸
Well it's f****** cool to have two of them in the same room.
Tom, thanks for taking the time to fill the description with such great detail! Super cool that you documented this rare moment! The variance from pedal to pedal is really eye opening.
That second one had Juice !!!!!!!
This is badass. Thanks Uncle Larry !
Definitely got to have the Tweed Bassman aimed right at you to get the Full Monty.
🤣🤣🤣
Yeah yeah yeah, but can you turn the bass UP plz? 🥰
Man... univibe heaven, that so awesome KW is a bad ass and so is our uncle Larry!
Such a stunning difference ! I love those pedals can't afford an original one but my Deja vibe is doing a good job
2 fav guitarists in the same room👍😊
I can feel the universal Univibe love in the air and am digging the vibe. Thanks as always.
The eldest univibe has a real funky swamp sauce about it. love it
As much of this as you can spare please. Very cool!
My main stratocaster has the initials of my 10-12 favorite guitarists/guitar heroes carved into the body with a soldering iron.😅 These two are both on it. Two of the greatest on the same session 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thanks for giving the mear mortals another insight. Jeezus this is great stuff, keep it coming pal. Respect and stay healthy all.
Wow two of my favourite guitar players in one room, magic !!, the difference between those Univibes was incredible :)
Night and Day difference wow! Don't know how I missed this video, thank you.
So for all of us.
My thoughts exactly. 😂
yes im a gear head - YOUR BOY FROM CLE - love it!
Load bloooown! KWS is a total badass, Slow Ride was such a killer song of his with the vibe!
Uncle Larry this channel is pure fuckin' gold.
The oldest one has a "chewier" vibe. So killer!
That's full on wah wah, that song
Univibe lover here!
Just uncle Larry and little Kenny Wayne playing wit their vibes...that’s a hell of a flex! Love it! 🤣
Great opportunity to A/B/C a few great vibes. Uncle Larry here has been through more gear than anyone any of us knows. And many of us in town, myself included, now own fantastic pieces of gear that he decided to move. My main Les Paul is still a sweet old no-volute 69 Custom I got from Uncle Larry with the original rectangle case.
That old one on the left is magic.
KWS knows his Uni-Vibes! I got mine for $150 in 1987 when no one cared about old pedals. Kenny is right...they are huge signal suckers. Mine doesn’t go anywhere near as fast as that one on the left, but I never use the fastest setting.
Very reconizable, sitting on the floor with friends lovingly talking about gear haha awesome, thanks.
What a duo...KWS and Uncle Larry...YES!
gnarly goodness! Love the oldie!
This is like my class, we compare mics, preamps, etc. Good to see it never gets old!
I own two vintage ones and many clones. Can‘t have enough of them 😅
Two guitar heroes messing around with some premium vintage gear...who wants to watch that? Lol, thanks Tommy!
My mind has been Vibed. Thanks Guys...
Wow, how fun is that! Great sounds out of all of those really.
Love this!
Kenny is a killer guitar slinger. Univibe heaven there, awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Whoaaaaaa 2 legends in the house! Love it
i want that 4 x 10 bassman. best amp ever made.
A ringside seat as a coupla masters talk Tools of the Trade. Yes, please.
Saw KWS post the pic of the 3 vibes on Instagram and thought, “ I bet those sound cool. Wish I could hear them.” So I switch over to RUclips and this is the first video to pop up on my feed. Man, sometimes the planets just align. Thanks for the bts look at the crazy world of guitar nerdery.
Yep!
Man what a cool video and a great way to wake up and have your morning coffee to on a day off. KWS, Uncle Larry, 3 original Univibes in one room. How cool is that? Can't wait to hear that track.
Kenny is killer man
"SECURITY--We got Uncle Larry messing with everyone's Univibes again...what's that? No, only one sounds good....that's what he said."
Crazy how different that low end comes across , wow!!!
Tom here, Kenny here welcome to “suck it, That Pedal Show”
3 of those in one room - WOW
Paul Simon played through 8x10 Marshall Cabs? Never knew that.
Hahaaaaaaa
I could do that shit the rest of my life, and never get bored.
In terms of a career that requires a lot of crawling around on the floor, musicians probably rank second only to carpet installers. But this is way cooler than a retro rug.
Love gear and really miss my old big studio days. The older one kills!
The Golden Fleece !!!! 🌊🌊🌊
Two of my favs. Way to go Larry!
KWS - one of my favorite artists! We’ve seen him live 4X!
KWS was a key influence that got me hooked on guitar... many, many moons ago. Now you are showing me a new level musicianship that I didn’t think was possible on guitar. So cool to see you two in the same room. Thanks for sharing🙏
How fast did Uncle Larry open the Reverb app to look for an older model after this??
Cool! I'm totally immersed in Uni-Vibe lately. Trying out all different pedals.
Nice to hear different originals and getting the backstory, as well.
Nice work Uncle Larry
I ultimately chose the JHS Unicorn bc of the tap tempo.
Sounds great to.
@@mattjoe1982 I love Josh Scott's vids and have a couple of cool pedals of his including Black Box. I am not always pro tap tempo. Things can be confusing when introducing it. I like tap tempo on my DD-8 but like to limit it to that
How are your thumbs Tom. All that description typing had to be murder on your thumbs bro. Thanks Kenny Wayne for being a special guest on vintage gear day in class. And the fact that Uncle Larry has a uni-vibe is not lost on me 😎
So cool. Looking forward to hearing these tracks. She picked a Bad ass song! Cant wait to see what you guys did with it. Def right up KWS alley. (Not that anything isnt haha) I await its release, until then I sigh.
bro!!!!!!! the search for the perfect univibe never ends. once you hear and feel that throbiness there aint no coming back. I've gone through some bad bad vintage ones (you know vintage doesn't always mean good). Sweets, Sabbadius, Kings, Sir Henry, etc.........finally found mine. For me it's the God Vibe
The God Vibe is absolutely incredible. I agree with you on that one. It’s probably the best vibe I’ve ever heard besides the originals. The originals seem to have this thing going on when you speed them up. I would hear Hendrix do it all the time. Step on that Uni-Vibe pedal and it would sound like going through a time warp.
The TITLE lol. This rules
Kenny with your signature strat
That is awesome!
Bridge of Sighs. KWS and Uncle Larry. Can't wait to hear it.
Man, this is too cool for me Uncle Larry.
You know it's gonna be a good video when it starts with an Uncle Larry plumber crack shot!
always bringing the REAL my friend
So good! KWS & Tom messing with 3 vintage Univibes ! .. wonder what that song could be .. 🤔..😀
A great lesson in parts tolerances! Very cool!
Mark Risch says "I worked for Robin as his tech in 2000 and 2001. He was a gentlemen and a phenomenal guitarist. Really cared about his tone. Bought him a '71 JMP 100 that ripped. 119 shows 10 feet away from him and i still couldn't figure out what he was doing..."
Sweet! I was waiting for some Machine Gun, Band of Gypsys!
Thanks for the upload!
Fun fact ; that old Uni Vibe (the best sounding one) was Hendrix's! So COOL TOM! thanks for sharing these great moments :)
Another fun fact, Kenny is such a badass he had it on his touring board around the Trouble Is record.
All I can do is Sigh at the thought of a great Bridge song!
They sounds diferent....its crazy...
Man, wanna throw my Fulltone Deja Vibe in the lake after hearing that old unit!
Oh God Yess.... Ain't Nothin Like The Real Thing Babay.. The Late 60's into The Early 70's Units... There The F**king Holy Grail Man ☺☺😎💪💪👊💯💯💖 Thanks for This Amazing Upload My Good Brothas ☺☺😎💯💯 (And Yess Let's Go Back to The Good One.. Lol ☺☺😎)
..And The Pedal Speed Deal.. Different Potentiometer K Ohm Value... God.. I Would Love if You Could Share The Schematic on The (Good One..Lol) With Me... I'm Still Trying to Findout What The ECR's Were From The Mid/Late 60's Units to The Mid/Late 70's Units.. I Would Be So Greatly Appreciative My Good Brotha ☺☺😎💯💯💖
Lookin like two big kids in a candy store 😂
Nice. Uni vibes and KWS!
Big difference in sound and wonderfulness. Man, all the gear I have parted with over the decades. I still have a couple of Dallas and Maestro Fuzztones. I have a rack mount Deja Vibe from the 90s serial number 0002, Michael Landau has serial number 0001
I felt an urge to connect the three in a cascade just because.
I saw @kws s post on Instagram. Had no idea he was hanging with Uncle Larry. Very cool!
I hope that song is the one that I think it is, that's gonna be Awesome!
Gear geek out...love it. KWS said it, the internal component values can make a big difference in sound.
That was amazing, but I suppose not that surprising for such old components and all the variances of the builds back then.
Its nice to know there are other people out there who are OCD about pedals and how they sound....I feel normal now.
Calling Josh Scott... He'll love this.
So, the obvious good one is pretty beat. The other 2 look clean. Odds are pretty high it's been the good one from the day it left the bench, and has been used as a result. On the other hand, electronics age differently with use. Maybe they all sounded great initially, and the passage of time in a closet has negatively affected the lesser 2... $10k of Univibe,, KWS, Little Tommy, Ann Wilson and a Bridge of some sort... that should sound amazing.
Good grief if it sounds this amazing on iPhone Speakers I can’t imagine what it sounds like in person!
I got one of those from the 60’s. Seriously amazing pedal. I treat it like a valuable fragile antique. Got it from a guy who has a studio in his backyard. Would sell but only local - it’s too sweet to destroy by courier, lol.
KWS on the show! That is amazing!!!
Tom, in the manual for my Captain Coconut 2 (which has the best sounding Univibe clone I’ve personally heard), it says:
CENTER - Controls the center of the sweep. You can dial in the exact amount of "off-center" wobble, which is something that makes this effect unique. On the original Uni-Vibe this parameter was available only as a trim pot located on the circuit board. This means that whatever setting it was left on would determine how the vibe sounded. Of course, this setting varied from unit to unit. One might sound bright, one might sound dark, and it was all due to that darned internal adjustment.
Maybe your Univibe can be adjusted via the internal trimmer?
Amazing.
