sick, is that based on real UV chassis dimensions?

Job well done! High "like" factor. Compliments!

Wow, looks really cool! Looks nice without paintin the chassis too. I'm planning to do also a proper clone including as close to a clone of the chassis as i will be able to get, including the louvers in the back of the chassis (that should be a PITA to make).
Is there any hope for some sound clips?

Thank you for appreciating my work. This is not an exact copy of Univibe, this is "my reissues":). All dimensions are approximated by photo. Now I do not have time to finish the project and record the sound:(

HI, I'm David from ARGENTINA (Buenos Aires). Where R U from?
It's a Coincidence but I'm making a replica of a UniVibe too.
At the same time and phase of my production I found your proyect is in the same phase.
I've got a lot of originals 2SC828 (q) (r) (s) (t) and other 828A (all made by Matsushita 70's production) and 2SC539 (same manufacturer)
The only thing that I can't find is the F---N' Switch! I know is a MIYAMA DS-015 but is discontinued.
I recommend to take care with chinese sellers because what they offer are fake.
Did you find the switch?
I think people from fatguitar (Japanese company that reproduces y sell Heaven's Vibe) may be bougth all the Miyama DS-015 Stock to be the only manufacturer that have the sw.

DAVE.-

On holidays I spent some time in my friend garage and almost finished my Univibe project. I made my own enclosure from sheet polished stainless steel and decided not paint it. Now i need only proper vibrato/chorus switch, fuse and lamp. While the parcel has not arrived, speed control and simple switch in their places.
*sorry for that gold chicken head

This one made by Miyama http://www.banzaimusic.com/Footswitch-MIYM-10.htmlDid you find the switch?
Maybe it's what you need, but I myself have used another contact switch looks like this

Sinner thanks for all the great work you've done, your website is a REAL GOLD MINE
I always wanted to build an univibe with the real pcb!
I am going to do it this month but before buying all the components I've got a few questions.
-according to you folks what is the best replacement diode for the 3 rare SM150?i was thinking of 1n4148 or 1n914 like the forum vibe?
-ive got some 2s828 transistor , but according to you folks for Q1 a good replacement is 2n5088?
-for the transformer, a 20/22 v will do the job, but what about the ma rating?
Sorry for all these questions, usually when i'm building pedals, i always try to finds the answers by myself,
swapp the componements ect . But i'am actually in Australia, and its a pain in the ass to find parts there,
i dont want to wait another mounth because of a 0,10 bucks part

2. BC109C should do the job, too. pinout is important here
3 I think usually 150ma is enough for vibe, but I'm not sure...

Hi everybody! Welcome to the UniVibe Show,
Here is the ultimate step of my Shin-ei replica...
You would see some variations and mods I explain in next post.
The cream chicken head is only for picture. The corrects are in black with the knob line in glow green (like clock watches)
Speed control in panel, and... for the Fu_ _ _ ng Miyama switch DS015, that is discontinued and impossible to obtain I will place a pair of VSD caps and leds (to indicate Chorus / Vibrato modes) with a Nkk DSDP
Enjoy it! And have a great weekend!

Sorry for blasphemy, but what's the best way to add LED rate indicator? I've seen that madbean was taking voltage from R44 to ground. Some folks suggest to pul LED in series with bulb. Don't think it's a good idea.
I'm planning to use CANCEL as bypass, so it'd be good if both work together properly.

Hi fakcior,
How R U?
I'm Dave from Buenos Aires ARG. I'm new in the forum... I'm who place the nice pictures of a replica UV.
I'm plannig to do the same mod you wish (the rate indicator.)
I see there are many ways to do that... I'm not design the correct circuit yet but, a nice way to make it is to put another LDR on the top and center of the aluminium box (Light Shield) -first you have tu drill it) and then paste it with a little of epoxy cement.
Now you can use some point of the power supply to draw some DC voltage with a LED in serie (may be a Zener or a resistor divider to limit led maximun voltage)
I'm very very shure that is incorrect to touch any other point of the circuit. Specially the lamp driver... I have seen many wrong mods (on the lamp driver) that works! But this changes the correct intensity and functionality of the LFO (Low Frecuency Oscilator)
So I recomend to develope some easy circuit without touching the original.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
DAVE.-

I think that connecting it somewhere in circuit is a good way. Supra-Vibe has it and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have extra LDR for rate LED like in some other boutique builds. In addition Castledine possibly used mentioned technique with connecting it parallel to Cancel switch - check guts, wires from cancel and rate LED are connected to PCB very close to each other. I've written email to Stuart, maybe he'll give away his way of implementing this feature.
