About the FORMULA B Vintage Vibe Mk2

The Formula B Vintage Vibe Mk2 is a superb homage to the original "Leslie-in-a-pedal", the Uni-Vibe. It's one of those memorable and highly addictive effects, up there with fuzz in terms of the character it endows songs with.

Most famously used by Jimi Hendrix during his Woodstock set and live Band Of Gypsys album, as well as by David Gilmour on Pink Floyd tracks such as "Breathe", and Robin Trower on his Bridge Of Sighs album, the Uni-Vibe is all over late-1960s and early '70s rock.

New additions for 2024 include a small "Bypass" LED above the left footswitch, while the larger "Tempo" LED in the centre now blinks even when the effect is bypassed, to visibly display the speed of the vibrato or chorus effect.

The enclosure has also been redesigned with a flattering textured matt grey/black finish which now matches the Fuzz Rangers, for those of you who want their pedalboards looking at their best!

And new for 2025, the Vintage Vibe now features top-mounted jacks for all you guitarists out there looking to squeeze this awesome vibe pedal in amongst the other pedals on your pedalboard!

Vintage Vibe Mk2 Components

The Formula B Vintage Vibe Mk2 sounds phenomenal with its fully discrete, analogue signal path. Made with original THT BC549 and 2Sc1815 transistors and quality photoresistors, plus an internal voltage doubler giving 18V of power from a 9V supply, this is capable of achieving seriously chewy, organic chorus and vibrato effects with plenty of headroom.

Vintage Vibe Mk2 Controls

Like the original Uni-Vibe, the Formula B Vintage Vibe Mk2 has a Volume control that allows you to achieve unity gain with the rest of your setup. You can even use it to boost your amp or other pedals - there's plenty of volume gain on tap.

Chorus/Vibrato toggle

With the toggle in the Chorus position you get the full Uni-Vibe experience. With the toggle in the Vibrato position you effectively remove the dry signal for a warbly, classic vibrato sound (vibrato differs slightly to tremolo in that it adjusts the pitch of a note rather than the amplitude of the signal).

Dual footswitch

The dual-footswitch design allows you to switch Speed setting on-the-fly. A typical setup would be to use a slower Speed 1 setting for rhythm playing then kick in a faster Speed 2 setting for solos or accenting certain passages.
