Fun Fact, the New Ginger Fuzz pedal has two slightly different mascots which means it specifically is like a blind box. The yellow ginger dude on the front will randomly be one of the two designs.

I wish budget pedal makers would follow this company's example and invest on better graphics. It makes a pedal look way less cheap. And I agree with you 100% percent, if 2 pedals sound similar enough I'm picking the better looking one

At about 12:30 or so, I tried to buy the Univibe pedal, which was already sold out. At least I'm on the re-stock list. It is great to see a new circuit in the Afford-a-board world. Keep up the great work, Ryan.

[@craigbrown9987]

On the Vibe, drop the speed to zero and crank the depth, that's what Gilmore and Hendrix did with theirs. I have a TC univibe, and it's an immense piece of kit.

I was just looking at that axe on the Harley Benton site. Those are Artec pickups an that rang a bell. Amazon carries the single coil type. The Artec Alnico 5 single coil soapbars.

[@DGGriffinMusic]

The Mosky Golden Horse and Caline Pure Sky are probably two of the most popular budget ODs. Maybe do a poll to create a top 5 to shoot out?

[@PedalPlayhouse]

These are adorable and sound great! That vibe one really sounds unique. They all sound fun actually

[@tymime]

I feel like the Univibe doesn't quite nail that squishy, wah-like Hendrix sound, but it still sounds very good

[@-jank-willson]

Because it is more of a pitch vibrato/phaser-based vibrato, than a true univibe. A true vibe has the optical spinny thing in it, which are quite expensive. Many cheap 'vibes' are just phasers that have been shaped to sound like a 'vibrato'/'chorus' What this pedal DOES have that I am super interested in, is the 'rotary' setting which is a harmonic tremolo. The cheapest harmonic tremolo before this pedal came out was the $99 JHS 3-series harmonic trem.

[@robertlathan4639]

Keep them all on the board you have plenty of room!! Plus no seller remorse!! Love you brother!!!

[@deztruct0823]

[@LarsonGuitarPlayer]

I liked the reverb into tremolo sound. And the self oscillating sounds of the delay.

[@ryangilby]

I’m one who loves whenever there’s a spaceship noises delay (not sure if that makes me majority or minority) but I’d also like to see how you use delays in a band context.

[@weedyguitarstudio1715]

Super cool missed the stream from what I can tell affordable pedals are fine that's basically all I have ever been able to buy lol

Nice collection. Lots of bang for the buck and the artwork is perfect and funny. Really creamy vibe 3-way dingus too.

[@mykhedelic6471]

The iSet Flanger sounds great and just Gets. It. Done. But this pedal also has something to offer. I'd ditch something else, I have such loyalty to that Flanger, I own 2.

[@TranscendentBen]

"I've had emulations of Univibe..." it's funny because Univbe was an attempt at emulating a Leslie speaker, and like so many other artificial things it became its own thing with its own sound. But now we have the afford-a-vibe!

[@-jank-willson]

Not a true univibe, it is a pitch vibrato. But still a unique sound in it's own right. Also has a harmonic-tremolo esque thing and a vibe 'chorus' esque thing built in Imagine playing 'come as you are' with this thing. Or black hole sun.

@@daviddigital6887 I don't like the multi modulation pedals because they are all digital, and the cheaper ones (which are the only ones I can afford) have a lot of artifacts I don't like. If you know of a multi modulation pedal that is purely analogue, please let me know!

I love how wooly that Ginger Fuzz got.

[@ascw1991]

That Butter Roll is a must have. Love the sound of it, very unique

[@fuckgoogle8661]

I got 8 recently and that one was among them but my favorite was definitely the red sandwich muff pedal, the vibe was just ok, most disappointing was the tremolo it showed up not working and on that day it arrived I sent an email to effects bakery saying to them that the tremolo was doa and they sent back a response about how happy they were to get back customer response and just ignored that I told them the pedal didn’t work and nothing since. Basically a big F-you to the customer so while I didn’t get a bad pedal from them of the 7 that worked. I doubt I’ll buy anything from them again. A friends kid likes fiddling w/ things and liked the pedal enclosure so I just gave it to him but basically that tremolo was a colorful $50 paperweight.

[@OfficialDroidRevenge]

Man, their website… I am in awe.

[@drystorage4789]

These pedals sound great stacked together. I could just have an Effect Bakery board with maybe my Joyo tauren added to it for a really good budget board🤘🏻

[@rindred]

I don't know what Harley Benton is using for pickups in that guitar, but GuitarFetish has the Soapbar 180 humbucker, which looks to be a near analogue. It's Kwikplug and coil-splitable. And, hey, they're doing a St. Patty's Day sale right now...

[@60CycleHumcast]

I bet the shipping costs more than the pickups.

[@rindred]

@@60CycleHumcast You may be right, considering it has to go coast-to-coast to get to you. This is why when doing a project where I'm planning to use GFS parts, I buy everything at once so I only pay one shipping fee.

@@60CycleHumcasthey Ryan have you checked out the HB baritone version of that guitar? That’s tempting me.

[@EasyHeat]

OMG these are soo freakin' cool!! I love the art design. Thanks Ryan!

[@mykhedelic6471]

The tremolo replacement was a good choice. You just need a slightly bigger board, an octaver is a useful thing and that vibe is also useful but my baby the iSet Flanger just has to be there ripping space.

[@-jank-willson]

The pedal has 3 settings on it; the 'rotary' (harmonic tremolo) effect, which can replace a regular tremolo; a pitch/phaser vibrato, which can (kinda) replace a regular vibrato; and the univibe setting which is a new addition to the afford-a-board.

[@-jank-willson]

an octave down into an octave up or vice-versa is an interesting effect as well Also do you know of a cheaper flanger that doesn't do that in-and-out effect? Like a stationary jet engine as opposed to one that is flying overhead (giving the dopplar effect). I like the 'whine' of a flanger but I don't like the 'in-and-out' dopplar effect of flangers. Maybe there is one with an expression pedal that i can just keep at one position the whole time?

[@SlyHikari03]

16:07 I can’t not think of Knobs when I hear this chord. Also, Japan makes some neat stuff, BOSS, Ibanez and now this.. Nice.

at last a tremolo with volume knob! from the afford a board series.

[@stuartchapman5171]

That vibe is great, I've been looking to buy one for a while now. Is it analogue? I'm not an analogue only tone snob, my experience of budget pedals is that if there's an analogue option, it's less likely to give that nasty digital clipping. I went with your Mosky reverb selection, for when I want that vintage guitar tone, it's good for what it is, but I can't use it for my regular feedback and noise stuff, because it will clip, in that unusable digital way if pushed. You really have to spend a bit to get a decent sounding reverb. Also you can get a great sounding, multi option digital delay for less bucks than a reverb, but if you hit it hard, fm static time.

[@tymime]

I've said it before, but there's some up and coming band that'll gain a cult following that uses cheap pedals like these and make them really desirable for their not-quite-perfect sounds Like, that clipping room reverb might become one of their signature sounds, you never know

[@retromacman620]

The reverb is benefiting most from the art. You got 10 bucks more and you might as well go JHS 3 series. It's unique and cute, though 😂

[@R3dbudd]

I can't live without Univibe. I have an expression pedal out of my Stomp dedicated to it. I also bought that Iset flanger and it's great, but only in front cause of that volume cut. And also anybody lemme know if the current Cuvave fuzz works like the one he has. I don't wanna order a non gated one.

[@mikedr1549]

Honestly - those sound as good or better than any of the other $50 pedals out there. You could run with all of these for any local bar gig. I just picked up the univibe to play around with. Thanks!!

[@CrixGringo]

Yeah, you played the Smith's and Ska.

[@isitreallyisitreally1756]

Great demo as ever but why do most reviewers use pedals to extreme settings , all on , fastest speeds , deepest depths , rather than where most gigging settings are more subtle or less crazy .

[@chuckplainview4085]

Tremolo with a volume is always going to be good regardless of brand for me. Automatic win. Just bought tone city tremble and really like it, very similar to this one.

[@JTakasa]

I was hoping you'd run the double mod. I find myself kicking on a slow phaser and chorus almost every week. I'm a fan!

[@aphaiknaime5920]

I know it’s not a true photocell univibe but the voicing they got is honestly really close, minus some low end. I’m gonna try running my Butter Roll with a Phase 95 and see how much closer I can get. The 95 also has less low end than its predecessors but the 45 side sounds pretty vibey and EQ pedals can also get you pretty far. Also I’d try the Butter Roll before the Cuvave fuzz, vibe before dirt almost always sounds better

[@johnosborne4404]

No shame in my afford a board. Only "real pedals" I got is a green russian muff and a vox wah which I never ever use. The rest is all donner, mosky and behringer. Got a danelectro pedal in there too 😎

Dude, the univibe pedal is so, so great. Especially at thjs price point. I always judge univibe against the Danelectro Chicken Salad and this one gets so close to what that beauty can do. Maybe even more diversity of sound, although not quite the richness. Definitely put this on the board. Swap it out for any chorus you have. Wow. I’ll probably buy this to goof around with and add to my 10-yr-old son’s board (the Hamilton afford-a-board). Thanks for showing this to us!

[@-jank-willson]

[@-jank-willson]

You can also swap it for a tremolo as well, since it has the harmonic tremolo setting that is supposed to replicate the Leslie. Remember, the $99 JHS harmonic tremolo is only harmonic trem and regular trem. This is half the price, and you get vibe sounds as well

[@60CycleHumcast]

@@-jank-willson what pedal would you recommend as decent benchmark for a true univibe? I’m not talking about $$$$ vintage units, something accessibly priced and in production. I’m thinking about getting something as a point of comparison for a future afforda vibe video

[@-jank-willson]

@@60CycleHumcast Not sure TBH. Many great univibe clones for around 80$ and up. But $80 is a little too much for afford-a-board. JHS mentioned in their video about univibes that a 'true' univibe has the spinny photo sensor thing built into the circuit (that looks like a mini fidget spinner, remember those things?). That spinny thing is what makes univibes cost more, and what makes them physically larger usually. But honestly, this pedal does a pretty good replica of it with the pitch modulation, and while it may not be 100% accurate, it creates its own unique sound, just like the original univibe was trying to re-create a leslie, but ended up making a unique sound instead! Also this pedal has the harmonic trem setting on it (the 'rotary' setting) to more accurately re-create the leslie, which is nice because the cheapest harmonic trem before this pedal came out, was the JHS 3-series harmonic trem for $99. I am on the waiting list to get one! (on their site it is the only pedal that is sold out, probably because of this review!) *E D I T* On second thought, I think the 'vibe' setting is a real univibe, or at least sounds like it (maybe the pedal is digital and it is emulating the sound of a univibe?), whereas the 'vibrato' setting is the pitch vibrato I mentioned before...

[@mjdbruyn]
