Vintage Univox / Kay Effector Guitar

[@thesoupdragonat121]

Great demo! I have two Kay Effectors and never tire of playing with the switching 'options'. I've looked under the scratchplate and marveled at the skill of the designer and the folk on the workbench who had to solder the components together. One day these will be rare classics.

Gotta love those guitars! I have one myself. Yes, the fuzz is cool! Great vid! Thanks

[@thezerofret8046]

[@marksibley8188]

@@thezerofret8046 It's a one of a kind that's for sure. Do you still have it, mate?

[@zenobibonsai]

i got mine in 1980 i was 15 im 54 i still play it some because its a great medal guitar and man can you play with some feedback with the speed knob like a crazy medal violin, nice job by the by brother on the review

Any chance for a peek at the guts? I wanna make that distortion in a pedal. I'm pretty certain the modulation effects are from a unijunction transistor

There's another vid with the guts exposed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4jXf32Xmsx8gsU

What is that wicked looking amp? It looks like a 70s hifi set, very cool

[@thezerofret8046]

That is a 70’s HH Electronics IC100 - it’s a great solid state amp!

[@officialdirtmcgurt]

THE ZERO FRET Thanks mate. On the hunt for one now. Some SS amps are killer like the sunn colliseum or the one marc bolan used

[@marcraygun6290]

Hh are great use 50w combo myself

I have this guitar. Nice video, thanks for posting. The effects work when I push in the jack and connect it to the headphone socket on the guitar when pushed in half way and connecting it to my amp. But the effects don’t work when I push the jack into the amp socket on the guitar and connecting it to the amp, weird but unsure why this is. Would you have any ideas how to fix this, as you’ve messed with these?

what did you end up selling this for??
