Univox Uni-Tron 5 Envelope Follower Pedal

The Univox Uni-Tron 5 is an envelope follower guitar effects pedal.  Not a very compact design.  Since this was an older pedal and utilized old school electronics construction, it measured about 10 inches long by 6 inches wide and had a sheet metal housing!  The pedal produced wah-wah like sounds.  It sounded pretty cool filtering a bass guitar.  I do remember it being a very noisy pedal.  A lot of hum accompanied your output which had to be addressed.

Dean 12 String Bass Guitar

Dean 12 String MONSTER!



I owned this Dean 12 string bass for about a year.  I found it simply too difficult to play and sold it on eBay.  It is otherwise a noise monster.  This instrument is thoroughly capable of creating walls of sound and suitably dense sonic textures.  I do miss it and have often thought of getting another.  But probably won't.    

My son and his first guitar.  This was actually my second 12 string bass. 

The first one was actually stolen and insurance paid for this replacement.
The Dean was actually a better instrument.
