Another great vintage effect found its way through the doors of the Guitar Trader located here in beautiful Asheville, North Carolina.
Today we offer a Vintage Ibanez UE400 Multi-Effects unit with original footswitch. This was made in Japan in the early 80s. These were designed and manufactured by Maxon, a truly outstanding producer of effects to this day!
If you are looking at this, you probably are aware of these. But if you are not, these are classic analog rack units, amongst the best. When rack gear comes back into vogue, look for these to be re-issued. This is also the "good one," with the overdrive channel as opposed to a distortion channel.
-- The compression is very controllable and as transparent as you want it to be.
-- The phaser sounds great, very warm and nice. I have never verified this, but I think it might be a twelve stage phaser. The Japan phasers rule supreme.
-- The overdrive is great. it has a nice buttery tone, but can cook with gas and get fuzzy. It has been rumored that this is an original tube screamer circuit. I think that is a bit of a stretch. I have not taken this thing apart to see. This is not quite as "delicate" as an old tube screamer, but doesn't sound cr@#py like the models that have the "distortion" channel.
-- The stereo chorus/flanger channel is just plain warm and lush. These are tones that Maxon Japan reign supreme on as well, right there with Boss Japan.
-- The original footswitch is fantastic. Heavy duty and it can be set to be used in a number of different ways.
