Robin’s tone comes from a Fulltone Deja-Vibe, a modern take on the Uni-Vibe, a Fulltone OCD and a Robin Trower OD into a Marshall. He also has a wah that was made special for him by Fulltone.

Couple of other pedals as well

His Custom Shop signature Strat isn’t anything special even though it has a price tag of $3600 (last time that I checked)

There are other videos of his rig available but these are 2 of better one

The Robin Trower OD may give him the same effect as a fuzz pedal, or the combo of that with the OCD

I bought a BBE Soul Vibe pedal that is patterned after the original Uni-Vibe. There is a video of Paul Gagnon, main engineer for BBE, and he goes into detail of buying several of the original Uni-Vibe pedal and they found the strong & weak points of the original design. The end result is the BBE Soul Vibe. Look at the list of components and its easy to see that BBE pedal are built to last

His pickupss are specific but I don’t find them to be anything special – not custom wound to some specific induction. I do find his use of a flat fingerboard interesting.

All that being said, I just don’t see the price tag being as high as it is.

Did you know that Fender is also selling wine now? One thing that pushed me toward G&L was that Fender Musical Corp. is such a mass marketing conglomerate that has nothing to do with Leo’s vision. Yes, they make good guitars but if they can save a buck by using Part X instead of Part Y, they will do it. I starting to see reviews that the quality of both Fender & Gibson guitars are starting to slip. Hope they get it under control if the reviews are true

OK, its Good Friday so that’s enough of my rant that had nothing to do with Robin Trower
