60s Vintage Kay Univox pre-Effector single cut Les Paul style guitar
I’m sure there’s someone out in “Internet Land” who will recognise this model. I’ve spent hours researching it and come up blank. So… Here goes with a simple description.
I have to say that I’m happy to keep it in my collection as it’s very unusual and has some effects a bit like a cut-down version of the Univox / Kay Effector only without as many switches. It has a 9v Battery compartment in the back which is similar to the Effector. This runs some electrical wizardry.
The vintage Kay Univox Effector was a rip-off of the Gibson Les Paul Recording
Here are the areas that are similar to the Univox / Kay Effector:
- Headstock is bound and has the same diamond logo
- The tuners are the same as early models
- The neck is also bound and has Pearloid block markers (The second block marker appears to be a replacement)
- The pickups are the same as early models. They also have the same black pickup surrounds.
- The bridge arrangement
- The body binding (top and bottom) together with the purfling
- It’s a Single Cut, Les Paul style, Solid Body
- The 9v battery compartment
- The panel is less complex
