A near mint, all original 1976 Univox Gimme. Shipped with Road Runner hard case. One of the smoothest playing electric guitars I’ve come across. Plays and feels exactly like a Gibson Les Paul of that era. Incredible tone, a super slim neck with perfectly low action. I’ve been drooling over this guitar since I got it.
Here is a 1976 Univox guitar called a Gimme. It is an MIJ Les Paul copy. When I originally did my research I found that the bodies were made of 3 pieces of Maple sandwiched together. It's been a really great guitar for me. I've also replaced the original pick ups and put in an aftermarket wiring ...
One name that comes to the mind of anyone who has looked at guitars hanging on racks is Univox, a name generally associated with the “copy era” of the ’70s. Univox was one of the first brands to make copies, and the brand achieved a fair amount of national visibility and distribution.
This MIJ Univox captures the essence of the 70s - this one is a higher end model as well, with the unique semi-covered pickups, full double body and neck binding, Van Ghent style tuners, and gold hardware. You'd be hard pressed to find a guitar with a higher dollar to mojo ratio!
The Gimme was another Les Paul copy. It had plastic covered humbuckers, tall gold knobs and an elevated pickguard. Available after 1976 in sunburst (1, 2) (U1986), natural (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 6) (U1988) (both were flametops), and also ebony black (1, 2, 3, 4) (U1987).
Imagine a guitar from a time not so long ago, a guitar created in a less litigious time...for your consideration, an "Single Cut" copy from the Lawsuit Era. This one was made by Matsumoku in Japan and carries the Univox headstock name. A lot of people (including Univox at the time) call these the "Gimme" Univox. This thing plays great.
