Members calbert Posted February 15, 2006 Members Share Posted February 15, 2006 I know you can't get it exactly... but are there any pedals out there that do a pretty good job of giving you the tone and feel of the Dumble Overdrive Special amp? I understand that Larry Carlton used to gets his liquid lead tones from this amp. Carlos Santana (a long time Boogie amp user) said he switched to the Dumble because it got him 'that sound' more easily. This is the one pedal I know of (any better ones?):Hao RM1 Rumble Mod Overdrive Pedal Dumble Thanks, Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ZJD Posted February 15, 2006 Members Share Posted February 15, 2006 This has been desribed as a "Dumble" sounding pedal, but I've never tried it so don't take me word for it. Here's a vid demo of it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members threm Posted February 15, 2006 Members Share Posted February 15, 2006 I believe there are more folks looking for the Dumble tone on the Gear Page and Musictoyz forums. Do a search there. Some think the Zendrive does the D thing. Howie vs Rumble Mod has been discussed etc.http://www.thegearpage.net/board/forumdisplay.php?forumid=4http://musictoyz.infopop.cc/eve/ubb.x?a=frm&s=6476029571&f=4066066091 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Picassochild Posted February 16, 2006 Members Share Posted February 16, 2006 D*A*M Sonic Titan. The JFET section is based upon the input section of the '70's Overdrive Dumble amp heads. It's not voiced like one as such just it uses the same idea for retaining very good clarity and string definition at high drive levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mightyquinn Posted February 16, 2006 Members Share Posted February 16, 2006 I recently built an ODS preamp into an 18watt EL84 power section. While it isn't a dumbl, it is close enough that I can say I don't think any pedal is going to get you there. Way too many variables happening. You may find some great pedals, and they may have qualities that are dumble like, but there is no way to take the place of tubes and high voltage. That being said, if you want to try to find it in a pedal, the zendrive is likely a good place to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Kelly Posted February 16, 2006 Members Share Posted February 16, 2006 Go try a Fuchs amp. I THOUGHT the SRV/ Ford tone was a TS>Fender sound until I plugged into an ODS. There is no comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mightyquinn Posted February 17, 2006 Members Share Posted February 17, 2006 TS into a fender amp. That's all it is man. That is incorrect. There is no TS in the curcuit at all. The FET input crap is NOT a TS. It may have a foot in fenderland but it is much more than a TS into a twin. No matter what though, it is the Indian, not the arrow, that makes the difference.

Members mightyquinn Posted February 17, 2006 Members Share Posted February 17, 2006 what the h*ll does that have to do with anything? It means that it is the human factor, not the gear, that makes magic. In other words practice is more important than what amp you can afford.
