Drive and Volume control set your level, Accent acts as a presence/high-end EQ, and Tone handles the midrange. Some of them feature two D-Style channels (at a cost!) while all offer top-notch tone, features and build quality, and a price tag as thick as the overdrive that made Dumble amps famous.Įven at an insane price tag, the Dumbloid is a total bargain compared to what it would cost to nab an actual Dumble. The sound and design of Dumble amps has inspired a huge range of in-depth pedals. The selections in this category feature recreation of the Overdrive channel, and some also of the Clean one. PLEASE NOTE: The pedals in these categories are organized by perceived popularity, based on internet reviews and sales data, so this is, by all means, a “Best of” list. We’ve divided the offerings by price range into categories for Super High End, High End, Middle and Low End.Ĭonsidering the variety of options, to facilitate navigation we decided to organize the D-Style pedals in these categories: Some are simple stompboxes that excel at one particular thing, while others are fully featured preamps with almost infinite tonal options. What’s more, some of these effects take the sound and features a step further and in interesting directions.
There is a great variety of pedals that can get you close to that sacred Dumble tone at a much more affordable price – and some cheaper options that do a decent job as well.

The latter “cascades” from the clean channel, adding a tube saturation circuit that causes the signal to become overdriven. The Overdrive Special is a tube amp with Clean and Overdrive channels. Dumble built a few amp models over the years, but the two most popular by far are, in order, the Overdrive Special and the Steel String Singer.
