    How to get this D-style tone out of any of the Dumble models in AXE?

    The clean boost or filter trick is great... as far as fet goes it would be like another gain stage.. or adding some jangle to the sound. I owned a High plains drifter for awhile so thats where I messed with the Fet. I was more after the SSS sound vs ODSR but I arrived at it another way...

    How to get this D-style tone out of any of the Dumble models in AXE?

    Here is a clone taken from 183 the owner who had the real 183 wanted the amps to do that sound they both did so he was pleased and sold the 183. The other clones 2 went to Texas one sitting here. The difference in those and mine being mine has the recent D verb which was voiced on #60 a...
