Can't view this on my ipad to see if it's the right one, but listen to the feedback on this recording:As a side note. Every Dumble amp was tuned to the users needs substantially from what I've read which means that not two are equal. The Steel String Slinger type was a high wattage clean amp. The ODS is the gainy one. Two completely different amps. There are different tone stacks for different eras.
Anyone interested can sign up at the ampgarage.com and read/lurk/learn.
Ive read that at least some of the models are very "feedbackfriendly" even at low gain levels. To a point where its hard to controll.
Will be fun to see how this nr 213 behaves!
I'll let you know when I receive it. I'm going to bring it over Chris Quigley's house and we'll make a video. He's going to play some death metal through it and then I'm going to play Mustang Sally and some really crappy blues licks. Then we'll post the video on TGP, LOL.
Thank you. My desire to get this amp is so I can model it and share it with the community.

Larry Carlton - Emotions wound us so (live Last Nite album) - YouTube
It brings me to tears every time.
If the link doesn't work: search "Emotions wound us so" from Larry Carlton's "last night live" album.
Spent many an hour trying to get near that on my Ultra. I guess I'll wait a bit before starting on the II.
The ODS varied a lot over the years...tone stack, plate etc...and who the amp was designed for. There is no single Dumble tone. But chances are whatever he got, it will sound pretty good. ;-)
This is spot on.
For example, I have heard Larry Carlton's Dumble and Robben Ford's Dumble several times, and they do not sound the same. There are interviews with the two where they said they tried each other's Dumble amps (tour in Japan) and Larry did not like Robben's and vice versa.
For the non-Dumble aficionados, what's so special about this particular amp?
Amen. I wish there was more than one vid of this on YouTube. This one is blocked for "mobile" devices. Larry starts playing quite late, so bear out the long keyboard intro. But when he does...This is really an emotional performance. I believe that this is what it's all about. Can you bear your soul through your guitar? If not, maybe we're not doing something wrong. Guys like Larry Carlton are masters at this...I aspire to be at this level and I think the Axe-FX can help me get there.
some guy is looking for $125k for one of these right now.
So is any Dumble you buy guaranteed to have been made for someone in the upper echelons on the guitar world? Did he only build for the players? Or were there builds for the average joes done too?
