I've never had the opportunity to play through a Dumble. So, I can understand the logic behind why you would prefer it over a Fender. Maybe one day I'll get lucky enough to try one out.I agree that it doesnt sound phenomenal, but for me the dumble has always been about the way it feels to play. if it was a choice between that and an identical sounding fender im taking the dumble because it feels...idk just better to play haha

A Dumble just feels lively in your hands.
I used to own a Fuchs Lucky 7 combo amp that behaved the same exact way that you're describing. That was a great little amp.That liveliness reveals the nuances (and flaws) in your playing. That's why dynamic, nuanced players like them so much. Subtle differences in picking and fretting really stand out.
Dumble players tend to be light pickers, because that gets you down into the middle of the amp's huge dynamic range. If you're banging out power chords or chugs, any decent amp will do. But when you pick lightly, and only hit hard to make a point, you can make the amp do all kinds of tricks, and you start to appreciate its Lamborghini-like response to the throttle, steering wheel and brakes.
