Description
Shin’s FET Dumbloid captures the overdrive channel of a Dumble-style amplifier beautifully, and adds in the FET Preamp.
Rather than functioning as a simple clean boost, the FET input acts as an active front-end preamp that propels overdrive tones.
More headroom, enhanced harmonics, tighter low end, increased articulation and pick attack and a more responsive feel are provided. Shin's recreated this circuit for pedalboard use, describing it as a clear, powerful FET booster that can be adjusted internally via a trim pot, just like the original amplifier's FET input stage. The FET Custom Preamp Drive combines the classic Dumbloid Overdrive and an independent FET Preamp. Functionality includes Overdrive only, FET only and FET into Overdrive options. Stacking the FET with the Overdrive is where this pedal really shines, because it pushes the drive section much like plugging into the FET input of a real Dumble amplifier.
Dumbloid Special
Standard Dumbloid model with true Dumble cascading gain. Silky-smooth, malleable and very touch sensitive overdrive.
Dumbloid Special BTM
Standard Dumbloid model with true Dumble cascading gain with a more robust low end.
Dumbloid 335 Special
Very similar to the Standard dumbloid special. The main difference is it dials out some of the fuzz in the upper mid range Very similar to Larry Carlton hence the 335.
Overdrive Dumbloid Special
This pedal takes the gain and low end one step further. Think hot-rodded Marshall HRM. Nice low end with tons of gain on tap.
