The Vertex Steel String Clean Drive was voiced after the legendary Dumble Steel String Singer, apparently, the reference unit they had was serial #1. It features just three controls – Gain, Filter (tone) and Volume. It sounds killer with lap-steel guitar. Released in 2020, the MkII version adds a toggle…Click on the title for more

2021 UPDATE: The 20 Best Dumble Pedals (or D-Style Overdrives)

The Overdrive Special is a tube amp with Clean and Overdrive channels. The latter "cascades" from the clean channel, adding a tube saturation circuit that causes the signal to become overdriven.

Hermida Audio Zendrive Overdrive

The Hermida Audio Zendrive is one of the first Dumble-style pedals and it's still very well regarded. The compressed-but-not-too-squashed tone of a real Dumble is there, as well as the thick overdrive sounds. The company recently released a V2, which features high voltage FET technology that clones the Tung-Sol 12AX7…Click on the title for more

Founded by two German rock guitarists (Matt, the stoner, and Pete, the punk rocker), Demon Pedals specializes in gain designs with Eastern names and graphics.
