Following the success of their first DIY pedal kit, NOTAKLON, JHS Pedals is launching its second build-it-yourself project—this time inspired by the legendary Dumble amplifier: the JHS NOTADÜMBLË. Known for its ultra-rare, highly sought-after tone, the Dumble sound has been famously used by artists like Santana, John Mayer, and Eric Johnson.
The D-Style Overdrive Kit offers two distinct modes via a simple slider switch:
- Clean Mode (slider down) acts as a powerful preamp buffer, replicating the clarity of the original amp. Here the Input control adjusts treble and input gain attenuation.
- Drive Mode (slider up) delivers singing, violin-like distortion. Here, the Drive knob adjusts overdrive intensity while the EQ acts as a low-pass filter.
An internal Presence trim pot fine-tunes upper-mid/treble frequencies in the gain stage.
Designed for accessibility, the kit requires no soldering and includes straightforward instructions, making it a great option for both beginners and experienced builders. Whether you’re chasing iconic tones or just want the satisfaction of assembling your own pedal, this kit brings a piece of amp history within reach—without the six-figure price tag.
