Apparently 'Owner of a lonely heart' by Yes was a heavily processed Dumble ODS. Also, unconfirmed, but I had heard that the 'Beat It' solo for Michael Jackson was an ODS, but this is fairly disputed.
Session player Jeff Watson bought my 100w Dumble head in the mid 80s and recorded 100s if not thousands of tracks with it. It's on many sound tracks for tv and films as well as famous albums.

Ride Like the Wind by Christopher Cross. He used a 1959 Les Paul Custom 2- pickup into his Dumble Overdrive Special with Marshall 4x12 loaded with 4 JBL D120s. Per interview with Rick Beato. A
Awww....thanks man! It was really more about the songs, we had originally planned to used Tim's Ceriatone OTS, but it blew a power tube right before we the session so we had to do a quick pivot.
I’m so stoked I just ordered the Vox Valvenergy Silk Drive (a Dumble o.d. with NuTube) to pair with my Origin Effects SlideRig (double 1176 compressors) for slide. Chasing the tone dragon my friends.
@@VertexEffectsInc Very underrated piece of gear, especially with the tube shortage issues we have. It acts as a standard O.D., and has a preamp mode to act as an amp that can go straight into the board, and a cab sim mode for recording. All 4 of them sound great. Seems up your alley my friend. Tone videos on TH-cam sold me on it. A battery powered all analog tube O.D. that doubles as a preamp? Hell yeah.
RIP Dr D , not all of us where lucky enough to own a dumble , i see more and more dumble in a box pedals - which i think is good , i like pedals. i wonder what he would have said about that , all the harmonix , are they truly able to thrive in the crystal lattuce of a solid state pedal design ? i wonder in a parallel universe , if Dr D made pedals instead , what those would be , i am guessing a tin hat 741 op amp with a pair of red 3mm clippers and a low end shaping control instead of a "tone", but all of that is silly . thanks for the videos , really enjoyable content here . i recently heard henry kaiser tell this great story about meeting the Doctor who was riding a moped at the time , man i wish i could have been a fly on that wall .
I went to see Lindley in 2010 when they were touring together after growing up listening to his El Rayo X albums, I didn’t know who Jackson Brown was. He still put on a great show in 2018-see him if you get the chance.
Thought the Jackson Brown stuff was common knowledge and I always think about him and Lindsey when I think of Dumble tracks. Otherwise had no idea about the others listed, great clip ❤️
Yep I play my 58 Les Paul through my Dumble. I only know the G C and D chords. But damn I’m cool. I always have them sitting out when I throw my parties in Beverly Hills, and my cool friends drool over them. 🤙🏽
Mason are you using a deluxe reverb as the baseline or canvas for voicing your pedals? In the video is that the 65 reissue? Or vintage? Tones in the video are very good.
Ah, improving the speaker really improves these Deluxes dramatically. Next step is a better output transformer if feel need for improving the low end more.
RIP Howard Dumble. Apparently he died yesterday. Weird coincidence I started looking up Dumble pedals today and heard the news. Not sure if it was Covid related.
Thanks for make the video. I think Jimmie Vaughan used a Dumble on a few songs with the Fabulous Thunderbirds. But I would really prefer if Vertex made a Super Reverb pedal that sounded very glassy because this is what SRV and Jimmie Vaughan used was Super Reverb amps with Ceramic Magnet Speakers. For some reason the Super Reverb amp is more glassy compared to other fender amps. I would try using the Vertex Dumble pedal and bypass the fender amps front end preamp and go direct into the Super Reverb effects return or Putting the Vertex Dumble pedal in the Super Reverbs effects loop to blend in the dumble clean overtones to mix with the fender super reverb preamp amp. What I do is put a compression side chain EQ pedal in the effect loop which sounds very dumble to me with my fender amp because its adding compression and side chain the EQ with the compression as well as I use the strats Middle pickup and roll down the volume back and it gives that Texas Flood midrange and Jimmie Vaughan tones
@@VertexEffectsInc yes I do. I think Jimmie Vaughan used dumble amps in the studio maybe for the fabulous thunderbirds band albums. You can see Jimmie Vaughan playing rhythm guitar with SRV from various live concerts using SRV SSS dumble amp with his strat middle pickup or telecaster guitar
@@VertexEffectsInc Listen to Jimmie Vaughan song Just Like Putty, this is his middle pickup volume rolled back fender super reverb or matchless amp four 10 inch speakers. The Vertex pedal SSS should have a way of creating glassy clean tones to really make the guitar sound very glassy. The four 10 inch speakers give the midrange and compression creating the glassy clean tones.
Rios is a flippin' genius. Such a tasty player. Also, I hoped "The Heat is On" would have been on the list. That's gotta be a strat into a Dumble for that juicy lead guitar tone.
GREAT VIDEO Ok I'm going on a limb here Mike Post - any of the Cop show themes Dumble ( pretty sure) Todd Sharp - Dumble user Mr.Mister Dumble user And I believe ( not sure ) this is is an out there one Carl Wilson Beach Boys - don't know what tracks And wasn't Verlaine from Television a Dumble user
After careful and considered research,re-checking original recordings,etc etc. I am now quite conflicted,I cant make up my mind,if the $150,000 amplifier sounds better to my ear,than the $150 pedal. My wife and my accountant have been fairly definitive however.
Perhaps you know, but Andy Brauer was the first Dumble dealer. I suspect that Luke also rented a Dumble from him (like Robben did) for the Boz sessions. Luke was a long time cartage client of Andy’s. Chris Johnson and I bought Andy out in 2005, and called the new company Hollywood Studio Rentals. Chris bought me out in 2013 and I retired to Hawaii.
Yes, I'm aware that he "broke" Dumble to a lot of the LA scene but my understanding was that he was renting them out more than being a "dealer". I think you were still beholden to Dumble's approval and audition if you wanted one. I think the studio rented the amp, not sure if Luke requested it or not - I know that Bill Schnee (producer/engineer) was also a great musician and worked a lot of with Carlton and other Dumble guys and might have requested it for the session because he wanted that sound for the record.
Ride Like The Wind by Christopher Cross I think Eric Johnson played solo on Dumble amp. I’m pretty sure Peg on Steely Dan album was played by Jay Graydon using a Dumble.
I think Eric Johnson only played on Minstrel Gigolo, could be wrong. Do you see him in the credits for that song? I know that Jay Graydon used it on Peg.
Your correct Eric Johnson did not appear on that song and I had believed he did for many years. Keep up the good work I use you string singer pedal everyday and will soon add the HRM pedal.
I remember when Steve Farris used to play here in Marshalltown Iowa at a bar called Butch N Nellies he was a great player throwing Al Di Meola licks in What is Hip
It's not so much about the pedal as the songs, and showcasing those. It's not a commentary on how to get those tones, just on that fact that those songs used that amplifier.
Greg, the same amp was used in all the examples. Fender Deluxe with the Ultraphonix Overdrive into it. That one had a little delay from the Source Audio Nemesis as well.
Technically that's just one hit in my country: Lionel Richie - Dancing on the Ceiling. And I think that's pretty much the story in most of Europe, but still: nice try. Have to listen to the other four on Spotify to know what they are, I guess... Sorry, I'm Dutch. I know the Lido Shuffle though. Did that use a Dumble?
O.M.G. - I love Carlos Rios - super underrated & fantastic player. ( nice guy - too ). Listen to the his guitar solo on: Novo Combo "Welcome Innervision" - he Rips. oNe LovE from NYC
@@ashevilleguitar yes, but I don't think it was used on many, if any Little Feat albums...I think it came later in the game maybe before his solo album.
@@VertexEffectsInc and @earle4370 - That's Dan Ferguson. He played on Barney Miller, Rockford Files, and a few others. I read it was either a Yamaha G100-112 amp and/or a Paul Rivera modded Vibrolux. All great, Dumble-y sounds, though.
Hahahahaha..... The results of a desperate attempt to put Dumble up there with Rivera. Tell you what...why don't you go and make a list of 'all' the classic top ten hits that featured a Rivera modded Fender amp and then ask yourself why you still think that the Emperor is wearing clothes! Go and do the same with Mesa Boogie...and then Marshall and Vox, and Fender........... We all know you have something to sell.. Only you don't realise that it is yesterday's news!

Where's the desperation? I don't have a dog in the fight - I don't make amps. Nothing in this video is an indictment of Rivera or his amplifiers so I'm not sure how you landed on this idea from the video. If you took any time to look at this channel you can see that we've interviewed Paul Rivera Sr. multiple times and have mega respect for him and his contribution to the pedalboard scene and amplifiers with the Stage II Fender Mods and beyond. In fact, his new Stage IV amp is going to be part of a new video called "The Most Famous Amp You've Never Heard Of" that goes through some of the big hits that used a Rivera modded Fender amp like Michael Jackson, Toto, and more. Dumble may be irrelevant for you, but not our industry generally and pedals and amps modeled after the tones and circuit do very well with many brands. This may not be your preference, but has nothing to do with any commentary on Rivera, Boogie, or otherwise - both can be great sounding amps and used on classic hits and records at the same time - one doesn't disqualify the other.
Only way to really know is have a splitter after the guitar and have a Dumble opposite the pedal into the Deluxe Reverb with the same mics and speaker. We have other videos that explicitly A/B the Ultraphonix Overdrive pedal with a real Dumble ODS - it might be a cool video for you to check out.

Yes, for sure, some of the Little Feat stuff used a Dumble for sure.
