DSM & Humboldt Dumblifier Overdrive Special
I årtionden har gitarrister världen över drömt om att fånga magin hos den mytomspunna Dumble Overdrive Special. Hittills har det främst skett via digital modellering – lösningar som kan efterlikna ljudet, men sällan den legendariska känslan i spelet.
Dumblifier Overdrive Special från DSM Humboldt Electronics bryter den barriären. Med beprövad analog förstärkarmodellering återskapar den inte bara tonen, utan även den unika kompressionen och anslagskänslan som får varje ton att blomma, sjunga och leva - precis som originalet.

For decades, guitarists around the world have dreamed of capturing the magic of the mythical Dumble Overdrive Special. Until now, the only way to approximate this experience has been through digital modeling—solutions that may reproduce the sound, but always fall short of replicating what truly makes these amps legendary: the feel under your fingers.
The Dumblifier Overdrive Special by DSM Humboldt Electronics breaks that barrier. By using our proven analog amplifier modeling technology, we have not only recreated the tone but also the unique compression and touch response that makes every note bloom, sustain, and sing—just like on the original amps.
Analog accuracy: Unlike digital processors, the Dumblifier responds organically to your playing dynamics, delivering the unmistakable "punchy compression" and smooth sustain that Dumbles are known for.
Direct access to the real thing: Beyond studying schematics, recordings, and every available piece of information, we had the rare opportunity to spend time with a genuine 1970’s Dumble ODS in Tokyo, Japan. Thanks to a devoted DSM Humboldt fan, we were allowed to test and analyze this priceless relic, an experience that gave us invaluable insights to fine-tune the Dumblifier’s design.
Beyond boutique limitations: Until now, the few available alternatives were extremely expensive and produced only in limited, made-to-order quantities, never intended for mass availability.
True versatility: Other so-called "Dumble-style" pedals are meant to run in front of amplifiers, so the final tone depends mostly on the amp itself. The Dumblifier, however, goes further—it can operate as a complete analog amp replacement with cab-sim and stereo features, or as a two-channel overdrive pedal in front of any rig. Its TRS outputs with cab-sim bypass make it extraordinarily flexible.
All-in-one solution: With stereo FX loop, stereo reverb, cabinet simulation, and DI outputs, the Dumblifier is equally at home on stage, in the studio, or in your practice setup.
With the Dumblifier Overdrive Special, DSM/Humboldt Electronics isn’t just replicating tones. We’re delivering the experience of playing a Dumble available to every guitarist.
