Brown Note D’Lite ODS 1x12 50w Dumble-Style Boutique Tube Guitar Combo Amp - Used
Type: Used
Condition: Very Good
Used Brown Note D’Lite ODS 1x12 50w Dumble-Style Boutique Tube Guitar Combo Amp, Green Finish. Has a Fane Studio 12L Speaker which handles dark and heavy distortion well as is frequently compared to the Electro-Voice EVM 12L. The speaker is dated for 2010 which would be pretty consistent as to when these amp kits were readily available.
The Brown Note D’Lite ODS 1x12 is a boutique, hand-wired tube combo amplifier meticulously designed to replicate the legendary "D-style" tones of the Dumble Overdrive Special. Known for its exceptional touch sensitivity and rich harmonic complexity, this amplifier provides a high-end alternative for players seeking the iconic "violin-like" sustain and "glassy" cleans made famous by artists like Larry Carlton and Eric Johnson.
The original Overdrive Special (ODS) amplifier was allegedly inspired by a performance attended by a young Alexander Dumble wherein he heard Robben Ford playing through a Tube Screamer into a Fender Bassman. The ODS was designed with the intention of recreating that particular tone; one with a rich low end and searing, crisp highs that didn’t become overly mushy when opened up. As such, the ODS features a unique pseudo-two channel design wherein the overdrive channel actually piggybacks off the clean (very similarly to how a pedal pushes the front end of a tube amp). That design allows for a remarkable degree of clarity when the Overdrive is engaged, and tone sculpting via the preamp EQ affects both channels.
The D'Lite ODS has a big, bold sound, with a creamy breakup when driven hard. The clean channel is crisp and balanced, with bright highs; a strong, responsive low end presence; and a tailored midrange, with a Midrange Boost circuit for an extra kick of girth. There are three toggle switches in the preamp controls:
-BR adds significant brightness and high end presence
-OD engages the Overdrive channel
-PAB adds a preamp boost which dramatically fattens the signal at all frequencies, still without muddiness. Many guitarists treat this as an “always on” switch.
