J. Rockett Audio Designs The Dude

The J. Rockett Audio Designs The Dude overdrive pedal is a tribute to the legendary Dumble Overdrive Special amplifier, a highly sought-after amp known for its distinct tone and unparalleled feel. Designed to capture the essence of a Dumble amp, this pedal was meticulously crafted from a Dumble amplifier owned by Keith Urban. It faithfully recreates the touch-sensitive dynamic response, rich harmonic overtones, and versatile drive that make the original amps so revered.

From a subtle, transparent clean boost to a searing, high-gain lead sound, The Dude offers a wide range of sonic possibilities. The control layout allows you to fine-tune your sound, with Treble and Deep controls to shape your EQ, a Level knob to manage your output, and a unique Ratio control that blends the gain with your clean signal. This allows for a parallel processing effect that gives your tone a powerful, layered quality while remaining highly responsive to your playing dynamics. The construction is built for the road, with durable hardware and a rugged metal chassis to withstand the rigors of touring.

The Dude is the perfect pedal for guitarists seeking that elusive "D-style" tone without the hefty price tag. Its circuit is meticulously designed to replicate the signature sound of a Dumble ODS, providing the mythical clean-to-dirty breakup that has inspired countless musicians from Larry Carlton to Robben Ford. Its noiseless true bypass footswitching ensures that your signal remains pristine when the pedal is not in use.
