PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE COMMENTING... Wondering how a Dumble Overdrive Special compares to a Fuchs Overdrive Supreme?  Can you even come close to matching the tone of a real Dumble?  How 'bout taking this to the next level and attempting to match tones with the legendary Larry Carlton?  Listen closely to the 30 second clip in the video (same clip plays 3 times) -- some of those lines are Larry Carlton, some of them are my efforts at matching his tone.  It cuts in and out and it's not consistent so you'd really have to work to figure out which phrase belongs to who.  In 2007,  I set out to match Larry Carlton's legendary Dumble tone with a Fuchs ODS 100 amplifier.  I had the chance to talk to Larry about his amp in person and I spoke at length with Larry's guitar tech, Rick Wheeler about his set up as well.  The results were written in an article that I sent out to my Radical Tone subscribers back in 2010.
