badbluesplayer Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Here's the frequency response graphs for three different amps with tone controls at 12:00. The yellow line is a '57 Fender Pro. Pretty flat. The green line is a '66 Fender Deluxe Reverb. Big midrange scoop, lower gain. Different kind of tonestack. The blue line is the '82? Dumble Overderive #102 amp, Robben Ford's amp, with a blackface style tonestack but a mids pot that's got enough resistance to dial out lots of mids. So, the Dumble is way more like the Pro, despite having a tone circuit more like a Deluxe Reverb. Now I'm supposed to mow the lawn. 🙁Check it out - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murph Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 My Blue Angel is perfect, no gain knob. The harder you drive it, the better it clips. 6v6 and or EL84. I never understood why they weren't more popular. I always liked Robben Ford and players who used less "fuzz" and more drive. Your education far surpasses mine in electronics, my friend.
