Dumble Overdrive Special 1977 Brown Suede
Serial number 077.
This amp was built for Terry Haggerty in 1977 by Howard Dumble. This is an incredible sounding Dumble amp and has the supurb Dumble tone that we all love. The original EVM 12L Series 2 speaker really screams. 50 watts. Amp comes with rare original foot switch that was custom made by Dumble. Dumble inscribed the custom wood foot pedal with Terry Haggerty's name. Amp includes original road case with Terry Haggerty stencil!
This amp has been updated by HAD on several occasions, with the date inscribed into the chasis by Dumble at each update. There are 3 different dates within the amp. Written in hand on the formica is 'Dumble 1978" and another date from 1980. Inscribed in the metal chassis is 'Checked by HD 4-20-82.' Howard also added an additional control knob of the back of the amp during this time. All modifications had been performed by Dumble himself. This amp has some rare features not seen on very many Dumble ODS.
The FET input was not working correctly when we purchased this amp. Amp was recently opened up and serviced by an amp tech here in Chicago that is well versed in Dumble amps, and the FET input was a quick fix. The FET input works perfectly now.
Amp came from the estate of of Kim "Kimbo" Davis of Point Blank. Funny, the photo that reverb.com has for their dumble amp "price guide" is actually this amp.
