Title: Speaker in Dumble? Post by: skydog on April 07, 2009, 01:54:00 AM Noob here, with a first post. What speaker(s) were used in the Dumble Overdrive Specials? The few pics I've seen seem to feature an Altec but I can't make out the model number.

No, seriously - do a search at this forum or at ampgarage.com Its one of the most discussed subjects. Title: Re: Speaker in Dumble? Post by: skydog on April 07, 2009, 02:30:42 PM probably 8 ohm? No, seriously - do a search at this forum or at ampgarage.com Its one of the most discussed subjects. It's probably been overdiscussed to put it mildly. That's why I just wanted to know if there was a standard issue that came w/ the Dumble. Lot's of spirited discussion on which is best for the OST but (as tone is relative) no hard answer.

Celestion G12-65, ElectroVoice EVM-12L, Eminence Delta pro 12, Eminence Red, white and Blues are common used speakers with Dumbles and clones. Title: Re: Speaker in Dumble? Post by: herby660 on April 08, 2009, 08:24:39 PM Skydog is that you from LPF and youtube.
If you go with a Celestion Gold you have the best which I have found with the OT I have tried EVM12L, a bit sterile, nice OD and nice cleans but I am used to Celestion Blues and Golds which are superior in both aspects(in certain applications of course) G12-65 - nice OD, a bit flabby vs the Gold in the bass, Gold is creamier, richer, and the cleans are BF Fender only purer. I can get spanky fender tones. In fact the cleans are better than any I have heard to date from any of the forums with this amp. Title: Re: Speaker in Dumble?
