My Dumble #94

Post by Markus »

Hi guys,

as some of you know that I´m the owner of Dumble #94. Some years ago I bought the amp from Gregor Hilden here in Germany. I´m interested in the history of this ODS. Are there some experts here that could give me some informations? That would be great!
Thanks,

Markus

I have spoken with a collector who claims to have owned before Gregor.

AFAIR (after more than 20 years) it was already in Japan around 1992. What in detail would you like to know about this ODS? And do you know, if the goop was already removed when Gregor Hilden got this amp?

Cheers,

Max

Yes, I know that Gregor bought the amp from a japanese guy. What I´d like to know is:

- Who is the first user of #94?
- When did Alexander Dumble built the amp? Gregor said the amp was built in 1983. But maybe the amp was built earlier.
- Are there some more owners of the amp during the years? Was Larry Carlton one of these owners as someone here in the community thought?
- How did the amp find it´s way to Japan?

I think the goop was already removed when Gregor got the ODS. He only played the amp and did not even change something on the inside:-)

I know that´s a lot of different questions. But whom should I ask if not the experts here in the ampgarage :wink:

Mr. Dumble might help you out. His email is hoalex@dslextreme.com. Based on some of the emails that I've seen, he's fairly active on the internet/email.
