Re:Characteristics of "Dumble Tone"?
>There is one more thing that is hard to describe, but the amp just has its own sound. There is a boxy or phasey quality to it sometimes that has a lot of character.  
 
That's EXACTLY what I thought of the Two Rock that I tried here in Hawaii. There's a sort of 3 dimensional quality - a rich sound. Yes, not a Marshall or Fender type overdrive, but a smooth, rich - at low volumes a warm and fuzzy tone.  
 
>It will clean up with a light touch, and give you creamy sustain when you pick hard, WITHOUT ROLLING DOWN YOUR VOLUME.  
 
This part describes what Larry Carlton sounds like when he plays the Dumble.
