Tell me i'm ignorant and an idiot, but....

There's no magic involved in a dumble or any other amp. In fact, there's not even any magic in any of our beloved Musicmans (Musicmen?). There is also no such thing as a magic tubescreamer. Or a magic 50's guitar. Honest!

We might percieve something to be "magic", or perhaps the money spent on gear makes us think something sounds better than it really is, but when it comes down to it a dumble is just some wood, a speaker, some tubes, caps, resistors etc.

However, I'm sure a Dumble is a really well designed amp, just how a Musicman is a well designed guitar.

Back to the point of the thread- there must be an interesting story behind that amp. And we want to hear it!! :)

I call the Magic ..."MOJO" ....I am 39 years old and have been playing almost 30 years ...and yes my friend some gear is MAGIC...it has a certain MOJO about it that makes it stand out from the rest ....My silver Sparkle AL is like that ....It has a tone that is intoxicating and i have tried several others that just dont have it ....and others will say the same thing ...Even my BFR AL isnt the guitar my Silver sparkle AL is ....ahhhh Magic ...Mojo ....whatever you call it ....but ITS REAL!!!

LOL- no! There are some things you shouldn't screw with! Santa is great! Hopefully he will get me one of those new pickup selector switching game changer things.
