responsive, and the drive channel has a thick, liquid, singing sustain that doesn’t

lose string deﬁnition when driven hard. POD’s tone controls on this Amp Model

are quite subtle, like those of the Dumble itself.

Rectiﬁed #2 (Hold Tap + Rectiﬁed) - This Amp Model is modeled after a

1995 Mesa Boogie Dual Rectiﬁer head. As with the Tremoverb combo that was

modeled for the POD Rectiﬁed Amp Model, the Dual Rectiﬁer was part of

Boogie’s more modern, high gain approach for that “big hair” sound. In contrast to

the earlier Boogies, the Dual Rectiﬁer’s tone controls have more inﬂuence at high

gain settings, so you can scoop the mids and increase the bottom end.

Modern Hi Gain #2 (Hold Tap + Modern HiGain) - This sound is modeled

after a Soldano SLO – Super Lead Overdrive – head. With snake skin tolex and

everything! Unlike the X88R preamp used for the POD Modern Hi Gain Amp

Model, the SLO includes a presence control, plus other little details that give it a

bit of a different sound. With the Drive control cranked way up, you’ll get sustain

for days.... Go out’n’ave a bite – when you come back it’ll still be sustaining!

Boutique #2 (Hold Tap + Fuzz Box) - Based on the Dumble Overdrive

Special Drive Channel (just described). If you like the Dumble sound, you might

also want to check out the Line 6 Crunch model – it was created to deliver a

similar kind of tone.

Jazz Clean (Hold Tap + Tube Preamp) - This Amp Model is modeled after the

classic Roland JC-120. This transistor amp was known for a strident clean sound

and built-in stereo chorus. When using the Jazz Clean Amp Model, try cranking

up the Treble for a shimmering clean sound that’ll cut through just about any

mix. It’s also perfect for that 80’s “new wave” sound. Alternatively, try backing off

on the Treble and turn up the Bass and Middle for a darker jazz tone. It’ll give

you an essentially ﬂat response, providing a balanced tone across the fret board for

jazz chord melodies or single-line phrasing.
