Robben Ford Discussion

What a relief huh?

It's nice to hear you have gotten things sorted out. Now id only I could get happy with my tone. Embarassed

If you can...What's your spending limit? I just reread your original post and realized that you wre thinking of doing a mod of some sort. What's the donor amp?

I have a Dumble inspired amp called the Super Overdrive manufactured by Glaswerks in Arizona. I've owned a Fuchs ODS, as well as a Two Rock Topaz (very similar to the Emerald Pro).

Let me reitterate that I love Robben's music, and in my experience he has been the consummate performer.

My whole argument is based on the premise that things went the way the thread starter said t ...

Very excited to hear about this. Looking forward to new music from Robben, and would love to have the DVD of him and Larry together.

Outstanding!
