Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Catalinbread Sidearm is a boost and overdrive pedal from Portland, Oregon, designed as a harmonic enhancer and level boost that adds presence and musical saturation at its gain ceiling. Provides clean boost through light overdrive with a transparent character that preserves the fundamental guitar tone while adding harmonic content and presence. Designed for players who need a reliable, musical boost pedal that sounds like more of the same guitar and amp rather than adding obvious pedal character. Made in Portland by Catalinbread.
The Shin's Music Dumbloid B is a boost/overdrive variant within Shin's Music's Dumble-inspired Dumbloid lineup, offering a differently configured take on the ODS-style circuit compared to the standard Dumbloid, likely emphasizing boost functionality alongside the core overdrive character. It shares the family's focus on capturing Dumble Overdrive Special-style tonal character, adapted for players wanting a specific boost-oriented variant of the acclaimed circuit.
