Description

The Keeley El Rey Dorado is an overdrive pedal inspired by the legendary Dumble amplifier character, delivering the warm, harmonically complex, touch-sensitive overdrive saturation associated with Alexander Dumble's custom-built amplifiers used by Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robben Ford, and other blues and jazz-rock guitarists. The El Rey Dorado aims to capture the regal, singing overdrive quality of the Dumble circuit at a price accessible to players who cannot acquire a genuine Dumble or high-priced boutique recreation.

The Providence Red Rock OD ROD-1 is a high-quality overdrive pedal from Providence Japan delivering warm, musical overdrive with Japanese precision build quality in a professional enclosure. Providence is known for careful circuit design and excellent Japanese manufacturing.
