Maybe I'll contact Randy with a tweed deluxe type custom build, if he would.
I have played Rosco's and it definitely gets the Dumble vibe. Then there is the "mod" switch, which takes into a more Marshall kind of thing. It's a highly organic sounding "D" style tone

I have also played Hipofutura's Ceriatone HRM. It's a very nice amp. It's very thick on the Dumble voice, with a definite 3D thing going on. It's a nice sounding amp for sure.

So if you like the more "airy" 3D sound, and like a thicker tone, you may like the Ceriatone.

If you like a more natural sound that has more midrange, and a little more forward, and would probably do better in a live setting "IMO" Then you may like Randy's version.
