“An all-valve, hand-wired chunk of no compromise engineering.”
“Maybe half a grand isn’t such a bad price if a pedal really can cope with all your boost, overdrive and tone control needs.” Review by Alex Lees.
This spectacular beast is our winner in the over-£1000 category this year because it has the three qualities we look for all in one – exceptional sound, great build quality, and fabulous looks. The other contenders came pretty damn close on any two out of the three, but only the Dickinson rang the required three bells.
If you’re a fan of traditional amp values – a loud, clear and full sound, with great overdrive composure – then very few other amps have them in such measure. We can only ascribe this to the unique cabinet construction its excellent sustain and wide soundfield, which means that you may not find anything else that does the job quite as well.
