Tubesteader's nod to the Dumble ODS!

The Beekeeper is a meticulously hand-built preamp featuring two 12AX7 tubes running at high voltage.

Its circuit draws inspiration from the iconic Dumble ODS, a design closely associated with the signature tones of many legendary players.

The Beekeeper starts with a sparkling clean tone that gradually transitions into a smooth, rich, and touch-sensitive overdrive as it is pushed. It excels as both an overdrive and a preamp, making it a versatile addition to any pedalboard!

Positioned at the end of your signal chain, the Beekeeper pairs beautifully with your favorite cab sim or IR loader, delivering a responsive feel and dynamic tone, thanks to its onboard 12AX7 tubes.

This pedal is as amp-like as they come, responding naturally to your playing dynamics.

It’s not just a “stomp and go” pedal, some exploration is required to unlock its full potential.

Spend time with the Beekeeper, and you’ll be richly rewarded!
