The Dude Incredible is a pairing of two cult classics: the IVP “Tube Voice” preamp and a percolator-style fuzz. Together, these two circuits have produced some of the most iconic guitar sounds in noise rock: jangly rhythm tones, ear-piercing treble chords, and endless walls of howling feedback. Originally released in 2017, the Dude Incredible was the first adaptation of the IVP into a pedal format. Now, it returns with some extra features and modern reliability improvements.

The Tube Voice channel is our streamlined version of the Intersound IVP (aka Instrument Voicing Preamp), a nearly-forgotten rackmount preamp from the 1970s. The transformer-loaded overdrive circuit is driven by a pre-gain shelving EQ for a distinctive palette of frequency-selective distorted sounds. Far from just a clang machine, this channel is fantastic for medium gain tones or as an always-on base layer. (This channel can also be found as a standalone unit in our Surveyor pedal.)

The Percolate channel needs no introduction. Our take on this beloved two-transistor fuzz features a painstakingly selected germanium transistor based on measurements of an original unit. We also added a diode switch to select between our custom configuration found in the Dude Incredible V1 and a more traditional highly compressed mode. Combining the Percolate side with the Tube Voice side produces a devastatingly destroyed fuzz.

Even if you aren’t a metal-pick-wielding treble fiend, the Dude Incredible is a source of unique distortion sounds that can’t be found anywhere else.

ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Bypass Switching:Independent fuzz and preamp circuits with relay-based true bypass switching which defaults to bypass in the event of power loss.

Input impedance @ 1kHz: 100kΩ (perc) / 500kΩ (tube voice)

Output impedance @ 1kHz: <25kΩ (perc), <5kΩ (tube voice)

Power: 9VDC, 2.1mm center negative barrel. The current draw is 90mAwith both channels engaged.

We recommend a regulated, isolated power supply rated for 100mA. Dude Incredible does not accept a battery. The power input is protected from reverse polarity and over-voltage conditions up to 24V.

CONTROLS

  • Harm: Input gain for the Percolate channel.

  • Balance: Output level for the Percolate channel.

  • Gain: Tube Voice gain control; highly interactive with the Bass and Treble settings.

  • Level: Output level control, turn clockwise for more volume.   

  • Treble: Tube Voice high shelf boost/cut, +/-12dB @ 3kHz located pre-Gain.

  • Bass:Tube Voice low shelf boost/cut, +/-12dB @ 100Hz located pre-Gain.

  • Diode (toggle):changes the clipping configuration of the Percolate channel. Up for less compression, down for more.

  • Hi/Lo (toggle):changes the gain range of the Tube Voice channel. In the Lo setting the gain range is -15dB to +12dB, in the Hi setting the gain range is +9dB to +36dB.

  • Right footswitch: Engages the Percolate circuit

  • Left footswitch: Engages the Tube Voice circuit

CHANGELOG

Version 2

  • New mechanical form factor

  • Added soft-touch relay bypass

  • Component tweaks to the Percolate side for an overall “nastier” sound

  • Added diode toggle and new clipping modes to the Percolate side

  • Updated Tube Voice side with Hi/Lo toggle (to match Surveyor V2)

  • Added over-voltage and ESD protection for the power supply

Version 1

  • Original release

Warranty & Returns

All New products are covered by the manufacturers new warranty. Please check their website for the length of warranty and warranty conditions. If an item you receive is faulty get in touch with us ASAP. Second Hand products come with a 4 week warranty from us. If there is an issue let us know ASAP! This covers normal use and does not cover accidental damage, misuse, wrong power plugged into it, modding, water damage or any other damage caused by mistreatment. Just treat it nice and all will be good!

Shipping

We send A LOT of packages every week so don't worry about the shipping side of things!

We've never lost a thing and your awesome new gear will be packed up really well to avoid any damage in transit.

If your order comes in before 2pm we will ship it same day. Most of the time we pack things up all the way to 4pm so just call if you need it to leave same day after 2pm.

We ship mainly with Australia Post but may use a courier depending on location and size of the package.

Free Post ships with Australia Post standard and expected shipping times are between 4-6 business days depending on location. It will be longer to outside of metro and rural areas.

Express Post will usually be with you next business day in metro areas of QLD, NSW, SA, VIC and TAS. WA will take 2 days to metro and extra days after that to out side metro and rural areas.

Everything we ship has a tracking number with the exception of some power cables and smaller envelope packages. You will be emailed tracking once your order has been shipped!
