Aguilar Unveils Tone Hammer 210 Combo and New Pedals | NAMM 2026

PG's Chris Kies stopped by the Aguilar booth to check out the new Tone Hammer 210 combo, which pairs a second-generation 300-watt Tone Hammer head with a separate 2x10 ceramic driver cabinet to preserve resonance space while staying gig-friendly. The combo features dual XLR outputs with onboard cabinet IRs for in-ear monitoring or front-of-house mixing, plus voicing that trades some ultra-low end for punchy clarity that cuts through live settings. He also got a look at updated versions of their TLC compressor and Octamizer octave generator pedals, both now built on a DSP platform with added features like release and blend controls, visual metering, multiple octave modes, and tilt EQ.

We stopped by Cornerstone Music Gear to demo the Nucleo Reverb, a collaboration with Paul Davids featuring three reverb engines (Reactor, Room, Hall) with three voicings each (Normal, Vintage, Lo-Fi), plus dedicated faders for modulation, pitch shifting (AIR), and granular textures (FLUX). The pedal offers 90-second decay, freeze and freeze-pitch modes for holding reverb tails indefinitely, transformer-isolated stereo outputs, USB-C audio interface functionality, and 3 onboard presets plus 128 via MIDI.

John Bohlinger stopped by DigiTech to get the scoop on the Badder Monkey, which brings back the cult-favorite Bad Monkey overdrive with the original circuit plus two new modes (Behaved and Badder) that blend via a 360-degree Barrel knob. The pedal features a 3-way toggle for phase switching or activating all three circuits in Troop mode, plus Bananas, Curiosity, and Mood tone-shaping knobs, and ships with DOD's patent-pending reversible StagePlate that offers rubber feet on one side and built-in Velcro on the other.

Reverend walked us through the company's streamlined 2026 lineup, which reorganizes all their guitars into body-based lines (Charger, Kingbolt, Roundhouse, Sensei) differentiated by pickup configuration instead of individual model names. The lineup features new Steelhead humbuckers that combine ceramic and Alnico 5 magnets for added punch and chime, plus noiseless Steelhead 90 pickups designed to retain authentic P-90 character and single-coil quack without any 60-cycle hum.

DSM/Humboldt’s Daniel Schwartz walked us through the new Dumblifier—a pedal designed to capture the feel and responsiveness of original Dumble amps, developed after comparing their design against authentic models like the legendary No. 12. The pedal combines DSM's Simplifier platform with authentic ODS controls including jazz/rock EQ switching, J-FET boost, mid boost, and bright switch, giving players stereo cab simulation, multiple speaker options, and flexible routing in a compact format.
