    G-major or stompboxes?

    GM2 in the switchable loop of my Hagen does the job for me. I need maybe clean with delay, and thereafter high gain with no effects and thereafter maybe crunch with delay and chorus and so on. With the FCB1010 floorboard and the gm2 in the rack I have all options, simultaneous channel and...

    Hagen settings

    Personally it depends on whether I play for myself or at rehearsal. In band context I like to have deep around noon and presence maybe a little bit more. I play mostly channels 1 and 4 (gain at around 12h) and there the bass is quite low, whereas middles are around 14h and highs at around 17h...

    Which Engl for me?

    @sinnersmoon oh sorry, I looked it up, you are perfectly right!! Also the later savage has only 2 power tubes, I have really a bad memory. So the difference between both savages is even more astonishing to me. The newer one was really a huge improvement for my personal taste. More headroom...

    Which Engl for me?

    Please allow me to chime in on such a late stage, I only saw the thread now. I had for years a pre-2012 Savage, could have even be pre-1996, and was not happy at all with it, because I never could dial in the "balls" I was looking for. In my view this amp lacked in high gain mode completely in...

    EQ's for each channel insert?

    This means that you would run the eq before of the preamp section, am I correct? I run one eq in the serial loop (Hagen), which is after the preamp, and this really helped improving my tone. I was able to keep all the goods of the amp and tweaking my own taste in it. I tried to eq also before...

    Where's the Hagen guys?

    I own the Hagen since 2011, and play in a death/thrash Metal band. Before having this amp, I have been on the quest for my tone for about 15 years. My guitar is Blackmachine B8 and I always felt to be almost there tone wise but the Lundgren pickups seemed to sterile and harsh for my taste. Since...

    Bare Knuckle pups and Diezel Hagen & VH4

    This seems to be a topic with quite some need of information exchange. Does anyone have experience with Haeussel pickups? I have Lundgren M8 on my guitar but they compress too much for my taste. Would need something more open and clear, without loosing too much aggression. Amp is the Hagen...

    What pickup do you like with your Diezel??

    I have an 8-string Blackmachine guitar with swamp ash body and ebony top. Neck is rosewood with ebony fingerboard. The guitar came with Lundgren M8 pickups. I was thinking to change pups due to the lack of clarity I was experiencing. The alternatives would have been either Harry Haeussel pups...

    HAGEN REVIEW - about 30 hours in...

    Yesterday during rehearsal I suddenly felt a presence behind me. The Hagen seemed to grin and stare at me with evil glance. Suddenly I heard a voice in my head saying " Is this really all you can give?? Turn me louder!! I know you also want it!! Turn me louder!!". I need to see a doctor...

    Hagen owners. I need your help!

    Same as Gothiman suggests I do not know if there is a huge difference between the Blueface and the 08/VH4. However I would also keep one of the Vs and the Einy and then enhance the rig with the Hagen.

    Day of Hagen

    Guys, this thing is dangerous! I have now cut all social contacts, am refusing drink and food and get some serious hand trembligs at work ( which must be some deprivation symptomes I believe). All that interests me now is playing the amp. Moreover I have found out that the Hagen is a great...

    Day of Hagen

    Just wanted to thank very much peter(s) for developing the hagen and lars for building mine. I am a too bad hobby musician, so I do not dare making any review, moreover I think reza did an excellent job (your vid on youtube shows all important aspects of the hagen imho, thank you!) and many...

    Amp cover

    Thanks Markus, The Herbert is apparently a little bit less in depth or height I read, so this might be a little bit tricky. However I will have a look at ampcovers, thanks. Obiwan

    Amp cover

    Hi everyone, As I couldn't find anything with the search function, I thought to ask directly, whether anyone could recommend an amp cover that fits the Hagen. The VH4 is only a little bit larger I believe, so a cover fitting the VH4 may also do the job very well. It would be great if the cover...
