The clean mod was good. It was possible to achieve a Fender-ish clean sound with some tweaking on the EQ and feel-knob. I was hesitant to order an amp in that price range, since I live in Sweden it gets pricey with tolls and taxes, that lacked a clean channel. Even though I rarely use the clean...

Same road traveled here. I had the Ares, the first one with the clean mod actually, and when I compared it to my Archon I just missed some warmth, low end and organic feel in the Ares that the Archon brought. Same when compared with the Mark V. I still maintain that the Ares is AMAZING, just...

I've only used the Captor X and I think it's amazing. My amp sounds amazing, can't hear any loss of any kind and as an IR and into my DAW it's extremely flexible. The app on my phone is so easy to use and changes can be made and assigned real quick, when at a gig or rehearsal to be able to...

Triple threat. Although I just sold the Elmwood :/

Hey guys! I just stumbled upon a great deal on an Einstein, the only thing is I'm not gonna be able to try it first. A friend lives close to the seller, I'm a good five-six hours away. I'vee been searching the forum and YouTube extensively, but I can't find any clips that shows some heavier...

Hey guys! I did a thing. After several years of hiatus, I decided to do something with my myself. So I hit the studio for real and recorded an EP! The entire thing is recorded with my PRS P22, and all tracks are recorded on my PRS Archon head (100w) and some dubs are made with a Mesa Dual...

Hey guys! I found a used Triaxis and I´m considering buying it. But I´m a little hesitant, it is quite old and I´m guessing the tech isn´t "up to date" compared to other preamps. My question is this, is the Triaxis worth buying because it still sounds great, or should I just move on? All the...

Hey guys! So, I'm totally new on this side of rig-talk, been hanging with the Diezel guys mostly :) But I just got offered to trade my Diezel Herbert for a CAA Standard +, and I'm looking for some info regarding tone, sound and feel for the amp. Haven't been able to find any good clips or...

Hey guys! I´m browsing for a reverb stompbox and thought I had my mind set for a TC Electronics Hall of fame (or maybe Trinity 2) :D I would of course prefer a Strymon, but my wallet doesn't agree :no: Then I stumbled upon the T-rex Ghost tone, which seems pretty sweet. Anyone tried it or...

I'm about to update my entire rig. I started with a Diezel Hagen and I'm looking at some effects now. So how are you guys running things with your Diezels? A g-major 2 would be convinient with the midi and all, but I get the feeling that a couple of good stompboxes would grant me a little...

Hey guys! I bought my Hagen a couple of weeks ago and I find myself still tweaking the eq :) I find that the Hagen is so diverse that finding a sweet spot in a specific style is a bit more challenging than my Herbert , which is land of auto-good. But when I fire up my Hagen I just feel...

Hey guys! I bought a Hagen the other week (which rocks!!) but I need to buy new preamp tubes. I´ve narrowed it down to JJ's or TAD's. Have any of you guys tried them both? Is there a noticeable difference? Pros and cons? All the best, U

And I love it! As I already own a Herbert I wanted to try them simultaneously, to have something to compare with and to have a reference sound. Have to say, the Hagen killed it! A rich , full sound but still that Diezel tone. I found the midrange of the Hagen to be more clear and pushed and...

Hey guys! Long time since I posted anything about acquiring a legendary piece of equipment! :thumbsup: I have a Herbert, which is on his way to my tech for repairs :aww: So I stumbled upon an amazing offer on a new Hagen with a massive discount. Haven't had the chance to play it for...

Greetings on this sad day. I went to put some fresh tubes in my Herbert today, he´s been sounding a bit tired lately. Went through protocol with changing tubes, I have the one with external bias, just to discover that the first point of biasing isn't reading anything. It´s stone dead :no: The...

Hey guys! Tried to search for an answer, but was unsuccessful. I have an "older" Herbert with the external bias. There used to be a guide on the Diezel webpage, but doesn't seem to be there anymore. So if I remember correctly the way to go is to: 1) Remove the fuse for the couple I am...

Ok, I´ve searched the board for answers but I was unsuccessful! I´m about to change tubes in my Herbert, and I´m all set for the KT77´s. But when it comes to the preamp I´m totally lost. First of all, I live in Sweden, so the dealer has to be in the EU. If I´ve understood Peter correctly he...
