    Help with Diezel Schmidt reverb

    The Diezel service manual says the reverb driver and return in the Schmidt is V3. It’s worth swapping it out to see if that solves it. Scroll down to the bottom of page 41 https://www.diezelamplification.com/manuals/service/service-manual_V1-2.pdf

    What's your favorite boost for your Diezel? What amp?

    Thanks for the info. I’ll check out the video I’m not sure if the one I had was faulty with the bleed through. I’ll definitely see about picking one up then.

    What's your favorite boost for your Diezel? What amp?

    I was originally looking at the SD1 but saw a decent deal on the Maxon and went for it I’ll probably try an SD1 too if I can find an older one for a reasonable price. I had an 90’s one years ago but the bleed through on bypass had me selling it.

    What's your favorite boost for your Diezel? What amp?

    I just ordered a Maxon OD808 yesterday to try with the Hagen. Good to know I made the right call

    Diezel VH4 or other heads with EL34’s

    I just received the Actition 8 button MIDI switcher and now have my Hagen set up complete. I’m really glad I found this thread. Thanks Phillhouse for the help. It really is ready to use straight out of the box and super easy to program. Diezel deserve credit for making the MIDI interface...

    Diezel shortage in europe

    Thomann stocks Diezel amps. Some are on back order but the lead time on the VH4 is 2-3 weeks https://www.thomann.de/gb/diezel.html I ordered a VH2 at the end of 2022 and it said 6-7 week delivery time but I had it within about half the time estimated.

    What are your favorite pickups to use with Diezel amps?

    I have a Hagen and Big Max and using a Les Paul and SG with Duncan Distortions in the bridge SH2 Jazz in the neck. Drop D and C# standard tuning. I’m still experimenting with speakers but currently really liking V30s and Mesa C90s Sounds absolutely killer!

    Diezel VH4 or other heads with EL34’s

    Thank you. That’s really helpful! Do you know if it’s a 7 pin or 5 pin midi lead? I read elsewhere that the wrong lead can cause problems in the amp.

    Diezel VH4 or other heads with EL34’s

    Hey, old thread I know but can I ask if you are using an external power supply with the Actition midi switcher? I’m looking at this or the Tech 21 midi moose and not wanting to mess up my Hagen. Not sure if I need an external power source or if it powers from the Hagen? I looked at the...

    Audio phase per channel for Hagen and Herbert Mk2?

    Hi, I have a Hagen (great amp, I absolutely love it) and the phase definitely flips between channels 3 and 4. I just checked by running it with my Diezel Big Max (single channel).

    Diezel 2x12 Cabs - Lots of Choices, Not A Lot Of Info

    Glad to be of help! I expect the RV would sound incredible whatever you put through it. I think you’re right about the mic placement playing a big part. You honestly can’t go wrong with Diezel. Their build quality and sound is top notch. I never thought I’d sell my Mesa cabs but if I can...

    Diezel 2x12 Cabs - Lots of Choices, Not A Lot Of Info

    I have a Diezel (Germany) FL212 cab that I’ve recently started to use with my Diezel Hagen and Big Max amps and I can honestly say it’s worth the money. I’ve always used rear loaded Mesa cabs until now and was a little hesitant in purchasing the front loaded Diezel cab but I absolutely prefer...

    What speakers do you like with your Diezel?

    Mesa cabs and Diezel amps do sound great together! I swapped out the Diezel FL 2x12 with the Mesa T4416 V30’s and really couldn’t be happier with it now. The thicker low mids work well with the Hagen. Channel 4 is getting more use as a result. I’m keeping the Mesa rear loaded 2x12 as it’s...

    Diezel 4x12 replacement casters and mounting plates?

    That’s a bummer. Hopefully they get back to you with info on the plates. It might be worth a shot contacting a dealer as well. I have an order in with Thomann for a Hagen FS7 foot switch. It was a 6-7 week estimate for delivery so should be arriving soon.

    Diezel 4x12 replacement casters and mounting plates?

    I just received the castors and they are a perfect fit. Anyone looking for the correct castors for their Diezel cab should look for Penn Elcom 5291 castors. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3716558524...=4429486&ssuid=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

    What speakers do you like with your Diezel?

    I have the FL212 with V30s and have been very impressed with it so far with my Hagen. I’ve only had rear loaded cabs until now. I’m not usually a fan of the Chinese V30’s but they sound great in the Diezel cab. Having said that, I've just swapped them out with Mesa V30’s and will be testing it...

    Diezel 4x12 replacement casters and mounting plates?

    Haha I know. I had the same issue finding the correct wheels for my Mesa cab. I think I’ve sourced possible replacements for the Diezel cabs. I found a thread on musiker-board.de from September last year : Beitrag im Thema 'Diezel Cabinets: Welche Rollen verwendet Diezel?' DeadboZ (post...

    Diezel 4x12 replacement casters and mounting plates?

    Same here! Looks like there’s an increasing demand for Diezel cab wheels just now. I found an old thread but there’s no info on the plate size unfortunately. https://www.rig-talk.com/forum/threads/what-castors-for-a-diezel-rl-2x12-cab-id-be-so-grateful-if-i-could-get-an-answer.237364/
