Oh come on now!!! You cant leave me hanging like that!!! Life changing? Now this must be good!! Elmwood maybe? I know your'e not far from me 12 minutes. You just got the Axe not to long ago. This one is going to get my mind going!
I have just bought another XTC and I have an opportunity to trade a guitar for a Diezel Herbert. I have not head the Herbert before but the review here and a lot of reading I have done makes me want one. I play rock/hard rock/metal but I like nice cleans. I like the XTC but I hate how the red channel is so over compressed. I am/was going to have it modded but I'd like opinions on the Herbert. Thanks in advance!!
Having owned the 101b and the XTC classic, I can say that the Classic has a much better clean and the Red channel is more open. That being said, If you can find an old Egnater Mica TOL100 (Pre Rocktron), I have to say has the best cleans of any channel switcher that I owned, and it is right up there with the Bogner as far as tone is concerned
