Members TeRM Posted November 27, 2006 Members Share Posted November 27, 2006 I recently saw a live show in which the lead guitarist played a Diaz amp. My God... it was the most amazing sound I've ever heard. It seems to me to be the ultimate blues-rock amp. I looked them up on the internet, but there is very verrrry little information available on them. I can't seem to find any dealers, and it is unclear whether or not you can order an amp directly from Diaz. How would I go about purchasing one of these amps (assuming money is no object)? Which is the best model for blues/rock? Are there any famous artists who use Diaz or are there any great recordings that were made with Diaz amps? Anything else that I should know? Thanks!!!

Members Sordid1 Posted November 27, 2006 Members Share Posted November 27, 2006 They are supposed to be great amps but as stated very pricey. Plus Cesar Diaz passed away a couple years ago or so and that might hike up the price some since you can't get them anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 13bats Posted November 27, 2006 Members Share Posted November 27, 2006 these were designed by the late Cesar diaz i beleive SRV used to use them .
