I thought you Amp Forum {censored}ers were all about BREWTAL GAIN! :confused:

A good friend of mine just bought a Diezel. He's a producer who's done some hard rock/alternative/nu-metal albums (in fact, one of them is on Billboard right now) and I usually love his guitar sounds no matter what style of and he's recording.

Anyways, he just got a Diezel and he tells me he's using nothing else now. Will hear it in a couple of weeks when I go over to the studio but I'm really curious to hear it (I always thought the Mesa Boogie Triple Rect did that job well enough)

I noticed ENGL got a lot of mentions here, so which one is better? ENGL or Diezel? :confused:

8. Mesa Single Recto head
9. Peavey classic 50 (4x10)

1. traynor YCV40. current amp, first tube amp. will be matched with a marshall cab someday
2. fender deluxe 112+. this amp had no midrange. just treble. so the gain was "oh god, who turned 6 mutant chainsaws against eachother in a pit!?". the cleans were nice and it sounded decent using the middle pickups
3. fender bronco solid state. not too bad for a first amp. it's degraded with age, however. or i've simply developed better ears

Bogner Shiva (EL34's) greatest sounding all around Cln-Dist :)

Soldano SLO (6L6's) Great Lead tone, hi-fi clean.

Bogner XTC-Classic (EL34's) Very good all around tones.

VHT Pittbull Classic (EL34's) good amp, average.

Marshall 1959slp (Arrendondo Modified) Great at one thing, solos.

1) Two-Rock Custom Reverb: this thing rocked. A hell of a lot more versatile than I was expecting. I still have it)
2)JCM800 2203/2204: We all know why these rock.
3)Fender Deluxe Reverb: I've owned like 5 of these at various times. Awesome awesome awesome amps.
4)Framus Dragon: Searing marshall sound on the high gain channels, good cleans.




...and in last place my Judybox Electrogasm. Not because it didn't sound good. On the contrary, it was a freaking awesome amp. I put this amp in last place because the maker made me look really bad due to me recommending his amps only to have other customers of his face long long wait times, complete lack of communication (some are still waiting to hear back from him a year later), and other problems. I understand Al was/is really really sick and had some bad breaks, but I feel he should have had someone at least keep in contact with the customers. He granted refunds to everyone, but not until sooo much later. Cool amp, zero business sense.

To be honest, each amp did at least one thing pretty well, except for the Yamaha T100 - THE biggest piece of {censored} I ever owned in my life. I think I had a lemon, a lot of guys love theirs. I preferred the Marshall Mosfet head over the T100 by a LONG SHOT. How bad does an amp have to be to be set aside for a Marshall Mosfet? ;)
