@M@ttC3: Yeah, that's what I'm hoping as I have various ECC83s floating about and it's a nice cheap(-ish) fix. This thing hasn't had new tubes since I got it 2nd hand though, so if I find it's those I have a brand new set to stick in, if I know how to bias it. Diezel have a nice easy tech doc...

(FYI this thing seems to be whistling far too easily on Ch3, so although there's quite a lot of gain here, I think something has gone microphonic to whistle this easily)

Hello! Think it's new tube time for my XTC. I haven't re-tubed this before. Any guides on biasing it? There's various ways to bias a 100W EL34 amp, any particualr one recommended for these? Is it set a voltage on a test-point job? Or some kind of in-line current thing? Or do people use somethng...

Hi all. Just bought myself a second hand bogner red pedal so I can try pull off a poor man's more mobile version of my real Ecstasy's red channel on the more fun/less serious kinda gigs and open mic nights where I'm not taking my own amp/cab. Any idea how long these last on battery? Obvs I can...

I need a new bolt for the clamp of my tremol-no. I tried emailing their "support" and "info" email addresses, but it just bounces back. I presume this is just a standard very small allen-head bolt, so I don;t need to necessarily . Anyone know what size/thread it is? Is it metric or imperial...

As per the title... I've got 3 Diezel cabs: a German 212 Front Loaded w/V30s, a German 212 Rear Loaded with Tone Tubby Hempcones (I presume the 4040s), and an old tatty ex-rental US-made 412 Rear Loaded with V30s. The 4x12 often seems a little bit pokey and harsh compared to the other 2 (even...

Or you could do it once. Then do a demo video so we can all geek out and directly compare the tonal difference of modded vs unmodded in an identical setup. Then either do the other one, or put the first one back based on your taste. :LOL:

Interesting to see a couple of mentions of BKP Rebel Yells. My 2 most played guitars recently have BKP Nailbombs in the bridge (the alnico rather than ceramic variant). I love them with my Diezels, but have been very tempted to try Rebel Yells next time. What guitars are you using them in? I...

You may be better off asking at the morningstar forum if you haven't already. If you're lucky hopefully someone here will have both. Then you're definitely in the right place! But if not, going to the controller forum is the best bet. I don't have a VHX, but like almost all MIDI effects things...

I only ever use a boost with my mid gain channel to add more flavours, not the full heavy sound. Currently using a Chase Bliss Brothers as it's MIDI controlled and got more options, but in terms of instant gratification, set and forget with very little knob fiddling I can't get away from my...

Hi all, How reliable is your MIDI switching? Is it totally 100% rock solid for you? I use an RJM PBC, and did use an RJM Mastermind LT. I often find that at least once about every maybe 5 hours I'll get at least one time my Hagen doesn't switch patch. I'm saying that because it averages about...

Hi folks. My MIDI jack doesn't feel the most "tight" on my Hagen (or Herbert for that matter). Obvs had years of use being plugged and unplugged all the time. Last night at practice MIDI didn't seem to work, I went wiggling, didn't find anything wrong or loose, then it seemed to work fine. So...

BTW I reckon my Bogner can actually get me closer to the older Tool sound (and a lovely Jerry Cantrell kinda sound). If I'm live mono it's normally just the Diezel though for me. But I reckon Adam Jones live 2 Diezel VH4s (one an old Blueface) + Vintage Marshall bass head is a similar enough...

My XTC 20thA sounds lovely with my Hagen or Herbert

Some are 8, some are 16, so can't say either way.

Was going to be trying to run 2 amps at once and obvs a lot of multichannel amps change output phase on different channels from what I hear. No one normally cares, but if you're running 2 amps at the same time it matters. I can program phase flips to one of the amps per preset on my RJM PBC so...

My favourite Bogner is my Ecstasy 20th Ani with EL34s. I’ve never played any other Bogners so can’t comment on those!

Yeah. I just had another idea. Got a multimeter and there’s basically no isolation between the jack grounds on the strymon. So definitely a possibility of a ground loop. I might make up some cables with a floating ground for the right hand amp and see how that works. If not, then look at some...

That’d work in front (which I already fixed with an RJM PBC), but won’t take 2 different amps fx sends to 2 pedal inputs (or the returns) will it?

Hi all. I’ve got 2 amps (Diezel Hagen and Bogner XTC) and was planning on using both of them live, normally I’m one or the other. If I run both at once I have to put an iso transformer in the input of one, else get horrible ground loop hum. So that’s sorted. But if I run out one amps mono fx...
