Goodday my friends,
New Diezel forum and amp user reporting for duty !
Let me start by showing my current setup:
A few weeks ago I had the luck to acquire myself an Diezel D-moll .
However, after a lot of playing/testing etc etc im not fully satisfied .
I'll describe my current setup real quick:
Guitar -> ISP decimator -> Ibanez tubescreamer -> D-moll (with Bogner 4x12 RL V30's)
Gmajor2 is in the loop and tuner is on compensated out, so pretty simple right ?
Problem:
The thing i'm not liking and can't seem to get rid of is a bunch of flubbyness in the low end register. To further clarify, I have tried a ton of different settings, also tried using a tubescreamer but without many succes. Guitars I have used for this is the Ibanez prestidge 2127FX (upgraded with SD pegasus-sentient set) and some various higher end schecters with different wood and pickup combinations. Oh, and i think it's wise to mention, d-moll is brand new and not modified, rest of the gear is also brand spanking new. Only the bogner cab has a year on it.
Btw, on CH3 the above "problem" occures, on CH1 and CH2 it's acceptable.
I was thinking, is this occuring because of the cab i'm using? The Bogner is currently my only cab and I have been using it with other combinations (axe-fx, dual recto, Engl savage, kemper, mark iv, 5150 etc). In my experience RL cabs tend to sound more bassy and les tight than FL cabs.
I have experienced this overly dark/bassy sound also with the earlier mentioned combinations, only in a less "annoying" way, those amps (modelers aside) had a fairly non-dark character to my ears so there was a nice compensation going.
Because the d-moll to my ears is a darker amp and more present in the low and low-mid area and the bogner RL cab also tends to be in that area, a conflict can arrise.
For the record, i'm playing downtuned metal in B and sometimes A, tightness is a must for me.
And now for (hopefully) the solution:
Will it help if I switch from the bogner cab to, let's say, a Mesa traditional 4x12 FL or Diezel 4x12 FL?
For the moment I'm just a bit let down by the sound i'm putting out and i'm hoping that I can find somewhat of an "fix" to my problem.
If anyone could shed some light on this that would be awesome!
Thanks in advance and kind regards
Nick
