Diezel Hagen - Channels and Sounds

[RequiemWraith]

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude, this video made me hard!!! I must have one of these amps!!

[djRGBG]

Good to know my Einstein isn't outdated :) Typical Diezel Sound even though it certainly has it's own flavor.

I like the more VH-4ish look of that thing. It's unique

[Fab4forlifexO]

Dude The best sounding Diezel on the planet... peter nailed it with hagen! sits between herbert and vh4 best of both worlds.

[sleazychestnut]

Still the best hagen demo i've been able to find.

[McDachpappe]

hi reza,

what BKN pickup are you playing? I also play a hagen... and I am considering getting a nailbomb (currently seymore trembucker).

I guess the painkiller is a little to hot for my taste?!?

any experience or recommendations?

MCD

[bmwm3cs]

It's H-aw-gen....

[givemeajackson]

too muddy for my taste. could be the settings tough, i hate midscoop.

[RezaMatix]

@givemeajackson You should watch this one then... youtube.com/watch?v=68EFY0I-Sx­E

[prabowoputra]

great tone, what speakers are in that cab? do they offer the cab with white tolex too?

[themodernguitarist]

Channel 3+4 sounds like a VH4 meets a Dual Recto, IMO.

[RezaMatix]

@themodernguitarist check out my Bareknuckle pickup video, see if you still think it sounds like a recto.

[themodernguitarist]

@RezaMatix

Yup, sounded more like a Diezel there.

Not only that, you made me realize how poor I am. Diezel + BKP + Gibson = Me crying in a corner.

[RezaMatix]

@themodernguitarist No worries mate, you would be surprised how it all adds up if you put a savings together over time. It took me ALONG time to buy this gear, lots of hard work and saving...but in the end its worth it. one less starbucks a day and you will be there in no time.

[themodernguitarist]

@RezaMatix

Maybe one day, but with my current job, I don't see myself getting a Diezel in the near future.

[weseastham]

Awesome vid man. That little riff towards the end of your playing on ch 3 is super cool.

[RezaMatix]

@weseastham thanks!

[breathingincolor]

First of all 1) I want you to look in the mirror and tell yourself your sorry for saying you suck! ( music is subjective and knows not 'best' 'fastest' etc... And 2) I'm buying this amp!!! Oh yes I am

[RezaMatix]

@slimmetalpickn thx!

[buckster7777]

holy shit that sounds good! To me it sounds more organic than the VH4. The crunch channel is glorious and the heavy channel is nice and brutal not to mention wonderful cleans.

[wasabithunderborn]

Nice playing there mate! Useful review.

[RezaMatix]

@wasabithunderborn Thx!

[AsRocker1991]

Amazing clean, eargasmic channel 2 and damn heavy channel 3, srsly that amp is masterpiece. Regarding your playing, i just loved it !

[RezaMatix]

@AsRocker1991 Thx!

[WARinMYhead1]

i enjoyed the video man! dumb question but how do you get such a great sound just from the 57 and no post processing? i might just be using a shitty mixer, but i cant get a good sound at all when i use a 57. instead i use a shure pg condenser!

[RezaMatix]

@WARinMYhead1 Use whatever works for you man, I just threw the 57 on it this time, didnt even think about placement, I have got it sounding better now..

[jamesagent86]

love your channel 3 face

[Joshpol]

Sounds great. Can you tell us what is the main difference between VH4 and Hagen?

[RezaMatix]

@Joshpol this can be a LONG explanation, but I have videos of the VH4 posted here as well, I suggest you check them out. The Hagen is its own beast, better clean channel, much more looser gain structure, MORE gain, clearer sounding ch.4 , so many other details. Its a whole new amp. Ch.3 of the VH4 is still amazing, but the Hagen has that little "Extra" factor.

[Joshpol]

@RezaMatix Thanks!

[AdamDallas]

Loving that timefactor sound! Very lush and thick!

[RezaMatix]

@AdamDallas Yeah, its really nice. worth every penny.

[cisspcism]

How loud was the amp when you recorded this? I think my problem when micing amps for recordings like this is I have the volume way to loud.

[RezaMatix]

@cisspcism not too loud, master was at 10oclock.

[xMufloNx]

Thanx for the video! Are these EL34 or 6l6?

[RezaMatix]

@xMufloNx EL34 ships with this amp.

[ftfkeys]

what type of el34's are these? what brand of tubes?



[RezaMatix]

@ftfkeys They are the latest handpicked EL34BHT. Peter Diezel gets special tubes for his amps :)

[Treetopper]

What verb on the clean? (nice!) what was gain on ch 2 set at?

[RezaMatix]

@Treetopper Digitech Hardwire Reverb, gain was about 3 oclock...

[CatastrophicG]

heavy pounding channel 3 great! which speakers are in that Diezel cab? V30's? very interesting this amp..

[RezaMatix]

@CatastrophicG V30s...

[Piplodocus]

Which cab dude? Old US one? German one? V30s/Hemp cone/G12K100? Front/Rear loaded???

Nice vid BTW! :)

[RezaMatix]

@Piplodocus Front Loaded V30s.

[steinmetzify]

Dude.......am in love w/channel 3. This is brutality of the best order.

Good playing too, suits channel 3 very well. All in all, good demo. Thanks man!

[jamesagent86]

huge balls!!!!!



[brickford27]

How does this amp "feel" when playing compared to a vh4? is it little or much looser, is it as unforgiving as a vh4 or less unforgiving?

[RezaMatix]

@brickford27 feels much more forgiving and quite a bit looser but retaining tightness..

[brickford27]

@RezaMatix OK so who do i ROB and STEAL from to buy this LOL

[tuvokzeta9]

Wow that is one cool nasty beast of an amp. I'd love to try it. Keep posting clip of this amp. I was very impressed with the clean channel. Very chimey sounding. Thanks for posting.

[saxonfireband]

Sounds awesome man...I guarantee it sounds even better in person. I own a Herbert and I'm scared to demo the Hagen incase Diezel dent my bank account again. Question - What do you have plugged into the Parallel FX Return?

[RezaMatix]

@saxonfireband I believe its the Digitech Harmony man...

[RezaMatix]

@wazhumalafo Eventide Timefactor delay, Digitech Hardwire Reverb, Mo-Faux Vibe pedal, Dimebag Wah...

[hvymtl28208]

Would have enjoyed hearing more of the amp without all the effects

[RezaMatix]

@hvymtl28208 Or you could have been happy to get a chance to hear it the way I took the time to present it, life is what you make it dude, there is plenty of DRY parts in this video...

[iocomposer]

Yeah man. Sounds great. Congrats on the new toy...

[RezaMatix]

@iocomposer thanks buddy!

[Evaninja17]

Epic!
