The Amps:

Diezel Herbert
The Diezel Herbert is a 180-watt fire breather that can go from dynamic cleans to ultra-tight distortion. These 30 Tone Models deliver that Diezel signature definition and tightness perfect for modern and classic metal tones. The collection includes all 3 distinctly voiced channels captured through a variety of cabs, mics and outboard gear.

Bogner Uberschall
The Bogner berschall is a renowned high-gain guitar amp, prized for its all-tube distortion and clear string separation. These 25 Tone Models deliver searing lead and rhythm tones with tight and powerful bass. The Uberschall is popular among players of extended-range and drop-tuned guitars, akin to those used by bands like Korn, Tool, Slipknot and Smashing Pumpkins. The collection includes both clean and high-gain Tone Models and features several stomps to tighten and drive the amp into brutal territory.

Soldano SLO-100
The SLO-100 redefined high-gain amplification in 1987. When it was introduced by Mike Soldano it was one of the first amp heads to feature powerful harmonics and impeccable gain, sustain and responsiveness. These 25 Tone Models features clean, drive and high-gain tones with several using a TS-9 and Furman PQ-3, captured with a variety of settings, speakers and other outboard gear to achieve a wide range of tones for hard rock to modern metal.

Peavey 5150 Block Letter
The Peavey 5150 is one of the most iconic high-gain amps in history and instantly recognizable on any stage. Renowned for its bloom and juicy harmonic saturation, the amp was quickly adopted by many top metal guitar players. These 20 Tone Models feature a variety of captures including some with stomps and with 6 different cabs to deliver a wide range of skull-crushing, gig-ready tones.
