Overview

Get big, focused, single-channel tone in a versatile size.

The old-school nature of the Diezel Big Max 45W amp head is quite a departure for the company. Unlike some designs that feature several channels, tone-shaping switches, MIDI and more the Big Max’s single-channel construction is purity in its finest form. This KT77-powered amplifier is carefully engineered to take you from its bell-like cleans to Diezel-grade distortion. The engineers feel that benefits such as unparalleled touch sensitivity, the amp’s pedal-friendly nature, and ease-of-use make the Big Max one of the most exciting amps in the company's history. In a world of unending electric guitar gear options, you’ll find the simplicity of plugging into, and cranking up the Big Max a life-changing tonal experience.

More Tone than Meets the Eye
When it comes to single-channel tube amps, not many can come close to the sheer versatility of the Big Max. Not only does the gain control take you through every shade of drive imaginable, but you’re sure to love every stop along the way.

The Benefits of a Short Signal Path
From the very first note, you’ll understand the tonal magic that comes with the Big Max’s shortened signal path. Without a truckload of switches and controls in its way, your notes are free to sing out of your speaker the same way you played them.

45W of KT77 Power
To get the most from the Big Max, Diezel chose to power the amp with a duet of KT77 power tubes. Well known for their clarity, bottom end, and reliability, the KT77s give this amp plenty of punch for any situation.
