Hafler Triple Giant Designed By Bogner
I've owned mine for a very long time. The preamp sounds AWESOME when it's working right. I've always had problems with it, I use to bring it in all the time for repair. Again the three channels (2 - Dirty & 1 - Clean) sound AMAZING and I'm pretty sure I'll never get rid of it, even though I don't trust it to function on stage anymore. If you can find one buy it, I'm sure you'll love it.

Interviewer: What pedals did you use on this project [Engines of Creation]?
Satriani: We had much success with the Moogerfooger pedals, the Fulltone Ultimate Octave, a DigiTech Whammy pedal and a preamp called a Hafler Triple Giant.
Interviewer: Were there any in particular that really gave you that electronica feel?
Satriani: The Hafler Triple Giant had the most robotic distortion, totally devoid of warmth and feeling. But, in the context of a song like "Borg Sex," it was perfect!
"Bogner Triple Giant thru Mesa Boogie Strategy 400 (ABY Pedal) mixed with a Peavey 6505. I like to have the mids & highs of the Bogner at around 1 or 2 O'clock, and the Lows at 1 O'clock, exclusively thru the Sharp Gain channel. The 6505 was used to fill out the tone with more dirt and fatness."
