Put on headphones to hear my wizard Diezel tone hear
Sounds awesome! I think Diezels blend well with brighter, more cutting amps...they really fill out the tone.

Sounds killer, as always man!!! If I ever get down to your area again I'm gonna hit you up!
You KT88 guys need to try KT90s....killer tube with mids like a 34 and the lows of an 88. Tried them in the D60 I had at the time and it was easily an improvement on the stock 88s...and I like 88s in that amp.
Thanks man! Bring the Larry back for another visit!
Hell ya that’s why I felt tooSounds awesome! I think Diezels blend well with brighter, more cutting amps...they really fill out the tone.
How about sell me one Larry too . Lol jk but you can if you want lolI will! And ill probably have a second larry by that point, for science!
Hell ya that’s why I felt too
Are you the one who calls MTL2 a UL on steroids ?I think my favorite 2-amp tone I've ever had was my UL and a VH4. I'm sure the Herbert/MTL would be equally killer.

Pretty cool stuff . Love wizard and fryette is a cool dude tooYeah. The UL was my favorite amp until I got my first MTL. The MTL just takes it up another notch...especially with the KT88s. Still have my original el34 on the right in that video.
Here's my Wizard MTL KT150.... the KT88 loaded Wizard of Death!
Fryette/Wizard are among my favorite amps ever. The articulation, speed of the attack, and dynamics are similar I think and the big part of why I'm so into them. The high notes of both are among the most open/uncompressed of any amps I've owned. They're very similar amps in the former respect, but very different in many other ways...can definitely justify owning both even though they cover similar territory.
The Fryette/VHT I've owned have offered a tremendous amount of saturation which contradicts common opinion and the "dry" descriptions most seem to have. There's also this gritty quality to the gain structure and juicy but open feel under the fingers that I love. Juicy and open together don't seem possible when you have an amp with such little compression, but to me they somehow achieve that feel. The exception to all of the former is the Series II D60 and D120 I had. They were very open and not capable of the same saturation as the older models I've owned and came off very "dry" to me. So much that I returned both within a week. Don't know what changed, but didn't like them.
The Wizards have even more articulation, similar or even more immediate attack, but differ in the low end to me. It's more of this drier & harder thud/thwack if you will vs. the slightly more round, gritty, and saturated low end response the VHT/Fryettes seem to have. Hard to describe, but easy to hear/feel in the room. Both very tight, but different in the feel & sound to me.
There's just this rock solid "quality" to the notes/tone of both manufactures that I've not heard in other amps, except maybe some older Mark series amps. Hard to describe and hate to use the "O" word, but the notes and tone just seem very organic or natural and they just breathe and pick up and express all the little nuances of your playing
