    Diezel VH4 tubes

    What is it about the JJ that you like in the V1 position? I've been thinking of trying one in V1 of my VH4 as I've REALLY enjoyed the JJ's in the preamp of my Marshall TSL for years, it makes that amp for me (now have a tungsol in v1 though, just kicks more ass).

    VH4 or Herbert for my needs?

    I was in the same boat, I had a real time picking between all 4 diezel amps currently available! I knew I was after a vh4 but kept thinking the Einstein was probably more my cup of tea sound wise however the interface wasn't ideal for me. So I went for amps at the opposite sides of the...

    New (and first ever) Diezel Amp(s) day!

    Considering I've been playing the VH4 between 11pm and 1am for the last 3 nights, pretty well!! No doubt I've managed to avoid the police being called due to how bloody great the amp sounds :lol: :LOL: . Thanks alot! I LOVE the amps SO MUCH. I've not experienced such a love affair with an...

    New (and first ever) Diezel Amp(s) day!

    Thanks to you all for your kind words, it's great to be part of the family! I'm never leaving :D Hmm yeah that's odd. My friend was told by Peter Stapfer that it was a 2007 shell with a 2009 vh4 inside. Could possibly be an older shell, it's not really important :). Nah, it's a very very...

    The most EPIC New Gear Day Ever... (for lil' ole' me anyway)

    I agree. Ch2 was probably the channel that had the most mystery around it for me before buying my VH4 and was excited to give it a burl. It does ACDC pretty fuckin well, even with EMG's :lol: :LOL:, but cranking the gain to about 8 got me into heavier Gunners territory and was pretty...

    New (and first ever) Diezel Amp(s) day!

    It's been a long road but, here it is - the destination. After MUCH MUCH research, consideration and even a little bit of guessing, I managed to choose a couple diezels to buy without having been able to play any of them, ever. I picked up a 2009 (in a 2007 chassis) VH4 and 2009 Diezel...

    Hertbert Wish List...

    If i were to have a 'dream herbert' it would contain these mods. 1- gain control for the clean channel. 2 - reverb - controls for each channel. 3 - sweepable mid cut/boost :D. 4 - footswitchable -/+ for ch2. I think that's it... for now Hmm, I suppose the idea of 6 powertubes is also a...

    What tubes sound best with Einstein? Opinions please.

    I didn't know that about the schmidt, that's incredibly awesome however. Do you suppose it would be accessable in a similar fashion to how one accesses the power tube distortion on a VH4?

    Less gain = more tone

    my philosophy is = more volume, less gain... or should I say - just add enough gain to get to your sound ;)

    new Schmidt Pics for distributors and such . . .

    Has the schmidt's footswitch undergone any cosmetic changes? I noticed the font on the new schmidt is different to the cursive type font it used to have, which makes me think about the font on the footswitch. Has that changed also?

    Your Diezel Vid

    You guys should send a shirt to that guy because his videos have officially sold me on a Schmidt, when I sell some stuff ;). It sounds like an absolutely fantastic amp from those vids.

    Diezel Einstein another clip

    That was quite enjoyable, great stuff! ;) Edit: my bad, I listened to the wrong clip - that comment was for the clip above it with the bogner212. Still, the comment applies for both clips.

    Peter's Birthday :)

    What better way to use my first post (apart from starting a thread entitled "new 'every diezel amp' day!") than to wish the man himself Happy Birthday? Happy Birthday Peter! Here's to many more. Cheers!
