    New Diezel day and lesson learned…

    I bagged up a mint condition 2014 VH4 with 6L6 power tubes. And it sounds so glorious. I love it. Except I prefer the clean channel on my VHX much more and of course the flexibility, but sometimes the VHX can be paralyzing in terms of having too many options. I’ve never had one with 6L6 power...

    Diezel VH4 or other heads with EL34’s

    Hey folks! I have a number of diezels over the years and once again, regret selling my last VH4. Some one I know has one from 12/2022 with EL34’s for sale. Thoughts on how it might sound? I’m a total tube noob so I really don’t know what is what. My VHX and last VH4 had KT77’s. I mainly play...

    ENGL Savage MK2 120 FX Loop quick question.

    Hi folks, been many many years since I owned an ENGL so sorry for the dumb question. I mainly have been a Diezel guy (VHX and VH4) but also have a Mesa Roadster. I always loved the parallel loops with the blend knob of the VH4 and also even the VHX (but I don't use FX with the VHX as I love the...

    Great VHX tutorial.

    Since owning diesel since the 2000s… the honeymoon phase has ended with my VHX and 100% still is my favorite amp. I cannot believe how versatile and fun this amp is. Check out this in-depth video someone put up:

    Changing out speakers in an old Diezel Cab. (Is it worth it?)

    Hi folks, please see my set up for now. (Mesa Roadster coming soon. I have major Boogie GAS right now and honestly... I feel the VHX is the only diezel I will ever need. It is everything I want in a diezel) I always had the cab on the right for years. A Rear Loaded Diezel cab from around 2007...

    FS: Diezel 4X12 V30's with the old Vintage Grill.

    Hey folks, selling my 2008 Diezel 4X12 with the old style Diezel vintage grill they no longer use. I opened up the back to find it has V30's as I was unsure. Only used at home in a smoke free environment and never blasted (yay for apartment living lol) too loud. Great condition, clean all around...

    New Diezel cab day! (VHX and VH4 goodness)

    Bagged a front loaded cab with G12's and wow does it sound so good with the VHX. But the whole rig really comes to life when I add the old Rear loaded cab with V30's. I feel the FL is really tight, percussive and punchy. The RL fills out the bottom a bit. Not really playing my VH4 at al l since...

    Great idea for the VHX. (Probably already asked for but here goes)

    Still in the honeymoon phase with my VHX and adore it. My VH4 has not been turned on once. Right now I use a Voodoo Labs Ground Control Pro to switch between my presets and favorite voices. The FX sound really really good and I hope they add more. I also have a Line 6 Helix which I use for...

    Diezel VHX Review. 2022. The Diezel to end all Diezel's? Maybe... More like the future...

    Rather than trying to type out a super long text review... here is a rambling 15 minute review of the VHX. Absolutely. Love. This. Amp! :P

    VHX Warranty question

    Hello, if I buy a VHX used off Reverb and it was new in 2021... does it still have the factory Warranty? @Leo Diezel I know they come with a 3 year warranty right? Debating getting it used or off Sweetwater brand new but they have a demo unit for $400 off. Thanks!

    Pulling the Trigger on a VHX... (I think I am... Just some questions)

    Hey everyone! Been GASsing hard for a VHX. I have had a Herbert, early 2000's VH4 and a 2020 VH4 now. I use a Ground Control Pro for my VH4 and a number of pedals (standard FX like on the VHX) and love Midi presets. So here are some questions I have. Is it worth waiting for a dealership to get...

    Channel insert volume drop

    Probably a dumb question so I apologize but is there a specific pre amp tube for the channel insert 1 or any for that matter? I ask as when ever I kick on Ch1's channel insert to use chorus etc I get a bit of volume loss and also really nasty distorted notes. I tried a few chorus pedals as well...

    2020 Diezel VH4 Microphonic Feedback/Squeal and channel switch "chirp" issue

    Ok so see video below... explains it all. I bought a brand new Diezel VH4 about Feb on 2020 and it was a dud. After 2 months the transformer or something went after I spent weeks replacing and spending money on tubes.... so the dealer then just sent me a new one and the repair shop in Cali...

    EQ Pedals... Parallel or Serial Loop... or in Front? (also OD pedal question)

    Long time folks! (Did a search in the search bar and nothing came up, hence why I am posting so apologies if talked about) I just got a MXR 10 Band EQ as I had a store credit so I loaded up on a bunch of pedals. Mainly wanted the EQ pedal to sparkle up my clean chorus tone on channel 1 or have...

    Show off your pedal boards or FX you run with your Diezel's?

    Did a search and did not find any posts for the most part. But what pedals or FX are you running with your Diezel's? Namely the VH4? Here is my mess below, cleaning it all up as we speak. I just got a brand new VH4 straight from Germany as a replacement since they could not fix my original...

    Thanks Pandemic, RIP my VH4.

    Just venting as I am so frustrated right now. I bought a brand spanking new VH4 back in I think January or February. Was fine for a few weeks then had some major tone issues. Both Peter's were great in their response and troubleshootingvia email and we thought it was the pre amp tubes or the...

    VH4 Channel 1. (EQ in the Loop?)

    Yes I did the search and read the various threads but wanted some more insight into making the VH4 channel one "cleaner". I know most will say they love the clean tone already and I think it's ok (I don't think it's horrible, but it's hard going from a Mesa Mark V clean to the VH4 clean. They...

    So something is definitely wrong with my brand new VH4.

    Ok so hear me out, as this may sound weird. I bought a brand new Diezel VH4 new sealed from Check Levin's Washington Music Center about 9 weeks ago. It was brand new for sure.... sealed in the box and everything. I brought this weird issue up I am about to try to describe up once or twice in...

    Changing to EL34's and also Stereo Cabinet Question. (VH4)

    Hey folks, while I owned and used a VH4 and VH4S for years back in the early to mid 2000's; I have some noob questions about swapping tubes. I also have some questions about my old 2008 Diezel 4X12, that maybe some folks can help me out with. So with my brand new 2018 VH4 I just got... can i...
