Diezel Herbert

Ted, you'd like the Einstein, VH4, and Hagen more than the Herbert. The Einstein is one of my favorite Diezels, but they're hard to find. The Hagen is supposedly like the VH4 but more upper mids.

Or, you know... for that sound... a Calypso-modded 5150.

I love the herbert, i have the MK1, ive had it for almost 20 yrs and its one of my favorite amps of all time. I spend most of my time on Ch2 with a boost, i also like the clean channel, i played the V2 a few times but ch2 sounded the same to me and i didnt feel the need to upgrade just for the sake of a little more headroom in the cleans.

I would replace a pickup bf an amp, plus I can read between the lines, this is not the amp for me.

Maybe the Driftwood Atlas...

I’m pretty intrigued by the atlas. Mark Lewis comes up with some nasty tones. To my knowledge the mark channel is based on a triple recto slaved into a Herbert because he does this quite a bit. The other channel is supposedly the nightmare preamp circuit.

I got a v1 and that's one of my preferred amps. I bet many people having problems cutting live or in a band are using the mid cut in a way that give them no chance in a mix.

If someone wants to be heard in a live mix, typically a mid cut isn't what comes to mind. I'd want a mid boost...
