Actually I feel of course very fortunate to own such great gear ( I'm Not rich) so I am very thankful. But I was contemplating selling one of them and honestly I think I like the Einstien over the herbert only because it truly has a very organic naturalness to it whereas the herbert has a modern compressed feel to it. Not only is the einstien more affordable to an everyday working guy but it also does metal VERY well , I have read other forums that state it doesn't have a true metal sound and I would disagree. The Herbert is a very "in yo face" metal amp no doubt, They both have VERY pristine cleans that I would go as far to say that would fit in a country or blues style very well. feel free to ask anything you need to and I will answer your questions as best I can.
1st.. off, killer band bro.. Gotta come check you out sometime.. My cover band plays every weekend around the Wis Dells area. I sing and play lead..everything from Van Halen to Sevendust..and all in between. Keep rockin'
2ndly, I had a Herbie years back... and tho my ears, ability and knowledge has grown since then, I remember not liking it too much. Great for single note riffing, chugga type stuff, nice clean... but very, very tight and compressed and hifi.. chords lost string separation and definition, lack of harmonics. The Einstein interests me cuz it seems the most organic and open...but still has that diezel thump and lower end. Currently have a Gower Killer Kali++ (amazing amp!!!

)... recently picked up a 100watt 5153 as a backup to my Kali...boost ch 2 with a bad monkey (all level, no added gain)... actually a fun amp to play and ALOT of amp for the money. Suffices my home practice needs and main rig backup. Cheers bro
