Im back to playing diezel amps again, ive been gone a few years but now im a herbert owner again. Back in 2008 i had to make a hard choice of keeping either my engl se or the herbert and i made a bad mistake :doh: selling the herbert, oh how i have missed that amp. Not only was it the wrong choice but 6 months later the engl brokedown and i was stuck dealing with trying to get it repaired and i just wasnt happy with the way they treated me :cry: In the past peter diezel has always been helpful and stands behind his amps.

My favorite amp in the lineup is the herbert, this will be my 3rd herbert. I also owned a einstein and early vh4 but the herbert was always a better fit for me.

I used to post under the names zao and zombieland.

I needed some xtra cash for xmas and had to choose between my herbert and engl se and i sold the herbert, the amp was a great amp but at that time the engl se was my main amp and favorite. i always figured i would save up and buy another one 6 months later but i ended up buying some more guitars and also had issues with my engl se and had to deal with getting it repaired, so it was a mistake selling it the but im happy now that i have a 2008 herbert coming tomorrow one and if its as good as my 2007 herbert i will love it.
 
Welcome back. Nothing else oozes tone like a Diezel. We are like boomerangs.

I like to think of it more as a cataclysmic explosion of tone.
 
Welcome back, nice to read you're back in Herbert-Loveland too...

Peace,
V. :thumbsup:
 
Fedex came but nobody was home and no new amp day for me now.
Maybe tomorrow will be better.
 
Welcome back :thumbsup:

There's just something about a Diezel that keeps us ( Well ) :D :D :D :D
 
Come on Tom, you know by now you are supposed to call in sick to work on new amp days! :doh:


Post pics when you get that Herbert in your possession!
 
Thanks guys, the amp arrived today and i only got to spend about 20 min playing it, i started off in ch2+ with the mid cut on and both mid cut knobs at 12:00, i always liked ch2 the best. I cant wait to get home and play it some more. Just from the brief time i spent with the amp it seems a bit brighter than my last herbert and i noticed the pre tubes are EH and that might be the reason since i always liked a Rft and chinese in the pre of my old amp, I bought the amp from eddyrox and hes a good dude.
 
:rock: Right on man. Having the Herbert and the SE makes me a happy dude. Glad you got your Herbie back. They are great amps for sure. :thumbsup:
 
today was my best sounding day, i was kinda searching for the tone i wanted and i was really close but today i found it, after i got done playing i just smiled.
 
i had the engl se
after a while i bought a herbert

i was always changing something with the Engl(eq and push buttons) the se had a mid spike that bugged me all the time (but i have to admit that the rythem on that amp was ground shaking)i didnt play the se anymore, the herb was plug and play and the amp of choice

after a year i traded the se for a soldano decatone and never looked back


BTW: it where the problems you had that gave me the extra push on selling the Engl, normally i dont sell gear but it was the best thing i did.
I mailed Soldano about the amp i bought and got mail from Mike him self the next day.
Both Peters: contact their customars faster than the speed of light and the best is that P. Diezel is on the forum constantly!
