So I finally played a Diezel today......

Why not get both? VH4s and a Herbert make a great w/d/w rig!

Awesome!
That........is my ULTIMATE goal....
baby steps here.......

 

[moltenmetalburn]

I'm thinking ill add a VH4 to my Einstein!!!

alas, baby steps here too...

 

[Mailman1971]

Man....I am SOOO DIGGING the VH4!!
Its got this "perfect" sound from this amp.
LIke for Heavy metal....I can get it dialed PERFECT.
Hard Rock...SAME!
Crunchy Riffs / Hair Metal..........
I cant find a weak spot on this amp.
And I am a VERY HARD CRITIC on my tone.
Ask my band mates........they were ready to kill me!

Herbert and Einstein are Diezel's best I think. Channels 2 and 4 on the VH4 is bubblegum territory and 100% WORTHLESS. I fuck with my friend all the time about it..he spent $4k on 2 doorstop channels for no reason. I put my Einstein against his VH4s channel 1 and 3 and sit back and watch the look on his face. It's really sad and I feel bad for him but I warned him. I played the VH4 before any other Diezel and never got the big deal but channels 1 and 3 are killer. Then I tried the Einstein and walked out of the store after trying it for 2 months almost daily.

And yes they are over priced, the Herb is not worth $4k and the VH4 for the same is a joke. I paid $3300 for the Einstein, too much but I love the amp and couldn't get it cheaper. Besides I will never understand the mistery behind needing more than 2 channels. If you have the money then get your OWN custom made amp with 2 channels since it's all you'll ever need..anymore than that and you're playing with knobs instead of playing.

BUT, if you have the money and can afford it..you can buy a turd with a blonde wing and enjoy it if you want, if it's what you want get it.

I really dont know what to make of this quote.
So when is there a Price fix on amps? If its over a certain amount of money and this poster dont think its worth it then its a Joke? Glad you decide for everyone. Its only worth what you want to pay and what you think its worth. I love my VH4 and all the channels are usable and very playable. By the way you paid more for the Einstein then I did my VH4. But if you like it....more power to you and it must be worth it. Not slamming anyone here but its all in the ear of the player. People think Dumbles sound good for $40,000.00.....
I think they sound crappy but who am I to say?

Don't sweat it Dan, just be happy you got one of the greatest amps available. I'm jealous...I still want to make a trip downstate to have a mini amp fest. I honestly think that some people don't vibe with the VH4 because it's so tight. It doesn't hide anything, and gives you back pretty much exactly what you put in. Different strokes, right? But like I said in my reply, I would take a VH2 with just ch 2&4 and I'd be able to get by just fine.

 

[Mailman1971]

I really Dig channel 4 with the gain at noon the best!
Its like Channel 3 with the Gain on 3/4 but a 'little more'......
I could cover 90% of what I like to play on that channel.

But the amp is so damn versatile.
You should hear it in Stereo Bro........
Picked up that 2nd 4X12 and its litterally a WALL OF TONE!!!

Come on down and check it out!
Just had another Rig talker at my place a couple days back when he bought that Mark III and we had a little jam session / amp tryout.

Fun shit!

Well......they all had to go for me to snag the Diezel....
QUESTION : Was it worth it?


ANSWER : FUCK YES!!!!
The VH4 is such a SUPREME amp........I am still humbled.

Well........if I only knew what I was doing. I need the direction of the AMP GOD to help me....
He is the only TRUE AMP MASTER and Tone God.....

Hey dude, now that you mention it, the amp god came to me in a dream last night and said that you MUST sell me your VH4. He said it is the only way, and since he is the amp god I would defnitely listen to him before he smites you with fire and brimstone. I know it seems like I'm trying to pull a fast one on you but I can assure you that's not the case, you know me, I wouldn't do something like that Sorry for your loss, I'll be there tomorrow to pick it up bright and early

Not tonight but strangely enough I was drinking from the bottle of 190 proof Everclear (that I picked up while I was in Tennessee) last night before I went to bed. It could've been a hallucination but either way I wouldn't chance it, there's too much at stake. Think you could bubble wrap it for the ride? I don't want it bouncing around too much in the back seat on the way home.

Well........if you get the SECRET AMP you been talking about....we might be able to do a trade.

Now that's just downright offensive

Not sure how I missed the Amp God Chronicles the first time around, but I just read the entire thread and it was f'n hilarious! Man DBU, you owned that tranny!

 

[RJF]

Guys, I have horrible news. I put my Herbert up my nose and now it's gone. It seemed like a good idea at the time, until I decided I wanted play some guitar again.

Is it possible to sneeze this thing back out?
