Thinking about a new Cab for my Diezel VH4

[jonl]

Thanks for all the help! These are all great options!

Out of every 4x12 cab I've played, Bogner has sounded the best (not the Uberkab, just their regular 4x12 loaded without whatever speakers you want). And I've tried a lot: Bad Cat, Mesa, Marshall, Diezel, VHT, Framus, Orange (the black Orange 4x12 is pretty sweet, though), Splawn (very similar to Bogner), Soldano, and on and on and on.

I too have played/tested nearly every cab worth mentioning here (mostly 4x12s) one might consider as an all around well balanced cab for our style. The Mesa standard and oversized was great. The Bogner was obviously perceived as "thin" sounding in comparison to the above mentioned.

The Diezel 4x12 had them all tap out in the first few seconds of the first round - hands down. The Diezel tone-wise and flexibility was a clear winner in my more-or-less exhausting finding overall. Also, for the record, all the cabs I tested were fitted with Celestion Vintage 30 (BTW - the 30 signifies 30.48 cm or 12 inches) 60W 8-Ohm speakers.

I don't understand what you're saying. What cab is an "all around well balanced cab for our style"? And why was the Bogner "obviously" perceived as "thin," and in comparison to WHICH "above mentioned" cab? Because there is no above mentioned cab in your post... Compared to Diezel? Mesa?

Rear-loaded Diezel Cab is the answer IMO. Also, I apologize, because I own the cab that you missed out on that was at Brad's
The Diezel VH4 cooperates with Greenbacks as well, surprisingly, despite being such a chunk-machine.

Yeah, and this from the guy who stated:

I gauge my playing by the highest string, and it's one string too far away...

Why the sad face on the quote? I thought you got a kick out of that one.

I play Baritone 6 strings and regular 6 strings, so I have nothing against lower tunings
