I paid $2200 for my used Herbert. It was about 2 years old but still in awesome condition. I feel very fortunate to have it, at first I was going to buy the new Mesa Boogie V. But then a friend of mine offerd to sell me his Herbert.

And to the person who mentioned that Diezels aren't being modded, that is an incorrect statement. I have seen others mod the Herbert's -/+ switch so it could be foot pedal controllable. Also I know that wilder amplification is building a new chip for the Herbert for midi CC's.

Pretty sure he definitely meant you don't see any Diezels being modded to change the SOUND of them... because it's not necessary...

100%!
If you took a Marshall and Removed everything you hate about them , and add everything you would want in a Head...You would have a Diezel!
 
I bought mine both brand new back in 04 and 07 cuz i was impatient!!! :doh: your welcome Papa!!
 
Thanks for all the responses, there are a few on here close to what I can afford (SOON)
 
Traded a Cameron CCV for my blueface VH4, so.... $3200

thats exactly what he meant. but you know rig-talk... everyone has puts everything you say under a microscope and scrutinizes the piss out of it......


Oh the Herbert paid 2800 for i bought in January of this year. It's a 2007 model. Little old but is in 100% mint condition. Guy bought it new and only used it in his room. Never did any gigs.

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. There's not mods to the guts or the tone - there's no need to. Diezels make most other amps seem like run-of-the-mill heads. Just my 2 cents.
 
I paid about $2600 for my Herbert and its pretty close to mint. I also own 2 Marshall Superleads, and believe me, you want a Diezel. One of my Marshall's is modded with Mercury Magnetics transformer upgrades and loaded with 6L6's and its still nowhere near Diezel status. Do us all a favor bro, DON'T SETTLE. Save your greenbacks and be patient, The Diezel will come...

I am glad to here someone with both say the Superleads aren't as nice. Because I am about to seal a deal on a VH4 :rock:
Very cool story behind this deal as well. Once its in my hands I will post up the story it's pretty cool, atleast I think so. :lol: :LOL:

Any story that involves the exchange of a Diezel amp is always a cool story for the recipient. :D

Looking forward to your thoughts on the amp and the story behind it. Make it happen!

I wasn't trying to be critical, I was only stating that people had made some changes to some of the Herbert amps (but not to the tone). I didn't realize he was talking about the tone. I do fully agree with his opinion of the Diezel tone, it is AWESOME.
