New Amps Pic!

[jesserides2005]

Received 'em the other day. Best tone I've ever heard. I'll probably stick with the Boogie cabs, but the rest of my amp collection is gone!

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

wow. i wish i had that kind of money. an einstein and herbert right? (still learning diezel's products). any more pics? how do you have them set up?

Awesome... I recently picked up an Einstein myself (using it with a Roadster 2x12). I was eyeing a Herbert also, but the 180 watts seemed a little too much for me. Is the Herbie waaay loud or is it tamable at home?

Aren't you special?

Adam Jones from TOOL is using a Herbert now instead of his DR.

jtb226: I can't really afford them either, that's why I had to sell a whole lot of stuff to pay for them! All I'm using is an Intellifex. No more need for tube screamers, or any extra boost pedals. It's all in the amp!

fredster: The Herbert is waaaaay loud! That's why I bought the Einstein also. I'll use the Einstein for about 95% of my gigs. Clubs, Bars, Weddings, etc. I got the Herbert to use for those very special "Outdoor" big-gigs that come along every once in awhile! BTW, my Einstein is the 50w model and is "plenty loud" for typical use.

phyrexia: Not special, just broke but Happy! :wink:

Life's and Wife's trials and tribulations

You know, I can personally recommend a great therapy group in case you're thinking of adding another piece within this lifetime

I recently got to demo the VH4, Man what a beast! Very versatile.They are great amps, but not in the tone spectrum i look for...... 8)

According to my wife, I won't need a good Therapist, I'll need a good Coroner if I buy any more "stuff"! :lol:

ursinus: I've never played the VH4 so I can't comment on 'em?

I've been using Boogie amps since '89 & I still like 'em but I have to be honest, these Diezel's are in a total different league in my opinion. I actually dial them in similiar to my old Mesa's, but there's something in the tonestack that gives me the frequencies and touch sensitivity and that "Brownish Midrange Chewyness?" that I was never able to get out of a Boogie? I don't know if that makes any sense or not, & I'm sure it's totally particular to my tastes & technique? I still think Mesa's are incredible amplifiers, I just like the Diezel's better.

peace,

Beautiful amps! Can you get a very heavy kinda distortion out of the Einstein?! How does it sound in terms of 'heaviness' compared to the Herbert?! Apologies for the vague questions!

Here are some of mine, Not as fancy as yours though.
