Diezel Einstein Clips

[Mark_Palangio]

A friend of mine who lives in Canada bought this amp, and had it shipped to me to save him on shipping and custom costs, so he said I could keep it for a day or two and play around with it. It needs a boost pedal in front for high gain metal IMO, but it sounds incredible. Probably the tightest, clearest high gain tone I've ever heard. Such a great amp. Clean channel is beautiful as well. I did some quick clips this morning. I'm not the best at recording, and my setup is real cheap, but I just wanted to share them anyways. No post EQ or anything, I just recorded them and hosted them online.

Those sound VERY good. Despite them being raw! I am quite impressed ...

Thanks man! I don't really know much about mixing and doing EQ stuff to recordings. I should take the time to learn though. This amp records incredibly well though. This and the Engl Blackmore are the 2 easiest amps to record IMO, that I have tried.

That first clip gives me a strange dejavu feeling

Haha, yeah I always record that clip. I can compare the tones of all the amps I have that way...and I'm lazy.

Anyone else notice the 'Standy' switch?

Great clips, but the urban legend is that Einstein couldn't do elementary math, not spelling. Oh, hell, that's not even important - great clips.

Bloody OCD.

What does OCD have to do with Einstein?!?!

Haha! Yeah man, I noticed that too. This one is actually the first Einstein ever made, it's a prototype, but it's the same thing as all the other models.

Yeah, $4400 is fucking insane. My friend got this Einstein for $2000. I think that's a great price.

It struck me as humorous that this really expensive, sharp looking head used Comic Sans MS for the lettering. I must be a huge nerd.

Sorry dude, but for $2000, it really sounds bad, IMO. Your 5150 absolutely crushes it.

I've played em in person, too... nothing special, at all. Not even that good sounding.

I think it sounds amazing man. I don't really like my 5150 clips that much, I think the Einstein sounds a lot better recorded...and in person. As I said, it's not my amp, but I really want one.

 

[xmarcelx]

so where's the 5150 clip for comparison

Shows you that tech guys usually don't know shit about style ...

???
Can you tell me what it does ?

WTF?? I know i should know the song...but cant quite remember it.. what/ who is it?

 

[Tachy]

I like the dirty tone, but personally I think that the framus cobra smoke it.

 

[poidaobi]

As I said on HC. Your Blackmore/5150 Clips were much better.

My gawd Diezels are ripoffs... 7.5k down here....

The knobs are ugly as well IMO...
They need a good designer and they need him now.
But I'd take an ugly amp that sounds good over any fancy-schmancy crappy sounding one, so much for the aesthetics...
