The Diezel Huebert

last year i recieved $6800 basically for free and i almost bought one without hearing it because i was just so sure it had to be great. well i didnt. but i seriously was on the verge of ordering one. im glad i didnt even though i still never have heard one.
 
I played Neal Schon's personal Herbert once, but it was the Mark I unit (Peter's revised the circuits a couple times since it first came out). I was a little disapointed in it, but I could see potential; I'm sure the Mark II version is the shiznit.
 
I heard a really new Diezel Herbert and it was awesome, not so expensive in Germany, Mesa Triple Recto is about 2,700 Euros, the Diezel, too.
But the Bogner Überschall sounds better to me, but in this price range it's all about your own taste, and you have to test things cause tastes are different.
 
The Diezel distro guy for the UK played my venue last year and his personal Herbert was amazing, although it was fitted with KT88 tubes so the sound was very different from a stock Herbert (Also it was 340 watts!!!).
 
Well the features on the amp are amazing...

You can bias the tubes PER PAIR... so you really dont have to worry about finding a fullset and you can mix and match which is awsome. The MIDI control is an AWSOME feature, and the low end resonance (deep) control really ads ALOT of versatility to the amp.

I WISH i could afford one, but i was thinking about possibly borrwing a friends and using it for my tracks.

It's a guy who works with him (Plays under the name JroK, haven't got his business card with me to find out his real name). I was seriously floored when he pulled two guitars out of one normal sized gigbag!! The tone those guitars have whilst having such a thin body is unbelievable, and that headstock is just awesome!!
 
Herbert=3 Channels, a bit more british sounding, 180 watts
VH4=4 Channels, the sound is not that british, more the "diezel" sound itself but less watts
