nothing compares to a Diezel Herbert that is dialed in correctly with the right tube combination when playing modern-tight-high-gain... don't let these low-quality vids discourage... play this beast in person... best metal amp in the world...
@paraglidermx YouTube does no favours for the sound of this amp. I think your opinion would change if you actually hear a Diezel Herbert in person. It is a BEAST! I've had the pleasure of owning my Diezel for nearly 3 years now and i've not heard many amps that come close.
@FastRedPonyCar What comment are u talking about?The tube vypyr one??Im not joking bro they kick ass for 450 buck!!!Goto my channel and check out my poor mans deizel haha!!!
@dsl100stack I kno brother...the technogy of the tube vypyr is amazing plus it has two Sovteks in the power and a JJ in the pre...it sounds better than the 6505 to me.
@dsl100stack Yeah I think the tube vypyr 6505 model sounds bettr.than the original. Goto my channel and check out some of the tones w/crappy flip cam and still sounds great!! This diezel does sound cool.
@paraglidermx your a fucking noob dude.....I have a Herbert and the thing kills man...the problem with guys like you is you have never owned a Diezel or probably any good amp for that matter... then you come on youtube and judge an amps sound quality by a compressed youtube video?...which shows me how ignorant and naive you are not only as a musician but as a human wow.
hahaha... you are such a retard. Youtube vids are LO-Fi. So you can't judge an amp based youtube. I own a VH4 and it destroys Mesa, Marshall, and Fender.
VH4 cleans are amazing. But you need to run it with 6L6 and have the bias set at 75% wattage of the tube. At that bias setting, the high gain sounds too warm and fuzzy. So you either have to bias it for optimal cleans or optimal high-gain. I'm a "metal" guy, so I go with the 60% bias on 6L6s. Amazing tone.
You are correct! I run for perfect cleans on my Diezel Herbert. I'm more of a classic 80's guy, so there's lots of "juice" left for some awesome 80's tones in my amp even though I have the bias set for optimal cleans.
You are probably one of those that base your desicion on what amp to buy, on youtube clips. That speaks for itself. You are an ignorant person that doesn't understand that a youtube clip don't justify the sound of ANY guitar amp.
But then again, u could probably not afford even TRYING a diezel.
omgosh you are an idiot... I own the Herbert. When you hear this thing in front of you and it is dialed in with the right tube combination, there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that compares... NOTHING... These vids do not do this amp any justice... omg... the most amazing amplifier I have EVER heard for tight-modern-high-gain... and the cleans are great also...
I'm choosing between this amp and possibly and ENGL Invader. Unfortunately, there aren't dealers around where I live to try them out in person, so I have to rely on youtube and other sound clips on other web sites. Now, the Herbert retails for about $1300 more than the ENGL Invader. Both amps sound pretty good to me. Is the Herbert really worth that much more than the ENGL Invader as far as sound? What does it have more than the Engl? Or are they both good for the money? Decisions, Decisions.
@alanjason I owned both... they're totally different sounding amps. The Diezel sounds more processed and a bit more thumpy. The ENGL is more open sounding and raw... both are pretty compressed when you're gained out. ENGL may be a bit more dynamic. I liked both.. but really it just depends on what kind of sound you're after. Worth is a tough call. Both are awesome.. but they're not even clsoe to the similar.
this amp is fucking amazing. the guy has the settings a little wierd. but its a fuckign diezel. listen to these bad boys on the diezel site. and you cant judge an amp till you hear it in person. and its worth 4gs. cause its the best shit around. and in person you would really know.
Dude, why do you gotta be such a hater?!! I bet the guy on this video can outplay you ANY DAY. Just because you're playing on your Gorilla amp and PRAYING for that day the music shop will take food stamps so you can get a Behringer V amp doesn't mean you gotta be all jealous of a guy that is serious about guitar and forked out some serious cash for what he cares about. He did a great job on his BFMV video and his tone kicks ass. Now, go pick up your Squire and go back to dreaming. HATER.
@Sandvigmusic I'll bet my ass he didn't buy this shit by him self (gibson+diezel+tc) and do you consider being a rich daddy's son MUSICAL SERIOUSNESS??? Of course the tone's great. Did you ever hear a Ferrari sound like a piece of crap old car?
this is true, but still. i'd apprecia-scratch that, we'd ALL appreciate it if it was at least about 1300 i mean 4 grand, might as well sell my room just too pay this beast off......i love it though(: i hear buckethead's heavy sound somewhere in there(:
Herbert doesn´t sound anything like a solid state. Actually it sounds quite organic and you can get just about any sound out of it. It has 180 watts but it sounds very good even at low volumes. Maybe you should remember that this is Youtube and the sound changes "quite" a lot from room to your speakers. Also different players, guitars, pickups and so on change the sound. What I´m saying is that you have to try it yourself before making statements like that.
Volume and watts have almost nothing to do with each other. Watts give you headromm, not really volume. You'll need 1000 watts to be twice as loud as 100 watts. Think about it.
The wattage does determine the volume of the amp but it is also true to say that past a certain point it makes no difference. Amps like this one have such a high wattage for headroom purposes so the clean channel stays as clean as possible all the time and the gain channel(s) stays as tight as possible.
@vontetzianos Some 100 watt amps are louder than others. Watts are how much electricity is being used, the more electricity or current, the louder it gets, if the amp is high enough quality to handle the extra current or power. Tube amps are usually considered louder than electronic amps, at least at the same wattage.
Hi made, very good demo. Can I make you a question? do you think you can get that very warm and sweet tone that the Diezel einstein have from the herbert? or it is too much of a metal amp to go that sweet...
The Herbert is a very versatile amp. It does do warm and sweet, but not as good as the Einstein in my opinion. I find the Herbert a lot more "Throaty"...
Watch this space tho. I'm gonna do another vid to try and demonstrate more of the tones you can get from this thing.
Not really mate...the only bit I had trouble with was stopping it changing the tonality of my signal. After turning the Kill Dry off, setting the right Input/Output levels it sits silently in the signal. I'm currently running it through the Serial Loop as i'm using the Noise Gate
What's on top of the Herbert, and with a 4000 dollar amp why would you need it?
