Deep testing a Diezel Herbert

Testing a Diezel Herbert with a Rectifier 4x12 cabinet an a Caparison Dellinger guitar tuned to C with a BKP Aftermath at bridge. Random riffing.

I made this video because I couldn't find a good all channels and options testing video with a detuned guitar. Hope you'll like it.

Question: why EL34s instead of 6L6s?

[xykhron]

@gelliott3 Because the amp was bought loaded with them...and it sounds good!

Thanks for the great insight!

@dusted04 I'm pretty sure something was wrong in your set up, then, because he VH4 is one of the more 'organic' high end amps out there. JCM800 on crack is an apt description.

sounds really good! The low end is very unique... tight, but gargantuan! not exactly my personal cup o tea, but then again neither are rectifiers O_o

Best amp I ever had. Very versatile - the midcut make it's possible. Killer tones and brutal rough power. Play it with a 4x12" 1960 Marshall cabinet.

@dusted04 Me too. I didn't like the VH4 too much. The Pros on the Herbert is that is a killer sounding amp, very easy to dial, but in the other hand it's not as organic sounding as Mesa or VHT for example. Also, the people I know that own one, use the Mid Cut section which hiddes you the guitar on a mix. It's a very powerlfull tool, but if you abuse you can be out of the mix easily, because this amp delivers a HUGE bass response, which can be almost pissed off by a dominant bass player
