      it's hard to find the amp with the most gain. there are plenty of amps with more than you'll ever need. of these the engl se, mesa rectifiers, and bogner uberschall come to mind.

          the diezel vh4 is pretty brutal.

          the new herbert has got even more gain than it (from what i've read of reviews)

                I'd say the XXX has got a ton of gain. The high-end Bogner line has a ton, as well.

                    IMO, most of the high-gain amps listed (except that fender twin... ) will prolly get you where you want to go... Most of those amps have more gain than you should really need, even for real heavy stuff....

                        I've never heard anything with bigger, tighter, and more toneful super high gain than
                        The Bogner Ecstasy, Uberschall, Diezel V4, Herbert, Engl Powerball and Fireball,
                        and Soldano SLO 100. There's only so much gain that can be had before it's past the point of infinite sustain, into infinite sludge. Most of these amps are at the point of infinite sustain with the gain on 7.

                          Any of the amps mentioned have more gain than you'll ever need! Period! The most aggresssive and nuttsiest of them though... Uberschall!

                            My sentiments exactly. At a point it gets rediculous!
