Re: Lusting after Diezel VH-4

Do yourself a favor TO. Sell all the other stuff and you'll be very close to the price they usually sell for (which is around 3 grand). That type of versatility, power and reliability is what every serious guitarist needs.

I disagree. The Rivera is much more versatile. Plus, with my Lynch guitars, I would end up with the same rig that Lynch used back in '95; and to me, maple + Diezel don't sound so good together.

The clean channel is just how I like it, actually ... which is borderline clinical.

most of the OOS album was done with a ZVex Fuzz factory i think... lovely pedal.

it wasnt just the tone that made OOS wicked though, listen to citizen erased and try and work out whats going on chordwise

Origin is their best album IMO. Closely follwed by Showbiz, then Absolution. Hullaballoo, had a pretty weak first CD.

Muse rock :headbang:

I can't believe you just said that :saeek:
But I think I know what you mean, as the Rivera might just hit your sweet spot in tone, while I prefer the Diezel. A weird fact here in Europe is that the resale value of the VH-4 is lower than that of the Herbert, while I do think the Herbert sounds a tincy bit better and less sterile, I believe the VH-4 is a little more expensive. I'd love to own one as well, but I'll have to get rid of my Boogie and graduate first :laugh2:
