New Vader/Diezel pics and thoughts

[Larrikin666]

My Diezel Herbert finally arrived today, and my Vader 2x12 came about 10 days ago. I got the tubes installed and biased. This monster is incredibly heavy. I'm a pretty small dude, so I'm not looking forward to carrying this up and down steps for gigs.

Both pieces of gear are built very well. I have two Vader 4x12s, so I knew I'd be getting a quality cab. The speakers definitely are not broken in yet though. That makes it very hard to get a feel for the cab and the head at this point.

It's kind of a pain to have the older model that requires you to pull the chassis out for biasing (not a huge deal though). I feel kind of spoiled with all the unnecessary features of my ENGL SE. It's going to take me a bit to get used to how the Herbert differs fundmentally. I'm going to reserve my opinions until I spend the proper time with the rig.

This is just my practice stuff for at home right now. I'm going to take some pictures of my other Vader/ENGL/Laboga stuff at practice on Sunday and post pictures for everyone that's been asking.

Congrats, although the Herbert would appreciate it if that Krankenstein was placed elsewhere, preferably in a furnace of your choosing

The newly revised Herberts I've been getting in my shop sound so fucking amazing, if there was one amp that I could ever see myself playing thats not a Pittbull, it would be that. It sounds obscene through the new Diezel cabs but I hear nothing but good stuff about Vader too

Congrats !!! awesome gear, no doubts

Yeah. I haven't played the Krankenstein in about 3 years. I despise how it sounds. I've held onto it for a bit because Sara from The Breathing Process rents it from time to time for recording and touring.

Little tip for ya: try putting a JJ ECC83 Gold Pin in V1.

Nice dude. But seriously, having those two heads in the same room can't be good for the Kranks self esteem.

Diezel and vader=god. That krank must be a very sad guy though. Sell it to some pantera fanboy for double the price?

Lol I hoped you would sense the sarcasm in my post

The Krank definitely knows its place. It sat above two ENGLS for awhile as well. I'm sure its self-esteem is long gone by now.

congrats man, one of the best amps ever. (and i'm not talking about the Krank )

Holy F I totally didn't see the pic, I thought it was to something serious, lol.

Damn. It must need some serious counseling now...

If that Krank needs a good home, my brother needs an amp - Christmas is right around the corner

I'd like a job that allowed me an ENGL halfstack and a Diezel halfstack. And a place to use them, of course!

Great setup there dude I'm even jealous of the Krank I really like some of the tones you can get out of em, though obviously nothing compared to the Herbert
