I own this amp and it is a pure tone machine as your demo so boldly shows. I've never played a VH4 or a Herbert but I sold my Soldano HR50 after I purchased the Diezel. Wasn't even close. The Growl that the Einstein has is just awesome!
The Einstein can get very close to that VH4 channel 3 tone, which is "the Diezel tone" everybody is after, since Tool and Metallica.
I really love it with a Tubescreamer with the classic settings (vol up, drive down) in front to boost it.
Amp Channel 1, Mode 3, Gain 2-3 o'clock, EQs at 1 o'clock, presence and deep at noon.
Try that with your SC.
it is super tight and bright, doesn't the TS make it too sharp then?
@@karolkozak64 yeah nah
Awesome sounding amp. Super versatile! The great playing helps too! \m/
Great demo! First time hearing the Einstein - Diezel seems pretty consistent when it comes to making killer amps.
Yeah they're really well put together. Low gain tones are sweet too!
You had me at that Robin Trower lick. One of my favorite albums of all time. Great demo dude!
That‘s exactelly what I was talking about in your Recto Demo: You don‘t need much tweeking and you get almost every sound you want... 😅
Remember this amp wasn´t meant to be Diezel heaviest amp at the time it was launched, for the brutalz you need to try the VH4 or the Herbie. I have the Herbert and is really verastile, beautiful clean channel (doesnt break up) that you can even play jazz with a hollow body, and channel 2 and 3 can hit you in the chest, thunderous lows if you want the heaviest chugs, its 180 watts so it can literally destroy your windows. After I got mine Rectos and Bogners never looked the same. Now with Friedman, Fortin KSR there are a lot more great options but at some point it was the baddest amp.
Totally not my bag but I gotta say, those are some amazing tones. Warm and buzzy heaven. And the way it cleans up from balls to the wall down to light blues overdrive on just the volume knob. That's crazy. Killer demo Leon!
Damn. This is one of your best sounding demos. maybe the best. Did not expect that with this amp.
Diezel's have a reputation for just being chuggachugga amps but this thing is super versatile and is voiced really well.
Diezel amps aren't 3 grand for no reason. I chose their cab over a Marshall 1960 and got it for $700. The Marshall was $900
Wow! How come you get such unbelievable tones and I can’t😂 Great Playing🤘 and I hope you are having a good day.
Gear like this basically plays itself!
Beautiful work Leon 👍 You need to experience the VH4 I purchased mine about a year ago and it still excites me every time I’m about to flick that standby switch . I would be more than happy to give you a hammer through the beast as I live in Perth also .
We need to do this!
@@LeonTodd dont do it! Vh4 will wreck all other amps for you forever...lol...kidding...wait no im not.
please make this happen
I think this amp is pretty cool. It has this sort of alien character that would be really inspiring to use, cause it doesn't immediately remind of me of something that already exists.
Nice to know that there are other Einstein owners out there besides me.
Dumped mine for vintage Marshall uncompressed openness💪🏻
I can't believe the prices these have dropped to over the last few years. I used to own one around 6-7 years ago and they were $2200+ on the used market all day. Now they're going as low as $1100 on Reverb. I never thought it was worth it at the $2k price, but for $1100, absolutely. Nothing out there in that price can even touch it!
Wow this look like a very versatile tonal base plateform! Look like you can go anywhere with the right pedals!
Rivers Cuomo (Weezer) replaced his Marshall years back with a Diezel VH4. I think now he uses Kempers and profiles his Diezel. They have so much gain without sounding very dark. I've never seen this model, this is why I love watching your videos. Find new things all the time! With a name like Einstein it must be the smarter of two models!
dude i love weezer's tone! apparently Rivers bought another mesa mark i to use on the new record. same as the one from the blue album. so that'll be interesting if you uses the mesa and diezel for his rhythm tracks.
@@wheresallthezombies Very interesting. I love their tone. I think, (not 100%positve) Brian Bell has mostly used a Marshall.
Alan K in the blue album it was all the mark I with a 6x10 Marshall cab. I think they used a fender reverb deluxe for the clean tones. Rivers used a jcm 900 shortly after on tour then at some point found the 6100 and started using that. Then got the diezel sometime after that. Now he uses the kemper with the diezel profiles and a fender Deluxe reverb profiles for the clean tones.
Alan K Idk about Brian bell but I do know all of the blue album was done on the mark i and cleans on the fender. Last I heard though, Brian was using a matchless live.
jhmcwha These guys can use any amp they want. Must be nice to be able to do that. Fenders alway give the best clean tones.
Nice playing mate... love your demos. Great work!
Thanks for doing a video on this one! I've been curious about this amp for awhile since they can be had for cheap-ish on the used market. It sounds great man!
Awesome video! Thanks for your time doing that! I have this amp quite a while and it's a keeper for sure... Tip: If you connect any pedal (even without switching it on) in the parallel fx loop then the sound becomes harsher THEN you come closer to the VH4 3rd channel :-)
Very interesting!
Thanks for the tip buddy. I’ll have to try that
Tease Me Please Me just about happens to be my favorite Scorpions -riff, or maybe even song. Fucking brilliant!
What a killer amp. Absolutely cool..
I played an Einstein for years. I kept the EQ flat, mode 2, gain at 10 o'clock. KT77s are awesome in it. Playing a 6505, now. But, 99% sure I'm going back to Diezel.
cool demo and a great amp, owned one for a little while ways back,
you can mod the amp as well so you can switch the modes per footswitch instead of having to flick the switch each time, extremely useful, i was considering doing that for a while, before moving on to something else
sounded especially nice with the single coils
This was a great in-depth overview, Leon. Thanks buddy.
“Set everything in the middle, and if it doesn’t sound good freak out” -Leon Todd.
Reminds me of Metallica "Load" era tone at the start. Wouldn't be surprised if they used some single coil guitar layers on those records for a bit of bluesy twang.
AJD OLD CHANNEL ARCHIVE they probably did! With their wall of guitars, it’s most likely in there somewhere.
Yeah wouldn't surprise me - layering humbuckers and singles is a great production technique!
James used a tele on alot of those songs....
I had an Einstein and loved it but hated that the modes weren't foot switchable. Bought a Diezel Paul and love it. Can't wait to compare it to the Axe Fx lll Diezel amps ( my Axe Fx comes in tomorrow)! Thanks for the video, Leon.
Man I was really impressed how good the strat sounded with it....to me, that is the ultimate test for an amp.
Yeah anyone who designs an amp that doesn't work with a strat is asking for trouble
Diezel is my favorite amp on the Axe FX, those low mids are my happy place. Sounds great paired with Mesa or Orange too.
Great playing Leon and awesome demo!
That is an awesome amp. About a year ago when I was amp hunting, I was really thinking about getting this amp. The price isn’t too bad with this one. I’d love to have a VH4 or Herbert but I just don’t have $4,500 laying around haha. Awesome playing as always brother
The guy who owns this is actually selling it. Tempting!
The VH pedal is pretty good. Especially ran through a good tube amp.
That sounds killer!
Great playing Leon!
Cheers mate! Ripper amp
Great demo and explanation!
Thanks for sharing brother!
Be Well Leon!
That High gain tone got me good at 10:40 nice video!
Dude that was amazing.... Your playing is better and better every time I watch one of your videos!... You would totally slay a deizel Herbert with that drop tuned prs man!.... That would be an awesome video to see bro!.. Herberts are super pricey at around 4 grand u.s.... Makes it hard for a blue collar worker to afford... Like a Friedman be 100 deluxe.... Amawzing amp as well I'd like to see you play!
Hi Leon - as you said at the end of the video - Diezal amps are not only Heavy sounding - there are very useable amps for almost every kind of music - with a very musical, true tone. A Diezel Paul would sound great in your hands.( I´ve played the blue VH 4 stereo for years).
Agreed.....big fan of the Paul....vintage voiced with this extra gain available.
That Texas mode sounds bloody fantastic.
Probably my favourite tone from the amp. Felt great too!
Sounds awesome.
Very cool. Just shot the 50 watt version on ebay for 1000 bucks. Hope it is ok when it arrives on Friday :)
I’m saving up for the burny sustainer 85 in white with floyed rose it looks amazing
You should try a strat with Zexcoil pickups! They are the most significant change to strat pick ups ever. Not that there is anything wrong with the one your playing.
Great demo as always. Curious when you demo these amps how the Axe FX III compares into the same cab with a matrix power amp.
I am an owner of an Diezel Herbert and Einstein, Love these Amps but altough I Love my Mesa Roadking1 and my Fender Twin Reverb, too. Next and Last Amp i Need is an Soldano. Great Job and thanks for showing an Amp of my Country
Really want to try a Herbert. If you like the Einstein you'll love Soldano!
I Had years ago an Soldano SL60 Series 2, i Sold him. That was stupid. Play the Herbert compared with an Sound City 4X12. Sounds awesome
Wow great demo not too much chat!
If you owned this.....had to take an amp to a gig.....would you grab this Diezel or the Soldano ?
I actually played a Diezel Paul that I REALLY liked.....almost bought it....dang AX8 has me spoiled though....slightly more vintage voiced, but had that crazy Diezel distortion at its peak....
Hi Leon love your tone videos with
the axefx and the many vaive amps since 1980 I have been lucky enough to have owned many great Marshalls Mesas H&K and Black star amps due to illness I now own a Black star idtvp 15 combo its a great platform to recreate many amazing high gain tones and effects have you ever seen one
Very impressed !
I have a modified version of this that I am not sure what was the mod exactly. It was 100W vs. the common 50W and tubes die very fast in that amp even after I rebiased them. But it sounds killer. What a pity they don't make new ones.
Wow been watching ur vids for a while and only just discovered ur in aus too hahaha
Should I trade my single rec for the Einstein? I am not in love with the fizzyness of the recto.
I'm wondering... what pickups are on this Paul Reed Smith? Stock ones? Can you give me some details so I can hope to find them online? Damn I like what you do with that!
That's amazing!
Reminds me of the Friedman Naked, Wish there were more of those around so u could try one lol
I've played and sold VHT Pittbull, Laney Klipp, Diezel VH4, Peavey 5150 II, Jcm 800 2210 but i will NEVER sell my Diezel Einstein.. My main amp since 2005.
I bought an Amplifire 12 because I loved your tones, and mine sounds like absolute garbage. How the hell do you make everything sound great?
I moved from a 5150 to the Einstein a few tears ago because it’s versatility and of course for the metal sounds. As you said, it’s a great mix between a Recto and a Marshall, best of both worlds and in between. I have played in big clubs my 50w one with an oversized recto 4x12 and can’t imagine ever needing more volume. Don’t know why anybody would need the 100w versión.
Btw here is an amazing metal tone out of a Diezel Einstein for these thinking it’s not metal enough: ua-cam.com/video/Zis1wX0Bocw/v-deo.html
100 watts is not exponentially twice as loud as 50 watts. it is in decibels about a third louder. cleaner headroom is usually the reason for 100 watts....or high headroom. though tube calssification will also alter headroom vs. break up.
Have you heard Headfirst Amplification? I know he is a member of the Ceriatone FB but he is doing some pretty cool stuff on your side of the world.
I've seen a few pics in the Ceriatone group but not tried one. They look tasty
@@LeonTodd check his UA-cam channel out. He just posted a Friedman inspired mini. It had a clean, plexi, BE, and JBE with 6V6's I think
Very cool - I wonder how this physical amp would compare to the AXFIII's modeler if there is one.
The Axe-Fx has the VH4 and Herbert. Might be worth tone matching!
Do you think their better than a mesa dual rec Leon?.....i have a chance to get a Dmoll real cheap but ill have to trade mt dual rec to get it......the dmoll has that mid cut section that the Herbert has.....omg dude!...but im on the fence about the trade....
Killer amp just big $$
How much is a used Einstein sell for ?
Very nice! Question - if you could own only one physical amp (e.g. not a modeler) that’s currently in production, which amp would it be? I have an Axe III which I love but I’d also like to add a tube amp for some different kind of fun.
Probably a Mesa Mark series at this stage
Leon Todd Mesa Mark IV Rev A for the win! Spent all summer working just to buy one on Reverb 2 years back - got it, set it up in a gig room on a weekend, cranked it, and ripped through it! 30 year old amp and still an undisputed champion.
All this aside leon could you pleas pull out the boss od 200 and explain the peramiters and stuff and th pre and post im not dialing in alot its sucks i paid alot for tat pedal after seeing your demo thanks in advance tim
Hello Leon, wich cabinet, mic and preamp do you use in this sound ?? Also, do you use some filter or plugin (EQ, Filter,
cut
) ??
To me, that kind of an amp sounds better with humbuckers.
mesa mk IV, Einstein, dsl50. you have great friends! haha
I have above average friends!
I bought a Mooer gas station pedal preamp that's modeled after a Diezel Hagen. The gain sound is a great replication through a few effects into a valve power amp but the clean is junk.
Billy Corgan run VH4s on the machines of God tour in addition to a literal wall of rack equipment. You can hear it best on the song The Everlasting Gaze.
I prefer the mesa boogies Mark 4 and 5. Tony Iommi had the Coliseum 300s on the Live Evil tour, the live album is brutal.
What happened to your mark iv vs triaxis video?
I really want one of these now
edit: Is that some Ozzy I hear at 14:40?
No more tears
Thank you!! I was scrolling through the comments hoping someone would mention the song. It was driving me mad trying to place it.
What happened was just watching the Boogie vs TriAxis and now it's gone?? 😥😥
I'm a dumbass and scheduled both vids for the same day. Boogie shootout will be back up next Monday
@@LeonTodd ooookey dooookey. You do know that because you've had so many views on the first Boogie MK IV video everyone who has one for sale on Reverb was able to increase the selling price by at least $100 bucks...lol. Happens every time someone does a video on a guitar or amp. 🤣🤣
@@dickdastardly2560 Hahaha I did myself no favours then!
@@LeonTodd I'm not saying that will happen but I have noticed that almost every time someone does a review on a guitar or amp and they say they paid XXX amount for it when I go to check the price it's more than what they said.
Any problems dialling in the high end Leon?
so 50w Einstein or the Dmoll? which one u think guys i found a used Dmoll in amazing condtion and for a good price not sure if it has the footswitch though i got to play it for a sort time but what i played was bad to the bone.
I have a 5150 III 50W 1x12 combo was looking to upgrade to a 5150 III 50w stealth head 2x12 cab but now after playing the Dmoll.
i want a Diezel super bad people say the Dmoll is a Hifiamp why they say that?
I’ve recently read that many think the D-Moll is an updated Einstein.....or, w/more options.....
does it chug! lol
Someone get Ola on this thing!
@@LeonTodd Ola Made a video about the Einstein years ago when his channel's name was still 'feardse' - ua-cam.com/video/Zis1wX0Bocw/v-deo.html :-)
Nice Video! You point out the versatility of this amp very well. I use an Einstein since 2011 as my main amp. I bought it from this guy at Session Music in Frankfurt: ua-cam.com/video/OL_2SsI8_qw/v-deo.html :-D
I tried the VH4, the Herbert and the Hagen also but the Einstein sounded the best imo. You'll get a very nice overdrive sound with a Les Paul on Channel 1 Mode 2 when you boost it with an OCD. You can also mod channel 1 so you can switch modes with a footswitch - www.tubelit.de/einsteinroadie.html - Cheers from Germany!
yeah, I guess the Rectifier is still my favorite. In my mind is way heavier with tons more bottom growl than a Diezel. I also think I prefer even a high gain Marshall over a Diezel.
My buddy prefers his 5150 over his tri rec for metal
Try a VH4.
Tech N9ne!!!! oh wait wrong Einstein :)
Is this less gainy than the Herbert and vh4?
It has around as much gain as the second channel of a Herbie with the "+" engaged or channel 3 on a VH4. Channel 4 on the VH4 and channel 3 on the Herbert have more overall gain.
Like the Hagen more
Spend 3k to nail the Proco RAT sound.
I was a little preturbed to say the least you were blamed for fake guitar playing leon.im getting to to the point im not enjoying channels some of my favorites are havjng you tube problems false alleg. On others its becom8ng a drama cetre in the communityits upsetting myfriend ugh.
I spend so much money, after watching all the guitar gear vids, You, Michael Nielson, Baker, Et Al, She wishes I would watch porn instead! :)
"Why not both?" :p
@@LeonTodd Who can argue with that! Umm! Can I crash for a couple days? :)
More mids lol
