this does sound good!
almost as good as a krank...........

nah but seriously it sounds damn fine. how do the Diezel's compare to something like Bogners? not that ive played either, but im tempted to play an Uberschall if i can find one. Diezels always look a complex for me.

Sounds nice but the overdrive sounds a bit "hifi" if that means anything to anyone :lol:

I know what you mean, that is Diezel ... it disturbed me on my Einstein, but the Schmidt reminds me a lot of a :13 on the crunch tones and has a nice grittiness on the highgain which the Eini didn't have.

Sounds pretty good to me :) but I'd be more interested in a Herbert.

  Yes,i remember your Einstein clips  and ,indeed, i found the overdrive to be too much "processed" or "hifi"sounding (it was compared to the mighty Shiva,though ! 8)) but the Schmidt seems different.We'll see...

listened to it all now, i think it maybe had a bit too much gain on the crunch channel? hard to tell when someone is dialling it in, but i prefer my crunch channel to start off more or less clean, then get heavier from there. i love having a ton of gain available for when i need it, but not if that's the only tone available.

Hunter - what amp are you using on the Scorpions Big City Nights video?

Dude, it's got 3 Channels. There are other vids which show the amazing cleans too. :O)

Yeah not cheap.

Not everyones amp of course, no amp ever is!

It's a Diezel, it's hardly going to suck :lol: I've played a Herbert next to a VH4 but I'd love to do it again with a Schmidt too.

yeah, i mean i liked it a lot, but just not enough to buy one. One of those amps where if I had unlimited funds, or had a job in music so I could justify it or claim back VAT etc., I'd definitely get one, but not at the moment. :)

Sounds great and it's not a brand I would normally consider  :P

Is it just me or is there FAR too much bass?
Title: Re: Holy hell that Schmidt sounds nice!
Post by: AdamB on June 07, 2009, 04:54:19 PM
Sounds lovely!

But all Diezels do their 'thing' very very well!!

If i didn't have my Egnater, i'd be all over a VH4 :D
