Description
THE AMPI am offering my ~15 year old Diezel Einstein Combo guitar tube amp for sale, as I now mostly play Classical guitar. This kind of amp is a true collectors piece as it's no longer regularely produced and only a handful of them appear on various platforms every couple of months. You can still get support by the company Diezel though if you ask. The amps value will also increase over time, as it has enjoyed quite the reputation throughout it's career and is built with sturdy German engineering.
This powerhouse comes with a whopping 230V/100W and will be enough for your bands concert performance without an additional box. The amp is still in pristine condition, I will carefully undust and clean it, if I find an interested buyer who promises to take good care of this beauty for me...
Has been in use for under 200 hours over the years, as I broke my arm snowboarding about a year after acquiring it and had to recover my wrist for almost 5 years and slowly get back into it.. Tubes have always been used after proper warm-up time of 30 minutes in a well-temperatured room, as instructed by the guitar center when I was a teenager.
It works flawlessly and you should hear the sound... It fills the room, it's a joy to play for everyone around you, even if you hit the occasional wrong note.
THE SOUND
The cleans are warm, vibrating, crystal-clear. Anything without distortion will sound GREAT on this amp. Metallica will legit envy you for this ballad sound. But still, it's so versatile, you turn up the gain or put it on it's mid-heavy Channel 2 and Johnny Winter will want to do a legendary blues improv with you. I honestly think this amp is great for metal, but it's true strength definitely is the clean and blues sounds respectively. From all the amps I got to hear over the years, this one produces a quality untouched. Every guitar player who heard this amp was amazed and wanted to play on it for a little longer and I've done hour-long blues improvs, just having a great time with this gem of a guitar amp.
Now for the metal sound on Channel 3, I personally use a tube screamer by Ibanez to further enhance the amps slapping metal sound. If I would have to name a band that could make perfect use of this amp, it would be Animals as Leaders, or Killswitch Engage. The sound is quite pure without any FX consoles - but seriously, if you use this amp, you're gonna have an impressive FX board already, don't you? :D It's ideal to be shaped into the modern metal sound of your dreams, although honestly, for modern extreme metal there's better options.
If you want to have a real good time with your guitar, maybe even perform live, or you're a collector of rare amps, but even if you're a beginner ready to invest directly into an amp with actual quality, this amp will do the job for you and you will fall in love with it 100%.
