## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work on a Bass?**
A: I don't see why not.

**Q: Does it work with 240V in Australia?**
A: Yes and it comes with all the different plug adapter you will need for any country.

**Q: Would this pedal still have the Diezel VH4 3rd channel sound if it was ran through a solid state amp?**
A: It will, but solid state will never have quite the same punch as tubed amps in similar wattage in my opinion. 100w in a tube amp vs 100w solid state is very different. But if solid state is what you have you will get a good sound with this pedal...Diesel is bad ass!!!

**Q: Is it possible to change the tube to different types of tubes? Thanks!**
A: It's solid state no tubes

    Working class's Diezel amp / Adam Jones tone enthusiast's best friend
  

*by Z***Z on Reviewed in the United States on March 31, 2018*

I would absolutely love to have a VH4 amp of my very own, but the price tag is hard to stomach for someone of my economic status. This pedal (amp's third channel only) is a wonderful compromise. I am a huge Adam Jones fan and have been trying to achieve a signal similar to his Crystal-clear overdrive/distortion tone for a long time (without breaking the bank). I have had issues with the low E string (tuned to drop D, of course) sounding super muddy when overdrive is engaged. Yes, I tried EQ pedal(backing off the lows made the signal sound super thin), yes, I have studied my guitar/ pickups/ Amp model's individual tonal characteristics, and yes, I am aware of how picking dynamics play a role in overall clarity.Taking all of those factors into account, the VH4-2 pedal has giving me what I have been missing (...A VH4's third channel... lol).  Whether played in front of or behind your tube amp, this pedal will give you that "clear" high mids distortion signal without cutting out too much of the low end-- keeping the signal feeling full (Of course other big name artists use the VH4 so this pedal can definitely assist you in replicating their tones as well).  Both channels of the pedal are very responsive to your picking dynamics and the tone/ level pots give you a very wide range of saturation/ frequency combinations.  Also, she's a big one and will need more pedal board space than many other pedals out there. In any case, if you are like me: on a budget and like to play within that zone where rock isn't hard enough and heavy metal is just too much, this pedal is for you!!! Enjoy!

    Stop using this pedal through a bad amplifier!
  

*by H***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2022*

The 15 minutes I got to play through this before the first master volume stopped working it was absolutely amazing unfortunately I have to return it lol. There are a lot of people on here saying it doesn’t sound good in all of this and that I’m willing to bet they’re not playing through the best gear. This pedal will not make your $500 set up sound like a $5000 set up. You have to use a decent amp and speaker set up. My current situation is a Marshall DSL 20 watt head and 2 x12 slanted cab with 150 W Celestion red back and a Celestion vintage 70 W. It definitely will turn a decent tube amp in to a hi gain monster. and everyone wanting to sound like the guy from tool using this needs to remember he has a lot of money and a lot of studio equipment to work with to get his sound lol this is not gonna make you sound like him. All in all this is essentially an amp the box with the right amp attached if you know what I mean.

    Diezel Could Have Done Better
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2022*

I bought the pedal to use as a pre-amp in the return fx on my engl savage 120 mark II head. I should have listened to other reviews that said when you mute the pedal, it kills the entire chain making your main amp head channels useless. I tried to use the pedal in front of the amp but didn't care for it there either. Now, when using this pedal as a pre-amp, you cannot deny the low-end that this thing produces. I loved the low end but no matter what other settings I used, the pedal sounded like it had a blanket over it. I added an Mesa Boogie 5 band eq pedal after the VH4-2 pedal on I was able to make it sound very good at that point. Unfortunately, for the price, I returned this pedal because if it is used as a pre-amp, it makes all other channels on your amp useless, and the blanketed sound.
