Diezel Releases the VH-Micro Head

Diezel Releases the VH-Micro Head

The legendary VH4 amplifier was created in 1994 and sparked a revolution in tone. Peter Diezel's powerhouse design generated such demand, that he had no choice but to put his creation into production. Tool's Adam Jones, Metallica's James Hetfield and hundreds of touring pros have cemented the roar and pummeling voice of the VH4 into high-gain history.


The VH Micro amp captures the signature tone and look of its legendary ancestor in an ultra-compact and lightweight design. But don't let the amp's tiny size fool you. Inside the VH Micro are 30 watts of searing rock and metal tones with plenty of power for home, studio, rehearsal, and live applications. The VH Micro amp delivers all the lush, dynamic overdrive character of the VH4 Channel 3 with a familiar front panel controls layout including Diezel's lauded Deep and Presence knobs.

On the back panel you'll find a high-quality effects loop ideal for using time-based effects with your high-gain tones. The included 24V universal-voltage power-supply means you can take your VH Micro wherever you travel.

In the impetuousness of my youth, I was, among other things, a reactionary chorus hater. Such were the obligations of a lad that preferred the Pebblescompilations to the Police in the 1980s. So, upon my regular visits to the old Starving Musician on El Camino Real in Santa Clara, I would often peer at a cheap, used Boss CE-1 and think, ā€œDamn ... looks cool. Wish it wasnā€™t a chorus.ā€
