Diezel Einstein for classic rock?

Hey folks,

I have the opportunity to acquire an Einstein, and I'm wondering whether it will suit my playing style. I understand that it's designed as a high gain amp (at least on channel 2), but I'm wondering if it would work well for classic rock. I'm a long time tweed/plexi player, and I've had limited luck finding a channel switcher in which each channel works for me.

I'm looking for something that can do anything from Exile-era Stones to the heavier side of Zeppelin. My thinking is that I would use channel 1 in mode 2 to get some crunch and roll back on the volumes for clean tones. I'd then use channel 2 as my lead channel, hopefully without having to dial in a ton of gain to make it sound good.

How would the Einstein work for this type of implementation? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
It will work great. I use a 100W Einstein in a cover band to do similar late 60's/70's classic rock to modern stuff. The right cab and speaker combo (Marshall 4x12 w/greenack maybe?) will really help it shine for the tones you discribed.
 
It would work wonders in my opinion.
The Texas mode of the Einstein is one of the greatest crunch sounds you can get.
The lead mode can sound quite dynamic with lower gain. Especially if you use lower gain pickups as well.

You can't go wrong with the Einie for the application you want :thumbsup:
 
Thanks guys. I use very low output PAFs, so it sounds like it could be a winner.
