Write me down for an order as well! A more german inspired modern high gain, something similar in gain but different in style to the EG5. The Ying to the EG5's Yang.

What about the MHG? 
I wouldn't expect to nail that tone because he uses so many amps from Mesa, to Marshall to Rivera to Diezel. I just think it would be cool having a beefy German inspired high gain module. Maybe a modified EG5 would do it. The MHG is an idea but I can get my SL2 very close to the MHG with the bass boost and gain up on channel B.

Yeah, that would be pretty cool man...
Don't shoot me, but I was listening to some Metallica Death Magnetic yesterday. If that's what a Diezel sounds like... that's a pretty damn good tone.
Perhaps this new German metal module could be called:
- Luger
- Shnitzel
- Wurst
- DZ

the death magnetic tone's not bad, and probably sounded a LOT better before being compressed to hell.
as for adam jones, he uses the diezel vh4, but he mixes it with lots of other high gain amps (marshall, mesa typically). from what i've read, for both studio/live he runs through a very simple pedalboard to three dirty amps. he doesn't need a lot of cleans so he just rolls down the guitar volume when he does. very powerful tone, but for most of us a triple amp blend is pretty impractical.

I like it too but when I used it with the band, it didn't stand out as much or sound as full as my other modules....plus much more stiff and not as fun for soloing.

i think theres alot of overlap with a bass player.. depending on the style of music, it works well, because you can get a really tight punchy sound. I find myself running the low's around 2 o'clock when i'm jamming by myself, and around 10 o'clock when i'm playing with my band..
