Its done now... GK100's mixed with Hempcones in my new diezel RL 4x12. 
Sounds pretty bangin. I only got to play it for a little while on my Einstein, but its intended to be for playing on the road with my herbert. So while i want to report awesome stuff, i cant till the 23rd (our next big show).
HOWEVER..i did compare it to my Bogner 1X12 with cl-80s that i love.
I can say that overall there are things i love about it which include ARTICULATION, No apparent Spike, and great Dynamics! Andy Timmons would be proud
Things i did not seem to like that much (but not really bad) were the fact that the cab is a little bright for my liking. I really like dark warm cabs. But i can also say that because i love that warm compressed feel. This cab still seems to retain that feel but yet making it a little on the bright side.
OVERALL, when comparing this to my Bogner, this cab wins out for overall better tone.
The GK's seem to overpower the Hemps for whatever reason. Even before, the hemps seemed to be a speaker that easily seems to get buried in the mix. They also colour your sound. Very Greenback'ish.. AMAZING rythym tone though..!
For the Eric Johnsony tone i like the GK's and actually my OLD diezel RL with the Custom Eminence speakers. This is why i thought this combo would be great together. I like my Rythym stuff grainy and my lead stuff smooooooth and clear.
I have faith that this will be a great combination and hope to report back with even more results.
So far i recommend it highly for players who want several sound combinations and who like to play multiple styles. Try it and let me know your thoughts about it as well. Im really curious as to what others may think about it also.
Cheers
