Any news about this amp?​

I am saving to buy a small amp next to my VH4s - This should result in portability without suffering tone. At the moment for each session/gig I am using my Vh4s and big 2x12" Bogner. Nothing to complain, however a smaller amp may do the same trick with less pain in the back. When will this amp be available, any spec's yet? :thumbsup:

The Schmidt will sound much different as the VH4
 
out of curisoty, will it be more of a vintage class a sound like an old vox or more of a modern class a like a dr. z or matchless?

Hello Peter,
Thanks for your reaction; so this will be actually an extension of the sonic palette :lol: :LOL: I have already with the Vh4s? Sounds interesting - especially as I am more and more into the bluesy/rock thing instead of metal.
(I now almost exclusively use channel 2 an 3 of the Vh4s) - I will certainly check it out!
regards André R.
 
It´s hard to describe the Schmidt. I think it
has much low end for an class Amp but don´t
sounds muddy when You crank it up.

The "normal" channel starts with shimmering
clean and ends with a tight, midrangy crunch.
The 30 watts are more than enough. If You want
to get distortin at lower volume, You have to
switch to the "crunch" channel. There is a
master volume. To get more mids and distortion
we have a boost switch on this channel.

The Schmidt is not a high gain amp ! But I also
figured out that it loves distortion pedals.

Best would be to get more opinions from other
users when the Schmidt is released.

I hope, I will have the last prototype for the
Tokyo show at the begining of November.
Just waiting for components.
Maybe we can start production early next
year.
 
So basically it is a small(er) two channel amp 30 watts.
Will I be able to hook it up on my 2x12" stereo cab? Anyway, I will surely check later on -
as I still rely on my VHs4 - I really only have a "luxury" problem when having two Diezels in the end :lol: :LOL:
Maybe first tell the wife...
regards André -
 

Schmidt When will it be released?​

Apart from my trusty VH4s I need a smal amp/combo or head for those moments when a small set up is enough.
I tried the Suhr Badger combo which certainly will do the trick - however having 2 Diezels instead of one may even be a better idea :rock: ... So please pass on any news! Come on, Schmidt was announced already 2 years ago!

+1, the website hinted at another multi-channel high gain amp. What ground could the new amp possibly cover? Treble Cut feature? 300 watts? Espresso machine? WE NEED INFO :rock: :gethim:
 
Just have a bit patience with Hagen. I don´t want to
promise anything before it´s released. Maybe we have
a prototyp at the Frankfurt fair, but it needs also a
simple footswitch to design.

:D
 
I heard some info on the Hagen today.

Its supposed to be based on the VH4 but with the Herbert channel 3 in the 4th channel, or something of that ilk. It should be just slightly changed/updated VH4.

Should be cool! I think im gunna stick with a Herbie though!
 
is it better to wait this new amp or i can go at full target buying an herbert now?
i prefere the herbert sound compared to the vh4.
