I'm kind of at the point where I've mostly built all circuits I set out to build when I initially started. So, now I'm building what I consider "classics".
In my opinion, The Diezel VH4 amp is one of those. I've never played one but I've heard plenty. One of the first pedal mods I've ever tried was the Diezel mod for the Boss Metal Zone. Turned out crappy but I tried.
Any way this thing sounds great. Does it hold up to some of the more modern distortion boxes? Not really. But I still love it. It's a tad dark with humbuckers and a bit noisy but it still crushes.
Like most pedals with a dedicated power amp out, it sounds better going directly into the amp return. That alone is worth the price of admission. I haven't tried it at 18V yet either.
I ripped off the graphics of the original just because I like them a lot. Water slide decal.
I recommend this one if you are looking for that amp-in-a-box, classic-type distortion.
