... really cool! I always thought of this as a metal amp, and I usually gravitate towards the more smooth and classic amps. But this Engl model is just really intriguing to me. It can get really hairy sounding, but the true sound of the guitar still comes through, only with great cut and balls. A couple interesting things about this amp: I prefer just the amp distortion without any drive pedal in front, and it is very responsive to the drive parameter in the amp - for instance, backing off on the drive sounds a lot different than reducing the gain going into the amp, and you cannot simulate increased drive by boosting the signal going in.
This amp really gets close to some of the tones Jeff Kollman gets. He uses strats and a LP P90 through a Bogner the times I've seen him, although I believe he is endorsing Krank now.
