Current Amplifier Models
Blackmore
The full name of the Blackmore is the Ritchie Blackmore Signature E650. The design is based on the Engl Savage 120 with modified voicing to suit the style of former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore.
The amplifier head features 4 channels: clean, crunch, lead and heavy lead. There is a shared passive 3 band equalizer, mid contour switch, bright switch and 2 master volume controls.
There is one effects loop post preamp with a control for adjusting between serial and parallel operation.
The power amp section is a 100 watt class A/B design featuring one ECC 83 and four 5881 tubes. The preamp section features a further three ECC 83 tubes. It is, to date, the only signature model produced by ENGL.
Classic
There are 3 models in the Classic range.
Classic Head E 355 C
Classic Combo 2 x 10" E 350 C
Classic Combo 2 x 12" E 358 C
Fireball
The Fireball E 625 is a 2 channel guitar amplifier head. The design takes a no frills approach with less control options compared to similar products in the Engl range. Its lead and clean channels share a gain control and 3-band equalizer, which can make optimizing the sound of each channel at the same difficult. It is favored by some, however, for its simplicity and ease of use, while retaining the tone that ENGL is known for.
Invader
The Invader 150 E 640 is the newest product from Engl.
The design features 4 channels, each capable of producing a wide range of tones, differing from traditional designs of having dedicated clean and lead channels.
The power amp design is 150 watts produced by six EL34 tubes with a depth and presence control.
The preamp features separate gain and volume controls for each of the 4 channels, each featuring a dedicated 3 band passive eq, powered by four ECC 83 tubes.
The amp also features 2 parallel effects loops and a noise gate.
