Hey there fellas! So i have been in quite a dilemma lately. I currently own an ENGL Special Edition with the 6L6 tubes, and although it is a great amp with tons of useful features, i am finding that this amp is too much for me and that i am getting bored of its tone. I normally play death metal and find that this amp has a tone that is a bit too smooth, and although it can get uber aggressive, i find that the voicing is not what i am really after. I have tried the numerous settings and modes on the amp but am thinking that i would be better off with a darker and more gritty sounding amp. I often like to boost my amps with a maxon 808 due to the feel that it gives, as well as to tighten up the bass and boost the mids abit. However, i find that the Special Edition does not take boosts too well.
With this being said, i am considering selling the Special Edition due to financial situations and picking up a Fireball 100 instead. For those of you who have tried both amps, do you think the Fireball 100 would be a better option to try out? I rarely use all channels and features and am trying to go for the modern death metal tone such as those from bands like Thy Art Is Murder, Rivers of Nihil, Ingested, etc.
Please let me know what you think!
