New ENGL product soon to be unveiled

[sakeido]

Has Blackmore ever actually used the ENGL for anything though? His last studio album not playing a lute was recorded when he might have had one in time or might not. He's done a handful of electric Rainbow live shows, but distorted guitar isn't really a primary concern in Blackmore's Night.

He was using the Savage to land that sig model in the first place but yeah not sure how much actually made it onto records after that.. especially in mega dollar productions like he would have enjoyed, who the hell knows

Edit: I could only find two pictures of Ritchie and engl amps in the same pic on Google... And the one is his live backline with no mic on the cab

It wasn't for very long but yeah, he used it for both Rainbow reunions in the 90s and the 2010s. Stranger In Us All, the following tour, and the 2010s reunion stuff was all done with Engl Sovereign 100s, the old one that had the Savage faceplate.

Soooo I guess it is true he still really likes them if he still used them after a 20 year gap lol

Or he liked the royalties. For a lot of the Rainbow stuff a lot of his tone came from the TP-1011 boost anyways

Even if he didn’t use it it definitely was a standout of their releases, even folks that don’t really like ENGLs seemed to like that one lol

 

[gunch]

Obscura is what I think of when I think typical engl sound, but I've definitely heard the savage get,...savage

And Necrophagist

On the topic of small valves, I'm pretty sure the Engl rack amp that they used was EL84 tubes.

 

[SalsaWood]

I'll only buy it if it djents.

The tone on the first album kinda blows but Epitaph sounds pretty damn killer

 

[HeHasTheJazzHands]

Oh if we need examples of killer Engl tone
