ENGL Invader 100 Head
INFO
Heyy what a beast! Newly in - briefly used ENGL Amplifier.
The basic layout of the Invader consists of an all tube driven head, that features 8 different gain stages in 4 separate channels that include four separate EQs.
Powered by 4 EL 34 Tubes the Invader delivers a total amount of 100 watts. The idea behind the Invader is that guitarists need most flexibility and control for any given playing situation. Easy to handle +¦ just focusing on pure tube tone.
The Invader achieves that with a new concept: This amp does not feature the classic 4 channel head layout of a Clean- Crunch- Rhythm- Lead channel.
The Invader is different.
Named Channel 1, 2, 3, 4, these channels are able to produce different Overdrive / Gain structures +¦ each one from Crunch to High Gain. Every Overdrive Voicing in the channels is different.
In conjunction with the Hi / Lo gain switch, which can be remote controlled and a separate EQ section for each channel, there will be no limits except the guitarist creativity.
Channel 1:
Silken Clean to Crispy Crunch
Channel 2:
Fat & Bulky Crunch to NU-Rock / Metal Rhythm / Lead
Channel 3:
Tight Warm Crunch to Classic Dynamic Rock / Metal
Channel 4:
Modern Crunch to Singing Harmonic Leads
