I have heard both good and 'bad' when it comes to Engl.I have never heard an ENGL that is right for me. A lot of bands that I've seen that use ENGL amps sound like mush.
There's a difference between old Savage, Blackmore, Steve Morse sig, Artist Edition, Inferno and Retro on one side, and Powerball, Fireball, Smolski sig on the other side, roughly speaking.
The first group has more rawness going on. The 2nd group, to me, sounds more artificial, sterile even.
My Invader & Ironball sits in between and so did the SE EL34 and Savage Special Editions.
