Maybe if I found something with a simple layout like the bm or fb 100 and if it was really cheap I would give it a chance again, I would only buy used.
I would rather buy used because 1yr warranty isn't much and with a simple layout it would be easy to repair if anything ever went wrong.
Amps like the engl se are way too complicated and have too much going on inside.
If I ever buy another engl it's not gonna be anytime soon and I wouldn't sell anything I have to get one, like I mentioned before it would have to be a really cheap deal and used to make it worth it for me.
Sucks about your experiences...I remember way back when you used to rave about the SE and how badass it was. A few years ago I really wanted an SE and then when I got the chance to have some time with one realized that, for me, my Blackmore blew it away. The guy that was selling it agreed. I felt like a burden had been lifted when I realized the SE wasn't for me because A) they are expensive as hell, and B) they are way too complicated on the inside.
If you do try them again, I recommend the Fireball 100. I had one and in my opinion it did the SE high gain thing better than the SE. I definitely see myself buying one again and the only reason I sold it was to fund my Fortin.
