Thanks to Josh Sage for hooking me up. :rock:

Pretty cool amp but it's taken me a couple of hours of tweaking to get the high gain tones I like. Right now I am liking it more than the Invader 100 I had. I will do more in depth when I have had more time with it......So far so good.

Nice cleans -but not CAA OD100 nice- very nice crunch on channel 1 'high gain' and channel 2 high gain is good but I found channel 3 with low gain on and the gain dimed and low mids 1 and high mids 1 'scooped' is the best detuned riff tones I have found so far. Channel 3 with high gain on gets smooth and flubby if you're not careful- it's tricky to dial in...like channel 4 of the Invader but not as bad.

Maybe some clips and a head to head a/b with the Nitro are in order. :rock:

Looks nice!

Have you owned a SE before? If so how do you think it compares to the Morse?
 
Thanks guys...it's taken awhile to get the tones but I am finding them. Very cool amp. Here is a quick clip of some of the high gain tones...I will post more and with better audio and some better riffs instead of just wankage in the next few days. Channel 3 on 'low gain' with gain maxed and low mids 1 and high mids 1 at 10 oclock-'scooped'

Never owned the SE but had an Invader 100 which I sold to get this. Only engl I played before that was the Savage and I did not like that at all. The Invader and this are cool, though. I'm diggi'n' it. :rock:

Thanks bro. Yeah, I am diggin' it. Nice to have another amp in the house. Not that the Nitro is a slouch, just that I'm an amp whore. :D

Variety is the spice of life. :rock:
 
That clip sounds great! I'm sure the tones will get better as you learn the amp as well. It took me a good month to get my SE singing the way I like it. Congrats on a killer amp!
 
I should have Mine next week, I sure hope its not like the invaders I owned and played, I had a invader 150 and it had a problem and I exchanged it but in the breif time I had it I didnt like it, I also had a invader 100 and after a couple weeks I got rid of it.

So far my fav engl amps are the engl se,powerball and savage.
I those models and they were great and from the clips derek made I think the morse model is gonna be a winner.

I will check out the clip in this thread when I get home.
 
Thanks guys....yeah, it took me awhile to get the tones in the video. Too many controls! :doh:
With the Invader 100 it was pretty much instant but this is totally different. The cleans sound a little more 'chimy' and a better boosted gain on channel 1 on the Morse and channel 2 sounds like channel 2 of Invader but less flubby. Channel 3 does its own thing. I miss the Invaders channel 3 aggressive tone but so far the Morse is working out for me.

I will do some more clips with hopefully better tones once I get it down. So far so good. :thumbsup:
