Nice! How do you like it? The feature set is well thought out.

I'm just starting to discover all the possibilities. What I can already say :
- it's loud ! With a 2x12" Celestion Vintage 30 (old beast from the 80's), I just play with the 1 Watt setting ! The higher settings will have to wait the next band rehearsal.
- it's very easy to use. With my old MIDI pedalboard, it was really easy to program some presets. A preset can store the channel (clean/dirty), the reverb (on/off), the delay (on/off), the boost (fixed setting), the Master boost (fixed setting), the effect loop (on/off), the noise gate (on/off). It gives a lot of options and there is no latency between presets
- it's really complete : the XLR output and the 0 Watt setting is great for connecting the amp to a computer or to a FRFR cab
- the Clean Channel Presence is really a good idea
- the Reverb and the Delay sound good but of course are quite generic.

Engl is the best. I had an Engl Raider which was simply amazing. I regret selling it, but it was way to heavy for me to move anymore. The cleans were glorious.

Definitely a lot of cool features on it, especially for $1600 USD!

It's a bit cheaper in Europe : 1399 € (1563 $). But in Europe we have a 20% VAT ... that means that the raw price is 1166 € (1300 $).
The specification of the ENGL Morse 20 W are similar to the ENGL IronBall SE (Engl E606 Ironball Head 20 SE) but the IronBall is 200 € cheaper
But 200 € is nothing when you are a Morse addict

I've a question: do you like Steve Morse, perhaps???

Me ?
What makes you think that?
For the record : ENGL is a German company ... but the French distributor is Italian (MOGAR) ... thus my amp started its journey in Tittmoning, Germany, went to Milano and finally arrived in the suburbs of Paris ...

I share all the love and admiration for Steve!
MOGAR is well known here in Italy.

congrats, I´m drooling over it too.
Although ~1300 € is okay for that amp, it is much if you don´t necessarily need it - like in my case.
I´m going to Guitar Summit in Mannheim this weekend and will check it out because Engl will be there

Well, in fact I don't necessarily need it ... but the house is paid, kids are adults, Spotify gives me a few cents every month
and there is Steve Morse on the amp ...
