Four footswitchable channels of metal-worthy tones

Courtesy of its four versatile channels, the ENGL Powerball II handily covers the myriad of tonal textures found within contemporary metal. This tube head's Clean channel yields sparkling crystalline tones reminiscent of a British Invasion-era amplifier — even at rafter-shaking volumes.  Don't worry, when it comes to high-gain, the Powerball II exceeds all expectations. Its Lead 1 and Lead 2 channels elicit enough punishing sonic brutality to make any metal guitarist grin. The Clean and Crunch channels share a 3-band EQ as do the Lead 1 and Lead 2 channels, supplying you with loads of tone-shaping power.

Loaded with pro-level features

There's nothing barebones about the Powerball II — it's chock-full of professional features. Its tube-buffered FX loop makes integrating it with the rest of your rig a breeze, and its adjustable Balance control gives you the added flexibility high-level guitarists demand. A made-to-measure noise gate on the Lead channels keeps unwanted hiss, noise, and feedback at bay, without negatively affecting your tone or performance. The Powerball II's Power Tube Monitor safeguards against performance-destroying tube shorts, shutting down the offending tube while permitting you to continue using the still-functioning tube. You also get ENGL's S.A.C. (Serial Amp Control), which allows you to command various amp functions remotely.
