ENGL E302 RockMaster 20 Combo 1x10 inches

Allmänt

The ENGL E302 RockMaster 20 Combo is a compact guitar tube amp based on the popular GigMaster 15. This model, however, is voiced specifically for producing that classic rock sound; even a grey control panel and speaker cloth were chosen for an attractive vintage look that would match the sound. The E302 RockMaster 20 Combo is equipped with two switchable channels powered by two ECC83 preamp tubes. Two EL84 power tubes are responsible for driving the 10-inch Celestion G10N-40 speaker with 20 watts of power. The cherry on top of the ENGL RockMaster is the inclusion of switchable digital reverb.

ENGL E302 RockMaster 20 Combo: operation and sound

The control panel consists of 8 chicken-head knobs, two switches, two buttons, and an input jack - all of which can be found on the stylish grey front panel. The clean channel has a gain control (volume) so you can adjust your sound from sparkling clean to nice and edgy. To the right of that is the lead gain, which offers anything from rock crunch to screaming hard rock leads. Both channels share a 3-band EQ and a mid-boost function, which is perfect for helping solos cut through the mix. Thanks to the master volume control, you can adjust the total volume of the amplifier without having to adjust the volume balance between the clean and lead channels.

Integrated Power Soak and versatile connectors

You'll find the built-in Power Soak function on the back of the ENGL E302 RockMaster 20 Combo. This allows you to lower the power from 20 W to 5 W or even 1 W, so you get the same tube overdrive and dynamics at lower volumes. You can also switch off the speaker during recording by using the speaker simulation via the line output. An FX loop makes it easy to connect your favourite effects pedals and/or processors, and you can get even more sound by adding optional 1x 8, 1x 16 of 2x 8-ohm speaker cabinets. Finally, if you add the two optional foot switches or the ENGL Z-4 to the mix, you can control the channels, reverb, mid-boost and FX loop from a distance while you play.
