@commercialking Ridiculous. Your video of the Traynor is still up and it's obvious there is something wrong with it. Maybe your playing ruined it.

[Zhorellski]

There presence and resonance knobs sounds weird.? doesn't add sparkle and rumble like most presence and resonance do on other amps like randall..

@FungusLabel haha the's cose u are in trash metal, and Blackmore does so much more!

[FungusLabel]

@DarkVelizar boo I played Blackmoore last week and I wasnt impressed... 6534+ eats it...

these new traynors are fantastic, especially the 50 watt head, extremely versatile and very responsive! Personally I think the Diezels, Engl's etc. always sound the same regardless of what guitar you use. The Traynors really allow the character of the guitar and player to come through, sign of a great amp at any price point :)

I have a friend who has a Diesel Herbert, he says that ENGL SE is better, my fathers best friend has Custom Audio Electronics 100 OD and he want's to change to Bogner, so its a mater of taste, but what i have evert player, i'll go for the ENGL always!

there is no versatile amp on the planet other then ENGL, DIEZEL< H&K, and some other, but they all come from Germany, so you see dthe resemblance!

ENGL = great amp

[commercialking]

A lot of amps are better than ENGL's. Ever play a CAE or a Splawn or the AXE FX Ultra or a Soldano?

As for Traynor, I had a YCS50 combo about a year ago. It sounded like garbage for hard rock. It was a good amp if you dialed it in clean with the reverb cranked. There are lots of great amps in the world but these resurrected Traynors aren't one of them.

I'm going to tell you one huge word... ENGL, nothing beats these amps! Best amps come from Germany!
