I bought a Richie Blackmore ENGL halfstack for $600 in the ghetto of Chicago out of some abandoned sketch ass warehouse that bands practiced at. Dude had have stolen it or simply needed coke really bad. This is pretty cool too.
Kinda of ironic. Cause i bought an engl savage 120 for 400$ years ago from a band that was feuding with another band and stole it. I felt bad but it wasnt my fight.
This was probably a good 15 years ago, but googlemaps shows the rock spot near midway in that shit hole neighborhood so that very well may be the place. How many abandoned warehouses are now studios/practice spaces? Def was a trip and an experience haha@@DayOfMyEntombment
I came here every day to listening you playing..... Thanks for all magic moments but .... it was really fare for my hart you to record a complete playtrough of the track! what a moment .... Epic mini track......
Browne, you’re looking well bud. Content is fabulous with just the right level of depth to give us mere mortals a view of what some of this gear can do. That Synergy module thingy seems to open up many tonal options for not ridiculous expense. Keep churning out the great content mate. 👍🏻
Love thene synergy videos! Would love to see a complete guide to the Synergy stuff :) Btw it's fucking awesome that you're getting more active on your channel!
Great presentation and playing as always, but I'm a little confused as to the 3:45 part. Description says it is sponsored. I might be misinformed as to what kind of deal this is though, so genuinely wondering. Anyone knowledgeable about this?
Wicked playing per usual. Do you use your p rails in standard humbucker mode or do you have the switching on board to allow you to use the p90 or single coil functions? #riffhard
@@JohnBrownemonuments do you use the bridge position in parallel rather than series for your rhythm playing? I'm assuming this is the case because there's so much clarity and note definition. Whichever configuration you use it compliments your play style in a great way
$400? Fuck no... you need to buy the module and the base. So it's actually a $1,295 (AUD but should be around/slightly less than $1K USD) Engl Savage. And that's only the preamp! Can pick up a Blackmore for about $1,500 (AUD) second hand.
John Browne haha-you see dead people🤪 Just a quick question for u mate...I just bought a Syn30 head with the Diezel VH4 & ENGL Savage mod’s- and I’ve watched all ur Video’s regarding the Synergy system ect and no matter what I do I can’t get even close to the tight response and tone that you get?? I’m running the head straight into my Friedman 4/12 and pushing the front with a Precision Drive and the TC Dreamscape...any pointers you can throw @ me Mr 6th Sense😝👍 Awesome to hear from the man himself- love your work mate- fuckn mint🦾
I mean yes, you could also say that the guitar, cable, strings, skill, cab, computer and everything else associated with getting a sound means you're going to spend way more than that too haha. But after you've bough the SYN1, it's $400 for an Engl Savage.
400 $ isn't that special imo. I sold my Savage 60 for that price and for 350 eur ( approx 400$) I bought a Fireball 60. Engl amps in Europe can go for cheap
Riffs so cool its snowing inside

higler yeah i saw one in my area for like $800 with the cab too. nothing wrong with it, just a few scratches
They have really low resale value for some reason, they're great amps tho
Was it the Rock Spot? Lol

"It's just two channels of savagery." Perfect description.
Dude I seriously love your demos! The gear is dope, but watching you play is super inspiring man.
Jeez thats one expensive signal chain lol. Phenomenal playing man
WOW.... one of the first times I've heard a tone that I love in the mix and alone! Most of the time it's one or the other. Sounds inspiring.
Tyler Saltmarsh hardly any post eq either, posted the settings in my players lounge on FB.
Your sound goes through a Lord of The Rings length journey before it comes to my ears lol
ahahaha comment of the fucking week!
Such a solid player bro! Always enjoy watching you jam man! Keep up the great work !
Bad a$$ riff John and the tone sounds sick. Nice
just got this module due to your demo. that opening song was great! great job!
Love your playing man. That pick hand is especially wicked .
I came here every day to listening you playing.....
Thanks for all magic moments but .... it was really fare for my hart you to record a complete playtrough of the track!
what a moment ....
Epic mini track......
a solo by browne? we've peaked, boys
More like 1300$ ENGL Savage, because you need to buy pre-amp too :D
sounds massive, killer riffing
This will be my first synergy module!!
Even with the new Powerball being out now?
No picture with Acle :(
Oh shit I forgot! my bad...
@@JohnBrownemonuments Happens to the best of us :)
@@RubinRahman Could probably find it on SSO
He didn't forget hes always been salty about acle cuz he's better than John nobody sucky line 6 pod brown.
@@project-gruve7102 tf is your problem
Brother u just sold me on this this single is going on my rack drawer 4cm into my helix very cool thanks

"It doesn't really get to clean but, no one needs clean" Love it
Very cool John! My friend and I were talking about how wicked that riff is. I want to buy it as its own pack tho!
Love thene synergy videos! Would love to see a complete guide to the Synergy stuff :)
Btw it's fucking awesome that you're getting more active on your channel!
love you gear reviews, but secretly I'm mainly watching your vids to hear and see you play which is always a pleasure haha
The fact that this module inspired him to music is a good sign.
Incredible riffs.
Hey John, I know you like (or at least you've liked) the Laney stuff. Could you make a review of the irt 60 or 100?
Secondedededededed
Yes pls.
As far as i know Browne used to play an IRT Studio, i'd love to see a full review
Soo cheap 2nd hand..its a beast, better than some 3000€ amps
SO GREAT!
so cool, love you sound
Woow! John , where I can find this song? Sound incredible!
I’ve been waiting on this one
Those IKEA chairs are the best :D
Sounds amazing! Boost it!
“Lots of swearing.”
Sold.
That sounds snarly and grindy as fuck. So tasty.
John using all the expensive chords.
Love the track dude!
Dude...can you just upload videos of you playing? Seriously, I get so inspired listening to you play, no matter what it is.
1:41 you know you love what you're playing when you make faces like that
Great content, Browne. Love the conversational, laid back style.
Great presentation and playing as always, but I'm a little confused as to the 3:45 part. Description says it is sponsored. I might be misinformed as to what kind of deal this is though, so genuinely wondering. Anyone knowledgeable about this?
Probably sponsored in the way that they sent the amp for him to give his opinion about it
Helix!!! 😍
Great demo! I'd love to see what you do with that new Neural DSP "Plini" plugin.
Brownie you have to record that track on an album.....please
Wicked playing per usual. Do you use your p rails in standard humbucker mode or do you have the switching on board to allow you to use the p90 or single coil functions? #riffhard
For the rhythm and leads it's on humbucker mode, for cleans it was in single coil.
@@JohnBrownemonuments Thats sick!!

Proud owner of an Engl Invader 2 :), and yes holy shit!
Some say the picture with Acle is still being rendered
Metal prog rhythm mayhem... 👍🤘
To talk about my signal chain... it’s enough to purchase a small house but I can do that so I did.

This should be a Flux song fuck
have you tried the savage v2?
Where can I buy tabs? The patreon seems invalid.
The clarity.
Any chorus, delay or reverb?
has anyone noticed the Orbs floating around in this video- John's got visitors in there!!
Matt Nolan I’m the sixth sense boy, without eyes that are too close together

demo the black spirit 200 please =)
12:04 : That's what she said ? :D
compression to smooth to be coming from that amp!!!
What are you using for your amp shelf?
demisephil Ikea!
That songs nasty as fuckkkkkk tho
What tuning are you playing in? Just Drop C?
I think it’s open C
It's really big and thick, like a giant.. big....
You should yuse that guitar here more often. Just saying. ;)
And to be fair.....$400 is an illusion - in order to use their module you're going to have to spend WAY more than that.
I mean yes, you could also say that the guitar, cable, strings, skill, cab, computer and everything else associated with getting a sound means you're going to spend way more than that too haha. But after you've bough the SYN1, it's $400 for an Engl Savage.
@@JohnBrownemonuments touche - still a killer product.
...ummm...penile rails....wtf???.....I know..I know...he didn't say that....
Could honestly play some Disturbed through this and get a FAT sound

god dammit i want a savage 60 and can't find one for the life of me in switzerland. got a blackmore, but i really want that el34 savage.
