Engl E670FE Founders Edition 6L6 100W Valve Amp Head

ENGL Amplification, Germany’s leading manufacturer of tube electric guitar amplifiers since 1983, is extremely proud to announce the launch of the ENGL E670FE Special Edition Founders Edition : the ultimate 100-watt, all-tube high gain amp.

The new E670FE is an updated version of Engl’s legendary E670 Special Edition. The Special Edition amp spent years in the studios of Edmund Engl – the founder of ENGL amps – and was played by many iconic professional guitarists, who all had their own unique thoughts and requests when it came to tone and performance. Over the years, Edmund Engl and senior designer Horst Langer tweaked the Special Edition multiple times, and now it is finally available – on ENGL’s 40 th anniversary year – to the public as an amp in ENGL’s standard portfolio as the Founders Edition.

The E670FE – supreme in a stunning black finish with chrome knobs and an in-your-face red-lit front panel illumination – has been tuned and revoiced, but still retains the crushing tones that made the previous Special Edition iconic. The amp, which features five ECC83 preamp tubes and either four 6L6 or four EL34 power amp tubes, delivers a massive range of sounds across its five channels (Clean, Crunch, Lead I, Lead II, and Tubedriver) and nine voicings, from crystal-clear cleans to searing high-gain distortion and everything in between.

The multiple sound-shaping options on board – ranging from powerful EQs and separate gain controls on each channel to Gain Boost, Hi Gain, Mid Shift, Contour, Bright, Mid Edge, Modern Classic, Mega Lo Punch, and Depth Boost switches, alongside a built-in Reverb – help make the Founders Edition one of the most versatile amplifiers on the market. Perhaps the special pick of the bunch is the Tubedriver channel, which bypasses most of the amp’s inner workings to offer the most pure circuit and all-tube tones imaginable.

On top of that, the E670FE – which is handcrafted in Germany to the highest of quality standards using only the finest components and materials – packs a wide array of practical features for the demanding modern guitarist who accepts only the best. The amp is MIDI programmable, so players can save their favorite settings in up to 128 presets with the use of an optional external MIDI controller. There is also a threshold-footswitchable noise gate, a Power Tube Monitor, three tube buffered FX Loops, a line output and multiple cabinet output options on board.
