Savage Amps has been producing high quality vacuum tube and solid-state amps since 1990. Based in the Minneapolis, Minnesota, area, the company offers amps designs for people seeking a vintage or boutique tone. Some of the big names currently using Savage Amps are Pearl Jam, Sheryl Crow, R.E.M., Foo Fighters, and Beck, to name a few.

The Rohr 15 amp features everything that the larger Savage amps do but it a little smaller and more compact. It’s a class A amp that is great for both studio play and using for gigs. It is a 15 watt amp that features two channels and is powered by two EL-84/6BQ5 tubes.

The Glas 30 amp serves up some powerful & clear low-end and while still featuring all the brilliance that a class A amp offers. It’s a 30 watt amp that features two channels and four special Savage inputs.

Inspired by amps from the vintage amps of '50s, the Blitz 50 is a very versatile amp that can produce a lot of different sounds. It’s a 50 watt amp that uses two EL-34 tubes for class AB operation.

Finally, the Schatten 19 is the newest Savage amp. This 19 watt, class A tube amp features two EL84 power tubes, a EF86 and 12AX7 preamp tube, and a 6CA4 rectifier tube to create some amazing sounds.

Question: Mesa Dual Rectifier vs ENGL Invader or Savage amps?
I'm lookin into getting a new amp. And I've gone from everything from Randall, Marshall, Peavy, Line 6, Carvin, Hughes and Kettner, Fryette, Hiwatt, Mesa, and ENGL. And I thought I had settled on the MESA for my style of music. But than most recently I researched ENGL more and saw how great there reviews were, and saw there gain and everything was compared to MESA, and said to be better then the MESA's. My style is hard rock, similiar to Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, Chevelle, 3 Doors Down, Hinder, Killswitch Engage, Bullet For My Valentine. But mostly Breaking Benjamin. But I like allot more gain than there songs have for my own stuff. So it would seem one of the ENGL amps would be the choice, but I wanted a second opinion. Thanks.

Answer:

I love the mesa Dual rectifier, I think it's one of the best amps possible for metal or hard rock. I must say I didn't know the invader, but I've been thinking about buying a powerball for a long time, so I checked some clips. Seems it's even better than the powerball... The mesa might be a bit more versatile, but I love that deep sound from Engl tops...

Whatever you're gonna pick, I'll trade them any day for my marshall half stack... I am sure you won't regret buying either of the amps.

Savage Rohr 15

The Savage Rohr 15 Boutique Amp is a Class A amp that includes many of the features and control of larger Savage amps while still having its own, unique sound. It has a specially designed tone section that makes the Rohr 15 stand out, and it is perfect for use on stage, in the studio, and while practicing at home. It is, of course, all hand-wired and uses only the best transformers and components. It’s an all tube amp as well that pulls 15 watts of power and can carry a 4, 8, or 16 Ohm load.

The Rohr 15 is a 1x12 combo amp and is powered by 2-EL-84/6BQ5 tubes. It has two input channels and four input savage designs. The controls include reverb, tone, master volume, treble, middle, bass, and volume for both the normal and bright channels. One of the best things about this little amp is that it is fairly light and easy to take on the road with you. Its various options give you a lot of control over your tone, something you don’t often find in a smaller amp. The only downside to the Savage Rohr 15 is that it is fairly expensive—you may pay upwards of $2,500 to $3,000 for one.
