My Grandma Glenn And I Check Out The New ENGL SAVAGE 120 MARK 2!

I was a recent guest on my grandma Glenn Fricker‘s YouTube channel, and we were lucky enough to take a look at the new ENGL Savage 120 Mark II amplifier! This amp seems to be capable of damn-near any kind of high-gain tone with the number of knobs and controls on it. We were able to get some pretty crushing sounds out of it, but you’ll have to let us know what you think (mostly for grandma as she’s hard of hearing).

I studied music on both coasts (Berklee and SSU) and now I'm just trying to put my degree to some use. That's a music degree, not an English one. I'm sure you noticed.
