SYNERGY AMPS - The ENGL POWERBALL

[@ChannelForty2]

So glad you went for the clean, thank you. I'm impressed by this module!

[@nakleh]

I love when John finds his groove

[@wakjob961]

I know if I buy a SYN1 or SYN2 ...I'll go broke buying modules all the time.

[@wizardsouthJP]

Which of these Synergy modules is your favorite for high gain, if you had to pick 1 or even 2...great playing 👍🏻

[@joeconti3599]

So far they all sound great to my ears but that bogner uberschall tho (sp?) sounded fucking...just....UGH so good

[@tomcantonati9741]

So...shall we try the mother channel? *proceeds to giggle*

[@vybore9494]

I remember hearing about the Powerball around 2010 and it’s still on my list of must-haves

[@dylandoge1627]

Powerball is the only amp that djents in real life easy

[@msmartin4]

Always a pleasure to watch you riff brother!

[@bjornoldskoolfitness]

Would love to hear a comparison of the powerball synergy module vs the powerball head vs the powerball stomp box

[@stellaspoochpitfeaturingro3522]

That Mayones guitar is just out fricken standing, and yes I know the demo is about a Engl powerball module which sounds great!!

[@Auen73]

Wow........that sounds huge. Looks like it handles like a sports car too......Very nice

[@powersv2]

Great content John! The treble (or high mote tone) on this amp has a lot of clarity through the gain.

[@Mee0tchy]

Thoughts on the Savage vs Powerball modules?

[@xRamZx]

Sounds great! Can't wait for new monuments jams 🤟🏼

[@IamTheDustDevil]

Hey John, I saw a pictured on the Synergy Forum of the VHT Pitball Module...... Are you as excited as me for it's release...??? I'm looking to get the Ubershall, Savage, the Pitbull modules & because of this video the Engl powerball....To be 2 additional channels to my Revv Generator 120 with the Synergy SYN-1...Cheers

[@disruptivebutterfly8045]

This is amazing. What I would really like to see is someone utilizing the power amp side of it with an older processor like an ADA MP1 or a Marshall JMP. There are a lot of KZbin videos talking about the synergy system, I get it it’s amazing. But I’d really like someone that’s just kind of focused on the power amp itself. Thanks so much I really love this content.

[@wheresallthezombies]

Any chance you could compare the savage and the powerball? I know they’re different amps but it’d be interesting to see how they’re different. Especially with someone who focuses more on rhythm playing.

[@Ghost_WWR]

I have to say the ENGL amps sound absolutely amazing! I so would die for one. One day I’ll get one. Just need to save for one.

[@ericthomasanderson5025]

Dude i will play Quake 2 with those riff

[@taterfight]

Sounds great! The powerball has been my all time favorite high gain amp. How do you tune your guitar?

[@Mindorbitofficial]

DADGAD

[@wkkkkkk545]

@@Mindorbitofficial BAGDAD;)

[@jakebrockwell7430]

He plays in DADGAD for six string, on his seven string he tunes to DADGAD dropped to A# with the last string a fifth above the sixth string.

[@brandonproctor3639]

I'm not scared to say it.. I love a scooped mid sounding amp. It sounds heavy and f*ck+n awesome. But, in a mix I find myself definitely using a lot more mids.

[@joeygodzilla8522]

I have to say that was FUCKING AWESOME !!! your Rhythm playing "OMG"

[@BadMotivator66]

Sounds great! I’d like to see you cover some amp sims, see what you make of them

[@richardmcslick7770]

If you wanna hear leads through it, Buckethead used an engl Powerball for his... 2008 tour? Maybe 2009, Something like that

[@DarkPhantomSky]

Awesome sound!

[@ancientalien815]

I think I liked the Uberschall a little more. Both sounded KILLER though.

[@ayewhaddupdoe]

When are we get to see John Browne beat on a Steve Fryette made amp? (other than the syn5050 lol)

[@VadikRamm]

EVH 5150 III 2x12" 50-watt Tube Combo Amp with EL34 Tubes Btw, what you call "absolute trash" would probably be my best performance! lol

[@dookietoon7198]

i like it when you play guitar.

[@oh033]

I would LOVE to see you try a Fortin amp one day

[@bodhisattva126]

i've been dying to ask for months...what was Browne referring to as "the booga" as the vid starts - the bogner? Laboga? anyone?

[@juliandelrio]

Powerball 2 is not a scooped amp..it has tons of mid. 4 channels, 2 eq, 2 master, mid control, 2 presence for channel 1and2...loop efx, and gain structure is amazing

[@ItsSauIGoodman]

Tuning?

[@bhbuzzco7719]

Why is Phronesis a uk region only album now on apple music? Went to listen to it the other day and it was no longer available in US region. Sucks cause I really been listening to it a good bit. I bought a physical copy, which is coming from UK, but who know how long it will take to get here. Hopefully this can be fixed.

[@krisztianfugedi5910]

John said somewhere that the lable oofed something up, he is working on it.

[@lvonbadger1529]

The orange pups over cream is starting to grow on me

[@RubyD80]

That sounds beastly! 🖤🤘🏼

[@Jamiewipiiti]

Awesome review 👍....

[@nvab90]

Hey john, is that red beauty going to be the new Qatsi? I’ve been waiting tombuy the next iteration after the Q series. I Loved the old Ajna burst as well!

[@Coffee3lf]

John, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you quite so gleeful before. Looked like you were having a lot of fun.

[@brootalizzy4648]

Can I have your input? I have enough money to either buy a 2nd hand mayones Duvell elite 6 2600$ or a 2nd Hand blackmachine b6 2600$ Both are dream guitars and I’m just stuck between them .

[@Domino81]

Alright, I've seen a number of vids now, what's up with JB's neck??

[@knizz16]

Hey John why was one of the monuments albums removed from Spotify ??? 🥺(The best one)

[@ZellarsCustomStudio]

Same question. Phronesis disappeared from my iPod and iTunes.

[@TheChrispablo]

now there needs to be a mesa rectifier module

[@kaksoisdikki]

there are already plenty of rectifier plugins that sound good.

[@jkdsteve]

I bought the Bogner modules but now I want the Powerball too listening to this. That guitar is the tits. I own the Savage module and have owned ENGL SE and Powerball amps.....figured the Powerball would be tight A.F. and sounds like it is! \m/

[@jfrbcelloguitar]

Saludos cordiales! Ojalá pudieras ponerle subtítulos en español a tus vídeos. Gracias

[@Cuncvir]

Am I wrong, or you actually published the Bogners before this one? Or is there something else coming, from Bogners again?

[@RubyD80]

You're right, I think he did them in a different order than originally intended lol.

[@JohnBrownemonuments]

I did them in a different order haha oops

[@дмитрийЕльшин-ь8щ]

Very nice

[@Kullvir]

Love Engl

[@SlipknotPurity8]

Hey does anyone know why John doesn't turn his head? I'm just curious, cheers lads

[@phishpillz]

Without knowing I'd guess operated to be stiff from headbanging too much. 😎

[@DIZZLEJS]

Was wondering the same thing

[@JohnBrownemonuments]

Neck injury from 5 years ago, I was about to go for therapy but now can’t because of the virus

[@phishpillz]

@@JohnBrownemonuments damn dude, hope you recover nicely later. Stay safe in these times

[@SlipknotPurity8]

@@JohnBrownemonuments Oh shit, hope you can get in there soon, this virus is awful. Hope you have a quick recovery once you can finally get in. You're a monster player btw, can't wait to grab one of your qatsi models this year, cheers

[@dtalmood]

can you do a video on your hugh and kettner grand mesiter 36?

[@JohnBrownemonuments]

D T I’ve done one of the deluxe 40, I’ll ask H&K to send one over

[@dtalmood]

[@robmlisanti]

What tuning is this?

[@АнтонЕлисеев-и8т]

this right hand...

[@blankpallet2435]

YOU WOULD SOUND LIKE YOU WITH ANY AMP

[@scottclaremont4164]

how does the synergy compare to the box of doom when it comes to recording and playing live ?

[@DavelyDriven]

Tone Browne

[@DavelyDriven]

Not to be confused with brown tone

[@NathanielBTM]

I pee pee on the poo poo. Hahahaha poo poi

[@oleknowakmusic]

Great sound my friend! But why Synergy stuff has to be so expensive? :(

[@disruptivebutterfly8045]

Comparatively speaking, it’s not really that bad. When you can get a Powerball for 400 bucks. Sure you have to get the other equipment to use it but you have plenty of price point buying options. If you were to buy all the actual hats that synergy has modules for your talking tens of thousands of dollars. There is an old adage, and it still mostly holds true. You get what you pay for.

[@serverinvihatuin2654]

Rock solid!!...not talking about the video btw

[@jackmoulsdale6183]

Nerd

[@jackmoulsdale6183]

In these uncertain times, the tone has grounded us

[@jackmoulsdale6183]

If you get the tone just right, its heard that he plays forever

[@TheXxPSYCHO]

Do you record your albums with that pod xt pro behind you?
