Ritchie Blackmore Signature E650

Ritchie Blackmore is not just a well-known player; he created THE most famous guitar riff in the universe! For us, this was reason enough to have him as an ENGL artist. Ritchie has an incredibly fine ear for tone and has had a long-standing impact on rock music, and so we created his signature amp based on the Savage. Ritchie’s amp is slimmed down features-wise compared to the standard Savage, but it’s just as tonefully powerful. The 6L6 power tubes deliver that typical vintage sound which is Ritchie’s signature, while the two Channels actually turn out to be four; there are two switchable Master Volumes and the proven Lo/Hi Gain circuit!
