Can i get darkness tone out of my ENGL?

[JfromHouston]

Dan uses a Marshall MKII SL head with a Mesa V-twin pedal in front of it for their heavey sound.

Check: http://www.thedarknessrock.com/ and look at "Spiders Corner". Spider is their tech and has all their info listed.

if the amp has 6550, it can be hard to get the darkness kinda of tone. it has some squish that a 6550 just wont get. EL34 will do it, but im not sure or familiar enough with the savage 120 to know if you can stick some in there. find out if you can put some EL34 in there, and maybe do that. will get you closer to the tone you seek.

I'm going to forward this thread to my amp guy and see if he can't answer a couple of these questions.

Thanks heaps Robert, I look forward to hearing back from that

Id be quite happy with something along the lines of zakk's tone too. I dont want to copy someones tone but i want to get some kind of heavy but tasty les paul/cranked marshall type of tone...but with an ENGL which will give it that different flavour

can you make a clip of the amp? cranked? might be helpful to know where you are starting from.
