hi and welcome to Ola testing and
this of the day is the new angle
savage mark to amplifier what can
[Music]
the original angle savage amplifier was
my main guitar amplifier for about seven
years back in the day and some of you
might remember my absolute first videos
where I used one and today I'm extremely
excited to try out the new and updated
Mark 2 version of the savage and as you
can see the looks have been updated its
way more stealthy looking but if you're
familiar with the original savage you'll
see that the control layout is somewhat
similar except that you just have a lot
more button options as you can see here
you still have four channels you have
clean and crunch on the top row and you
have the crunch - and lead on the bottom
row and the button options are just way
too many you have input high and low you
have a bright switch you have a pre
shape for the crunch in the clean
channel a contour switch there you have
a mid lean or bold on the clean channel
this button allows you to have two
differently to med controls for clean
and crunch ow and for the bottom two
channels you have gained low and high
contour switch rough and smooth and then
you have other options like noise gate
depth boost
presence A or B so you can switch
between two different presence settings
you have to master volumes that you can
switch between you have two effects look
one serial and one parallel effects loop
they can switch between powerup section
you still have this 6550 parent tubes
but there's also a 60-watt version of
the head with al 34 tubes six preamp
tubes two effects loop I said that
already and the app is also MIDI control
so you can save all the modes and
settings and so on and the noise gate
you have a dial here at the back just
like on a lot of the other angle
amplifiers and the original savage did
not have one so that's very awesome to
see it
[Music]
alright I'm gonna shut up and just play
a little bit okay so here we go I
tricked you the app was on at all times
but it was so quiet that you you yeah
you can hear
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
okay I'm on the crunch - right
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
that's that noise gate is tight as the
anus
[Music]
a nice contour
[Applause]
[Music]
their response is amazing
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
what I really like about the savage ikan
controls is that they're not very spiky
in that sense I mean you can turn off
the trouble here and it does not
necessarily cut your ears like a razor
blade I mean you can still play it
there's a lot to take in there you can
probably hear it in the recording but
it's still kind of pleasant to listen to
[Music]
okay so now we're in the high input
stage let's switch it to low
[Music]
all right okay you know my favorite
channel and the one that I used back in
the day was the lead channel and I'm
just kind of like it's just I just want
to go there
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
that low-end is so chunky and compact
like it's real like a like a complete
hit the frequencies are not bossing all
over the place it's really really
compact in a good way
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
yeah the gay that's working really well
even though there's a bunch of gang
going on okay what's even more gay okay
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
yeah that is a whole lot of gain it's
still tight and it's just extremely
chunky it's ah it's nice so you also
have a rough in a smooth mode
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
so the rough and smooth is a good way if
you want to boost up a lead some sorry
to go into the smooth mode like this so
you go from
[Music]
so they're rough in this mood option
here it's really good if you want to
jump in between a really buttery type of
lead tone to a very tight aggressive
rhythm
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
okay I guess we should play with the top
row as well that's the clean channel and
the crunch but you know what I would say
personally I only played the lead shell
when I had my savage but then again I'm
a hopeless metal nerd so
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
you
[Music]
right okay
[Music]
I mean the tonal possibilities here I
dropped my pick where did it go I have
no idea on some floor okay
so as you can see you have a mid not for
the lien mode and a mid now for the bold
modes there's just so many options I
mean you have four channels but there's
so many modes on each channel that this
is more like a twelve channel amplifier
in that sense so
[Music]
[Applause]
have I planed enough though to clean
channel all can I go back to lead thank
you
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
I'm not sure which motor liked the most
when you have the contour switch off
it's just you know really Pleasant and
nice but when you engage it it's like
I'm so full and it's like the full-blown
Amos punch right there
[Music]
[Applause]
oh man all right I have to stop
sometime but yeah that's definitely that
angle some that I love it's nice to hear
and to be honest I thought it was about
time for angle to release a second mark
of this amplifier and yeah when they
found that it sounds absolutely lovely
well done for more information check out
angle apps don't de I'm all Englund
testing this is not this is
angle savage mark - okay see ya bye
[Music]
