A true classic in the world of amp heads in its latest and best reincarnation, this amp is simply incomparable when it comes to dynamics and flexibility. The Mark II includes some incredible new inner developments, as well as a bunch of new features. The MIDI port is now included as standard, as well as a finely tuned and sensitive-responding noise gate – so you’ll not be disrupted by extraneous noise, even at extreme gain settings.
Our iconic amplifier designer, Horst Langer, has also reworked the 3-band EQ from Channel 1 and Channel 2, which come freshly voiced and equipped with Lean/Bold circuits for two different mids characters. Also new is the Gain Lo/Hi circuit, where the Clean channel becomes “Crunch” in “Hi” mode, and the Lead channel gets even fatter and heavier. Four channels, tons of sound-shaping features and truly thunderous tones make the SAVAGE Mark II the perfect sound center for a modern guitar rig.
