 Amazing deal for the price, great tone! Apr 25, 2010
By Chris
I was hesitant to pick up this amp due to the durability complaints about Bugera/Behringer products. Since I don't gig out, I figured I'd test my luck with this as a studio head. I've only had it for a month, so I can't really report in on that front.
The clean channel is very versatile and gets a nice compression at high volume. It sounds great with pedals -- using a TS-9 reissue, it gets that great SRV "Little Wing" solo tone.
The high gain channel is a bit fuzzy at high levels but sounds great around 5-6. Good bite and even harmonics, definitely "usable" distortion. Like any tube head, you really need to crank it to get the best sound.
It includes a footswitch to control the channels/reverb, which is all you need. There's a mid-range boost button on the head as well, but I didn't find the tone (when boosted) very usable.
My only complaints are that the reverb is not as good as an actual spring reverb, but it does the trick. It's a lot lighter than most reverbs, and I found myself turning it up to 5-6 to get what would typically be a 3-4 on a spring reverb unit.
For $350, you basically get a head that produces a ton of versatile tones and goes great with pedals. If that's what you need (as I did), this is your amp. Provided that I don't experience any durability issues, I'm a believer.

 Beautiful, really decent tone, yet had to get a 2nd model Apr 22, 2011
By Daniel Lee Hotard
I ordered this amp to be shipped to me because while I liked the combo version, I wanted the head version so I could crank through a cool big cab, and locally there was only the combo version sold. Long story short, the first model I received worked fine for a few sessions, and then had some kind of strange, loud, and unacceptable snow/fuzz going on. Spent the shipping cash to send back, and the second model has operated fine- my fingers are crossed. I've used it out like once or twice, and done a bunch of studio work with it. I am hoping the less-than-perfect chinese circuitry holds up this time.
Overall I think they did a beautiful job of creating an affordable package of tube-tone with juat the right amount of versatility/functionality without making it too complicated. Perfect for someone who just wants a to-the-point tube head. Different options for ohms depending on your cab, and also a switchable power-amp section that can go all-out with all power tubes, or just two. Great option. I really like the broken-up tone on the dirty channel. Really crispyraw and bell-ish, not annoying to the ear.
I will add to the post if any problems occur. Overall I really have enjoyed this amp.
