Bugera V22 INFINIUM 22-Watt Vintage 2-Channel Tube Combo with INFINIUM Tube Life Multiplier, Original Turbosound Speaker and Reverb

Only had this a few days, so I will reserve judgement, however initial impressions are: - It seems well built, no rattles, dodgy finish, loose knobs or other issues - Has a very high quality 12 inch Turbosound speaker - impressive on initial listening and will get better as it loosens up - The sound quality from this amp is fabulous - both in clean and dirty modes - I have already had comments from a guitar player who has played many high-end amps that this is one of the best sounding he has ever played - It is versatile, two power modes (Triode = Low and Pentode = High) which have different audio characteristics, mid-boost, which is best left on for lower volume operation, two speaker outs, so will drive two cabinets at the same time, footswitch included, standby mode which is useful to keep it ticking over when not playing - It blows away my 100 watt Marshall Head, which granted is a Solid State MG, but even so this V22 is in a different league altogether Couldn't be more impressed at present; time will tell if it will be reliable, but I've no reason to suspect it won't.

What can I say Absolutely head over heels in love with this amp,played guitar as an enthusiastic amateur for 40 years All through solid state amps No comparison,silky smooth clean sound and just dirty enough on the gain channel and a free foot pedal!! It’s a no brainer for the price If you’re into screaming metal maybe not for you

I was really looking forward to getting this amp, and initially i wasn't disappointed. The two channels are great and the tone was great for the sound i was after, rock/blues. However the one of dials was broken, not a biggie but when its new and arrives like that it is annoying. They could replace but give me some money so all good. After playing it for a about a week the tube replacement light came on. Surprising as I was expecting them to last 18 months at least.....it went off for a few days then came back. That did it for me, sent it back and bought a Marshall DSL instead.

Having owned various guitar amps over the years no of them even come closed to the Bugera. If you love the sound of a tube amp, don't spend hundreds of pounds on a fender or vox, buy the Bugera and like me you will be literally blown away. Just a shame that it comes with such bad valves, I would recommend upgrading to JJ valves as you will notice a big difference.

If you need a valve amp just get It with no regret. Its value is far more than the price. It seems to me a Brit amp Vox like with some Fender vibe. Sturdy and well built. Thank you Bugera.

Most impressive valve amp with great tonal versatility. Have owned Fender Twin and Marshall valve amps and the Bugera holds it's own no problem.
