As some of you have seen in the new equipment thread, I just got my first tube amp: the Bugera V22. This thing has blown my socks off. Given that my last amp was a Roland Micro Cube that's probably par for the course but the cleans on this thing sing and I can finally appreciate my Agile 3000 for the great instrument it is. The low end is nice and full while I tend to keep the treble and presence rolled back a fair bit cause it is a little chimey at the top end. And that's without the boost. With the boost, it sounds like I'm playing with The Kinks(think old school British band). Not only are the cleans beautiful but there is a lot of crunchiness pumped out by the preamp. I was expecting to have to put a peddle in front of this for a decent distortion but it's fine on its own, save for heavy metal. Unfortunately I can't really get the output tubes to breakup due to the ridiculous 22 watts and living in an apartment building. When I crank the clean volume to 10 I cant set the master past 1 without pissing off my neighbours and my cat. Aside from my agile, this is my best instrument purchase ever. No regrets and hopefully no breakdowns like a lot of you are on about in the other thread. Crossing my fingers and hoping not to be struck down by the Behringer curse.
