Bugera G20 Infinium Head

Purchased this as a backup for my Marshall TSL122 that's becoming a little unreliable.
Realising I didn't need another 100W amp for the size gigs I'm doing and not having a lot of cash to spend, I thought I'd give this a try.

For the money this sounds amazing. The cleans are clear and bright and the overdrive can handle anything from classic rock to metal (almost!)

Build quality seems very sturdy and all the controls have a premium feel to them with a good resistance on the dials. It's fairly light as well, so good for lugging to practices.

It's plenty loud enough to keep up with my rock band at practices and pub/bar gigs. Not needed the volume much past halfway yet.

I'm sure there's better sounding amps out there, but for the money this is a fantastic bargain.

Awesome Head, has it all does rehearse, practice and gigs, its very versatile.

Built Quality:3/5

Cheap components like transformers.
Looks good, very well done.

Sound: 4/5

The amp covers every style of music you can think of, but it isn't a super high-gain amp. Although it does get very close. If they would have put in a touch more gain this would have been a swiss-army knife of an amp. But that is ok. The overall sound is good.

Features: 4/5
It has two chanels, digital reverb, effects loop, speaker emulated out, so it can be used in a lot of situations.

Overall impression

its a good sounding, versetile amp, but cheap components have disavantages. after one year, it started make a strange noise.
But thanks to thomann it was fixed. im waiting the arrive of the amp.
Probably it will arrive this week. Thanks for fixing it so fast, i hope it plays as good as new.

Costumer service 5/5

I was hoping to get a 2 channel amp with great clean and great drive tone but in this case I've got a Clean that is very cold and "immediate" sounding, lacking tube sag and warmth. The Drive channel is better but still too "immediate". Maybe this is something shreeders need but for my playing I need more warmth and note that bloom rather than just jump into my face.

All in all, Bugera G20 is built like a butique amp and the quality is just sublime. I have the V5 and V55 so I know their quality and the V series is just fantastic sounding on the Clean channel, but their drive channels are nothing special and therefore I tried this G20 but its just too cold sounding for me. For playing live this tone will do just fine but for studio recirding not so much unless such colness is desired from a tube amp! I need warmth and blooming notes from my tube amps.
