Bugera 6262 Guitar Amplifier Head

Comments about Bugera 6262 Guitar Amplifier Head:

this is a 6505+ for one who cant afford to spend the grand. the only thing i would say that is better on this is that it has a good clean channel, and anyone with half a brain could tell that the 6505+ is definately not designed to be an amp that sounds amazing clean. the distiortion is about the same and it can push some air.

The first one i had failed on me, but the place I got it from had a great policy for returns. During the first week I had the first one, I really enjoyed the sound. The craftmanship was OK, but it well never break apart, unless you are have some sort of mental problem(Like if you like kicking amps). I compared it with a friends 6505+(they look the same!), and it wasn't really better(c'mon, its a new company!). The tone was a little muddy, and some of the distortion sounded like a solid-state. It was pretty versitile, though. Eventually, it failed, and i exchanged it. Once I played the 2nd amp, I was blown away. The first amp was probably handled by an idiot, or something, the speakers were loose and the wires were practically torn! The new, second amp recieved a good set-up, and the sound was just plain awesome. It had a great metal tone, which is good for thrash, and even power metal(yes, it can sound epic, with the right configuration). However, I think it has a better hard-rock tone, when playing chords from AC/DC. Not sure about cleans, but they do sound just right. If you got a new Bugera amp, and it sounds OK, something is wrong with it. Get it fixed, and get blown away. If you experienced what i experienced, you'll find out it is safe to say this thing can rival any amp that costs $500 more than this one. A new company usually has cheaper amps that should cost more. If Bugera ad a more respectable name, this head would cost $500 more, and I would still buy it. Don't let other amp-snobs tell you otherwise. They just want to justify their purchases of their overpriced amps.

I bought the first one of these that came into my local music store...needless to say, it worked for 2 weeks and just abrubtly stopped...[...]save yourself the trouble and buy a REAL Peavey, not this very lame knockoff...

Feature:Includes a very sturdy,all metal,4 button footswitch,with REAL BUTTONS,not those lousy little nipples spread 2 inches apart that you end up pushing simultaneously.Quality:Built like a tank,nice tight smooth pots,should last a very long time.Value:Look,if you wan't a Marshall,buy a Marshall,but if you wan't a fantastic amp with that great American Metal Tone,than this is it!And keep in mind unlike the 5150 or 6505,this can be biased for EL34 Tubes with the flick of a switch.Desirability:Great looking amp,it's basically a 5150 copy!Sound:Hands down,THE BEST BANG FOR BUCK PERIOD!!!I own an original 5150 Block Letter,and with a few tweaks on the tone knobs it sounds almost identical,but quieter,BRUTAL DISTORTION,a far better clean channel than the 5150 and Reverb.And for [$],you can afford to buy both the 6260 and a 333,and still be under a G note,FANTASTIC!Ease of Use:If your familiar with the 5150 or 6505,you won't be disappointed,remember it's [$] for a brand new amp,unless your a profesional musician,or a tone snob,you won't be disapointed.Support:I guess i'm fortunate,i've owned many amps over the years and have never had to deal with customer service,or any type of serviceing for my amps.Overall:Look,I already see allot of Bugera bashing taking place on the net.This is from guys who haven't even test driven the unit,or have listened to sound clips online.If your into the whole name dropping thing,than please do us all a favour and don't comment.style of Music: Hard Rock/Metal
