NEW REVIEW - WOWWW!!!
First of all, it looks incredible. It has a leather covering, and it looks really well built. The amp modeling is AWESOME... and it can get SO loud. It also has great tone, with thumping base all the way to highs. I'd gave it 4 and a 1/2 stars, though, cause the distortion is more of a fuzz. But its still definitely the best in it's price range. Now if only I could get the 60 watt...

Great sound, very versatile, and an awesome deal
Highly recommended. A fantastic deal, providing far better tone and far more versatility than any comparably priced amp out there. The Behringer V-Tone GM108 is an analog modeling amp that essentially appears to be a reverb-less copy of Tech 21's great line of Trademark amplifiers. Like the Tech 21 amps, this amp has three voicing switches (to control the amp, mod, and speaker settings), which, along with the 3-band EQ and drive control, provide great versatility.
In addition to lacking reverb (a feature which I was afraid I'd miss, but which really isn't necessary given the great tone this amp is capable of), the Behringer probably won't provide the kind of pristine direct recording sound quality of which the Tech 21 amps are capable, but it can probably come pretty close. I only use it at home for practice and as something I can take to jams without worrying about it getting damaged, lost, or stolen, and for those purposes it's fantastic, esp. as it cost only $60, as opposed to $300 for my Tech 21 Trademark 30 (which admittedly is 30 watts, whereas this Behringer only pumps out 15).
I shopped around and tried out amps costing up to twice the amount I ultimately paid for this Behringer and none of them, including the Vox Pathfinder, Fender Frontman, Roland Cube, and various low-end Peavey and Crate amps, could hold a candle to it, and many of those cost far more for cheap-sounding tone and a much more limited set of features. I bought this amp unplayed and sight unseen based on other reviews I had read and on my ownership of Tech 21 products, and I have absolutely no regrets.

Great amp
I have had this amp for two years, and it still makes the same great sound it did when I got it out of the box. At first glance this amp might seem like a little amp that can't really do much, and maybe you'll buy it for your daughter or something. Well this amp is more than that. 15W? This thing shakes the windows and a few things fell off of the wall. The distortion sounds it produces are really nice, and you can get it to make pretty much any sound. I would recommend this amp for new players and for experienced players alike. You simply cannot go wrong here.

A Great Practice Amp
My friend owns this amp, and I have played it. It gives off a pretty good sound for 15w, and it does get quite loud. The treble is excellent for an amp of its price range. Distorted, it does not sound the best, but it is good for practice. If you're just at home playing by yourself, this is the amp to get.

Good Deal
This amp (Behringer V-Tone GM108 15W Modeling Guitar Combo Amp) is pretty cool for it's price. The combinations of amp models and tones are almost endless. It has a 8" speaker which is great for practice or recording, can really pack a punch. Its a good size, great for travel, and I always get complements on how good it sounds for it's size. I would never go to a band practice without it.

Love This Amp
This is a great amplifier, it sounds how youw ant it to sound, it is light easy to work, i love the analog modeling! Even without a pedal it sounds good. I usually dont have to turn it past 5 to practice, it can get very loud and at any volume you still get the nice crunch

So much, so cheap!
I've been learning for some time on acoustic and am new to these equipment choices, but I never, ever expected this much out of a $60 amp. I had looked at some of the "starter pack" deals but found quality and features lacking in guitar, amp or both, so decided to build my own package. This is a perfect complement to the guitar I chose and the kind of music I concentrate on. It sounds wonderful; it's powerful, for a practice amp, and crystal clear when you want it to be; it offers a great variety of sounds and effects; it's built like a brick and will probably last for years; and it's simply and elegantly engineered. What more could you ask for? Completely pleased with the purchase.

Its good for the money
This amp is ok. It has a ton of features and it is a great amp for the price. It is pretty loud, But if you turn it up with distortion it gets really muddy. It is a great beginer amp because of all the built in effects. But if you get this amp you will have to get a different amp someday. And it is not enough to gig with. Good beginer practice amp thought.

BIG sound, little package
When I first got this amp in a starter pack, my first thought was that it's only a small 15w amp. But I was in for a surprise. First off, when I used it, I was in big shock how loud this amp is. In fact, I couldn't go past 2 without my parents banging at my bedroom door complaining about how loud my amp is.
Another amazing feature is the modeling. With just a few flicks of the switches, turn up the OD knob to 10, and a little bit of messing with the 3-band EQ, I can get the desired amp model that I want for such a limited choice of selections.
But, like all practice amps, it's not meant for live gigs in spite of it's ridiculously loud volume, as I experienced in one of my gigs about two months ago.
Overall, this amp is a wonder amp for practice. Eventually I may have to move on to a bigger amp, but this amp is mighty handy for those small-time practice/warmup sessions. I'll be keeping this for a very long time.
