I just bought this amp so we'll see how it holds up but I have read great reviews on "the Nuke" by Bugera so I thought I would give this a shot. I have to say...for the price, and this sounds like every other review I have read on Bugera amps, you will not find a better amp. This thing has plenty of power and lots of tone shaping capability.
I am playing through an Ampeg 6x10 cab and this thing sounds almost as good as my SVT Classic that it is backing up.
Based on my first few hours of playing, I would recommend this amp to anyone on a budget.
I've been using mostly solid-state gear and have been told tubes sounded much better. I didn't want to drop the money on a valve amp unless there was truly a big difference. I played through several at GC, loving the SVT-3, but not getting enough time on it to make up my mind. I decided to buy this amp just to get some time in with a valve amp.
This buy turned out to be a great investment! No trouble with it at all and the tone and power is impressive. I am glad I bought it and if I ever have any trouble, I'll post it. I love it and now can see what all the fuss is about where valve amps are concerned! Through my 4x10 cab, volume at 1 is the limit in my house. Kaboom!!!
Wow! is all I can say about this head it is awesome powerful and amazing so warm like melted butter and with a turn of a knob it becomes knock your brian out of your head thumper this is a great bass head it is awesome and well worth the money just but a amp rack with so once you get the EQ set you dont hurt it too much
