I bought this to replace a 1973 Carvin solid state amp that sounds exactly like a Marshall Plexi because the Carvin has started showing its age and losing its sparkle. I picked this amp because of the one review here and the price. I am glad I did! 22 watts is loud enough for any club I am playing in and it gets miked to boot. Everything is sensitive on this amp: the two volumes, master and the eq. The dirty channel breathes fire if you want it to and the clean channel is clean unless you push it a bit... then you are pushing the power tubes into distortion which has a pleasant vibe depending on how hot your guitar pickups are. If you are looking for an amp you want to push on stage this is it. Forget Fender... this has much more character than their deluxes and cost less that half as much. What a great amp!

First, I'd like to take a moment to acknowledge that zZounds has the best customer service that I've ever encountered. Usually I have trepidation when it comes to speaking to customer service from other businesses. Not so with zZounds.Now for the amplifier. I find that the clean channel on this amp is as good as amps that cost hundreds, if not thousands more. This is my third decade of performing and teaching. I've had valve amps and solid state amps. The V22 Infinium is a great amp for any amount of money. It doesn't blow the windows out, but it has plenty of headroom and volume. I'm looking forward to hooking it up to a 4x12 or 4x10 cabinet. The cleans have that tone that can only be described as multi-dimentional. The dirty channel gives me all the gain I need without going overboard. I'm not a distortion fan, so I don't care that this isn't a metal amp. I'm a Blues fanatic along with loving Jazz/Fusion, and this amp gives me those sounds I've been after.I've had some REALLY good solid state amplifiers, but let's be honest: valve amps are where tonal nirvana is. Valves allow for the inspiration so the artist can freely express him or herself.

I just got the amp a week ago and have only had the chance to log a couple hours on it; but, I have to say, I love this amp. The clean channel, as most have mentioned, is gorgeous. The gain channel sounds really good with some of my guitars, kind of bad with others-- I have guitars with a variety of pick-up configurations-- so I would encourage players to mix & match (as much as you're able) to find the right guitar before you totally dismiss the dirty channel. Also, the EQ knobs do make a difference, so don't expect a "one-size-fits-all" EQ setting. For example,I had the EQ perfectly dialed in on a P90 guitar only to have it sound farty when I plugged in humbuckers-- the good news is, I found a gorgeous (different) EQ setting for THAT guitar. That kind of tinkering may bother some players (personally, I'm okay with it and think the amp's dialed-in tone is worth it). My dream amp is a Fender Deluxe Reverb (which I can't afford) and this is a GREAT alternative for me-- the cleans are beautiful, shimmery when given the right amount of reverb; when it's turned up to just the point of break up and then has a Boss Blues Driver or Tube Screamer added, the dirty channel becomes irrelevant, because this Bugera gets a very satisfying Classic Rock crunch. I love this amp already and I haven't even had a chance to break it in, experiment with mods, etc. Tremendous amp for only $400 (and with the right pedal, the clean channel can do almost anything.) I highly recommend it.

What a great amp. Since receiving it my other amps including Vox, Blackstar, and more have sat idle. Amazing tones from this amp. For the money you won't find a better value. Stop thinking about it and just order one. Zzounds had it to my door in 3 days. This is my new go-to store for all thing musical.

I bought my V22 Infinium used, but nearly new. What they say about the tubes is true; mine went out shortly after I began using it and I replaced them with JJs. I also removed the tube cage, which developed a rattle. That involved having to take the speaker out in order to reach the last screws, but it was pretty simple to achieve. Those are the drawbacks. I'd read that these amps have similar sonic characteristics as a Deluxe Reverb and I've found that this one sounds very well in tune with my ' 65 Fender Strat and my ancient Fender Esquire. The sound for my two guitars with humbuckers and P-90s is adequate but to my ears sounds a little harsh without the warm Duane Allman-ish tones I desire. That said, I would not hesitate to make this purchase again. The amp is solid and a huge bang for the buck. Like other reviews I've read, I've found the clean channel to be the champ here. It plays very pretty with my Fenders. Now that I have good tubes in it, I'm very happy with the Bugera and have no regrets. It's so far been reliable and I wouldn't hesitate to do a club gig with it. I also like that I can flip a switch to toss it down to a 20-watt amp. My neighbors across the street probably appreciate that.

Just got my Burgera v22, and my o my am i so pleased. The sound is amazing. The dirty channel is great, live the reverb, love everything about this amp. Ive played threw tube amps all my life. I never thought i would be able to afford one that is all mine, I was lucky enough to be born into a family was a pro guitar player that had tons of equipment that i got to use. This was the first purchase of a tube amp of my own. I am glad it was the Burgera V22. the guys at zZounds are the best, there play as you pay program is the best thing going in finance today hands down. If you in the market for an all tube amp but just dont cant pay the price that they are asking. Get one of these you will love it

Great amp I noticed the prices keep going up on these lately. I don't really use the gain channel, although it sounds very good. I just use the clean Channel and get everything else from pedals, however it does come with a footswitch and if you run your time-based effects through the effects Loop you could use this as a plug-and-play amp. Really if you just played rhythm and blues you don't even need any effects the Reverb works great. It really does have a unique sound I'm not big on the el84 type sound but for some reason this circuit works extremely well. Definitely loud enough for gigs and if you have a big band just put it through the PA.
