as far as i can tell, they're made by Behringer, who do high quality stuff, but at reasonable prices.

Looks interesting

Wonder if people will mispronounce the name as Buggerer (said Mr Felini)

Who is this Shane Gibson? :?

Behringer has guts (of wrong kind) copying other manufacturer's designs (BOSS, EH etc and now Peavey). Saves them the trouble of R&D I guess. Cheeky Buggerers.

exactly. that's why i love them though: despite what everyone says, i haven't had any trouble with their products. yeah yeah i know.... if i stomp on my EQ700 too hard the plastic foot pedal part will fall off, but that'll teach you to abuse your stompboxes in future! :P

my GM108 is fine, a little bit of ungrounded hum, and again, if i kick the knobs, they'll fall off, but generally good quality. 2 years of metal abuse and no problems.

i'd love to check out these amps...... maybe they've improved on the Peaveys instead of copying them.... interesting.
i have no idea who Shane Gibson is, never heard of him until now.

looks like they'll be undercutting Peavey by a few hundred quid as well.

they're cheap peavey copies with shitety marshallized tone, its almost like Madison all over again. If theyre anything like the rest of behringer, they'll stop working beyond repair after a year or two.

my behringer amp is fine after 2 years of MAXIMUM GAIN AND BASS AT 10 which, if it was cr@p quality, would destroy the speaker, overheat it, etc. but it doesn't have any problems. don't jump to conclusions. but then again, the bigger the more unreliable (with amps, and that's only usually!)

The only possible excuse for getting something like that is if you already have a fuchs, a bumbox, and a koch, and want to complete the collection.

i can't pass judgment until i hear it but Behringer have a habit of OVERCHARGING for the quality of the product. They look cheap on paper, but there are FAR better amps out there for similar prices.
and the V-amp analogue modelers sound like a fart.

The V-Amp series are digital, and they actually sound pretty good if you know how to set it up right (see my sig) :P
