All user reviews of 5/5 for the Behringer Blue Devil GX112

Bought from local music store (Allen Music) in Paducah, Ky. for $229.00 to replace a small practice amp.

The Blue Devil has plenty of power for practice or a small gig! Still easy to carry, but has great bass response and volume to spare. The 99 preset effects are very good. The clean channel is fantastic! I would put it up against any $1000 amp!

The distortion channel is a little weak if you like to use a heave crunch. A good distortion box in the clean channel is the best way to go with the Blue Devil.

It is very rugged and easy to carry. Haven't had it long, but seems to hold up well.

Fantastic value for the price. I've never seen a unit with so many features for anywhere near this price!

Mars Music. 2001. $300. I needed a practice/stage monitor amp that had adequate I/O - could accomodate a Roland GR-33 Synth & output to a PA, & good tube emulation.

The Inputs & outputs are great. The tone is great. It faithfully reproduces whatever you put through it.
The lines out are well balanced.
It works very well with the VAmp 2.
The effects are very good for a multi-effects unit & outputs in stereo- to headphones, another amp or to a stereo PA.
You'll need a midi foot controller to switch patches easily on stage. I just use the VAmp 2 & a MIDI pedal.

Can't complain at that price. It's now $200+ Tax,S&H.

Adequate- be gentle. I roll it around on a luggage carrier.

I still am happy with this amp after a year+ & use it on stage weekly at a contemporay music based Church. This is not an amp for a large R&R or metal venue- maybe a club or coffehouse would be ok, unless you rely on a PA.

$229.00 (US) plus tax. My 17-year old son is an accomplished guitarist - I bought him a Yamaha FG-150 (yeah, the same acoustic Country Joe McDonald played at Woodstock) when he was ten. We researched internet prices on the Blue Devil, and a local dealer matched the price. We have four acoustics, one electric (a Fender he's having problems with), two classical, and one bass guitar. My son wanted something that combined a number of effects without costing $1000.

What do we like about the Blue Devil? It does exactly what Behringer claims it will do - and more. Last night we recorded an acoustic guitar solo on a four-track (Tascam 424 MkIII) using dbx and moderate EQ'ing. The result was what you would normally expect - a terrific guitar solo accompanied by bias hiss and the usual out of whack highs, mids, and lows on the first run. We ran it through the Blue Devil, first using Compress, then Expand (both on Heaven) and the result was unreal. It sounds fantastic.

I wish there was some way to isolate the effects from the speaker - in other words, tie the Blue Devil in to a recording signal chain like a compressor or reverb, without an active speaker (and without plugging in headphones). If there is a way to do this, I have not figured it out yet.

The materials are durable and attractive. The construction is solid - it has all the signs of a well built piece of equipment. Cosmetically, it is a handsome addition to our studio.

We couldn't be happier - especially after last night's home studio recording session.

The Blue Devil has exceeded our expectations.

I read a great review, went to Millenium Music in Homestead, Florida. They were very helpful and informed. Purchased the floor model (some nicks) for $275.00

I strongly suggest you seek this amp out and comparison shop! This is a very versatile, 65 watt digital amp w/100 watt speaker, 99 factory presets that are all user-editable. 3-band analog equalizer, 2 channels (called "heaven" and hell") includes footswitch. The control panel is very intuitive, Other amps I looked at were the Line6 spider 112, Johnson JT150, and Crate's digital 112. Cd input, headphone jack, midi, closed back. Great blues/rock amplifier. Very premium look/feel (more on that later), especially compared to the Line6, (which only had 4 presets!)and for $100 less. For the money, you cannot find a better amp. If you need more info try http://www.behringer.com

My only real gripe is the power cord (about 5ft), could be longer. I have had no problems in the 2 months I've owned it.


Superb! Buttons and switches have a very premium look and feel. Sturdy cabinet (dark blue), closed back. The contoured front of the cabinet protects the control panel if it should fall forward.

The more I compared, the easier it was to choose this amp. The quality and features for the money simply can't be topped. The final word is COMPARE.
