MGR/Billy « Behringer Ultrabass BXL3000 »
Published on 01/08/11 at 15:00This is Behringer's better bass combo amp. 300 watts pumps into the Bugera series speaker. This amp can tilt back to give you more control over where your sound is headed.
The knobs are L-R: Gain 1 Gain 2, Shape, Level, 7-band EQ, a compressor, Ultrabass knob, headphone out and power.
I was in dire need of an amp, low on funds and out of town. That is what led me to the Behringer, a name I am not normally fond of.
$225 was the price. I played it for a gig, about a week or so of practice then returned it. I was not completely unsatisfied.
It got me through the gig! I felt I couldn't dial in 'my sound' It was lacking somewhere in the upper mid section, but hey it worked.
It is portable. The compressor is more user friendly than some. The Ultrabass is kind of useless. It will muddy up your sound.
Other note worthy features: DI out, Effects Loop and a MP3 player input.
I feared the reliability of it and that is why I returned it. Word on the street is Behringer has a very generous return policy if your product fails.
The amp worked great for the week and half I owned it, but once again people describe these as ticking time bombs. Sorry I can't really comment much more on it's quality.
It worked well for the short time I had it.
A user and budget friendly amplifier. If you can afford a better amp I would, but the Behringer will get the job done as long as it is taken care of.
