The best Bogner Guitar Combo Amplifiers reviews

The reviews Audiofanzine members found the most helpful.
  • « Black Standard »

    This is the standard production Duende from Bogner. This one has black tolex covering with a salt and pepper grille cloth baffle. This amp looks very good and would look good sitting on the floor as a practice amp or using the speaker out and throwing it up on top of a 4x12 cabinet. This amp is such an awesome tone monster. The tone from this amp is one of the best and most articulate amps that I have ever seen or heard. The cleans are chimey and alone make this amp worth owning. Then you get to the distortion channel and that is where this amp really reigns. The distortion is in the British flavor of tonal characteristics but has its own thing going. It i distinctively a Bogner tone and you can feel and hear it in the harmonics but this amps takes what Marshall was never able to do and devour it. Bogner DUENDE 1 x 10" 12-watt Tube Combo Amplifier Features: 12W 1x10" combo Two 6V6 tubes 5AR4 tube rectifier Five 12AX7 preamp tubes Two channels that can be combined or used separately, footswitchable Reverb with independent level controls for each channel, Accutronics Spring large tank Tremolo with speed and depth (pull on) controls, footswitchable Effects loop tube, buffered send/return Compensated recording output Power amp line output Master EQ section: Air (Treble), Body (Bass) controls shared with Channel 1 and 2 Channel 1: Gain (Pull Bright), Treble, Bass, Volume and shared Master EQ controls Channel 2: Gain (Pull Gain) , Volume and shared Master EQ controls UTILIZATION Details Type Tube Number of Channels 2 Power 12W Speakers 1 x 10 Eminence Effects Reverb EQ Air, Body No Amp Modeling Preamp Tubes 5 x 12AX7, 1 x 5Y3 Power Tubes 2 x 6V6 Inputs 1 x Instrument Outputs 1 x Speaker (8 ohms), 1 x Line Out Footswitch I/O Effects Loop Height 16.25" Width 20.88" Depth 10" Weight 40 lbs. SOUNDS This is premium tone at a premium cost. The amp is a bit expensive for a lot of people but one who have played a Bogner you will immediately hear and feel what you have been missing. This amp sounds phenomenal with any guitar in any style pickup. I feel that this amp elevates you playing to a point of coming into you own. It basically takes what you are as a player and enhances everything that you do. The cleans are nice and sweet like an old Fender amp from the 50's or 60's. The distortion channel is where this thing lives. The overdrive is full and warm with a touch are dark characteristics. The tone is alive to say the least. The best way to describe how you feel when playing this amp is, exuberant! OVERALL OPINION This is a fantastic amp at a fantastic price. At new these amps come in at around $2400, which isn't bad for a Bogner amp that is multiple channels that can act as a combo amp or small enough to fit on top of a 4x12, 2x12, or 1x12 speaker cabinet. The XTC range from $3800- $4200. Granted that is the flagship amplifier for Bogner. I would recommend this amp to anyone who needs a solid amp and are just getting into the boutique amp world. You may never play anything else after this amp though.

  • « Killer amp! »

    This amp like all Bogners are build with high quality standards and high tonal standards. This amp has two channels that produces a great American clean tone and a good British high gain tone. You can get this thing to sweeten up with chimy chords or single note playing all the way up to sizzling high gain lead lines and riffing. I am a huge fan of all things Bogner and this amp while not one of the most popular amps like the TJ, Shiva, or XTC; this amp still has the familiar Bogner tone with a couple features tailored towards the blues player or classic American Fender amp player. Bogner Custom Shop Duende Seco Mojado 1x12"/2x8" Tube Amplifier Features: 1x12" speaker, front-mounted; 2x8" speakers, side-mounted Two 6V6 power tubes in each 15-watt power section 5Y3 (12W) or 5AR4 (15/30W) tube rectifier Five 12AX7 preamp tubes Two channels that can be combined or used separately (footswitchable) Reverb with independant level controls for each channel (Accutronics spring large tank) Tremolo with speed and depth (pull on) controls, footswitchable Tube effects loop with buffered send/return Compensated recording output Power amp line output Master EQ section: Air (treble), Body (bass) controls shared with Channel 1 and 2 Channel 1: Gain (pull Bright), Treble, Bass, Volume and shared Master EQ controls Channel 2: Gain (pull Gain) , Volume and shared Master EQ controls UTILIZATION Details Type Tube Number of Channels 2 Power 2 x 15W Speakers 1 x 12" Celestion G12H, 2 x 8" Greenback 25 Effects Reverb EQ Air, Body No Amp Modeling Preamp Tubes 5 x 12AX7, 1 x 5AR4 Power Tubes 2 x 6V6 Inputs 1 x Instrument Outputs 2 x Speaker (8 ohms), 1 x Aux, 1 x Line Out Footswitch I/O Effects Loop Height 20.75" Width 10.5" Depth 27.38" Weight 64 lbs. SOUNDS This is an interesting amp to say the least. It is basically two amps in one cabinet. Or you can blend the two channels for just an endless amount of tonal tweaking ability. Combine that with the tremelo feature and the reverb and you got one hot double amp. The cleans are remarkable and sit real nicely with a good Fender Tele or Stratocaster. However, Bogner amps are known for there high gain and sweet rich distortion. I love the familiar Bogner distortion tone because it is very forgiving and instant gratification. This is an amp that you would play all day with because the tone is that good. OVERALL OPINION I would recommend this amp to anyone who needs a great sounding amp and needs a few American features like reverb and tremelo but the ability to get high gain cranking out of the speakers. This amp is not for the casual consumer with a small budget on tone. At new these amps come in at around $3300, which is a big tag for a small combo amp. If it were me I would save up a little more money or for the same price buy a used Bogner 20th Anniversary XTC. To me that is the amp that this kind of money would go to. It has a right features and high gain tone and cleans that I'm looking for.

  • « Very interesting features »

    The Bogner Mephisto is a very unique offering from the brand. The amp is essentialy a 2-in-1 sort of deal. You get two separate pre/poweramp configurations that Bogner claims to cover the essential 50's american and 60's british sounds. On one side you get the american flavor of ECC83's in the preamp and 6v6's running the output. On the other side, 12ax7s' couple with el84's to get classic british gain sounds. You are able to not only run the amps independently but also are given the option to combine them to create a 12,18, or 20 watt selection. The amp has no onboard reverb and no loop but makes up for this with a foot switchable power attenuator. The aesthetics of the Mephisto are one-of-a kind and quite striking. UTILIZATION The options presented with this combo are very interesting. You can combine the amps in different configurations to yield common and no-so-common results. The inclusion of a foot switchable attenuator adds to the versatility, allowing you to control volumes and drive the power sections either separately both together. The 3 way bright switch on the british preamp is very handy for using a large arsenal of guitars. SOUNDS I played through the Bogner Mephisto with a Gibson Tweedy SG and a early 90's Les Paul studio in alpine white. I ran a strymon bluesky and el capistan out front. The amp covers alot of ground and manages to accurately depict both british and classic american stylings. Cleans sounded full bodied and full of chime. With the aid of the bluesky reverberator, I was able to get very beautiful soundscapes with a subtle shimmer. The gain sounds are very classic sounding and lead lines are very fluid with the amp. Combining the amps together yielded something not so surprisingly pleasant. Bogner outdid himself with this amp. OVERALL OPINION I feel that the Bogner Mephisto is a producer's dream. You get fender and vox flavors in one package and it's the real deal. To the average consumer, the Mephisto is simply too expensive, and will likely not be considered as a viable amplifier solution. There really is no competition to speak of. The options you're given are nearly exclusive to this amp. Did I mention it looks beautiful?

  • « Full of mojo »

    The goldfinger is a 2 channel, 6v6 based monster. The amp features both a pre and post effects loops, onboard reverb, pre/post bright switches for the loud 69 channel, and a foot switchable boost. The tolex is exclusive to bogner and features a beautiful swirled pattern in black. UTILIZATION It is hard to setup the goldfinger for anything but a great tone. The tone controls are very responsive and the Gain EQ knob allows you to sweep between brittle vintage flavors and aggressive modern gain sounds. The foot switchable boost allows the amp to function essentially as a three channel amp. SOUNDS played through a 90's Gibson Les Paul Standard. No pedals. The clean sounds from the Alpha channel are by far the best I've heard in a Bogner amplifier. The onboard reverb is as gorgeous as they come and I felt inclined to leave it engaged almost permanently. The Omega channel can be switched between both Loud 69 mode and 80's mode, both are capable of a variety of sounds but with subtle differences. Using the Gain EQ knob I was able to coax high gain sounds out of the amp the were very similar to the Bogner ecstasy's red channel. Adjusting it for a darker , smoother tone and rolling back the gain slightly allowed for tones that I felt were superior to the Ecstasy's legendary blue channel. OVERALL OPINION The Bogner Goldfinger strongly impressed me. The sounds available and the feature set are only rivaled currently by the Mesa Boogie Royal Atlantic. With cleans superior to the Metropolis and Shiva models, and gain that could easily compare to the venerable 101b-- The Goldfinger is , aside from metal styles (Uberschall territory), dominating the Bogner line up for versatility and value for money. I highly recommend trying it out if you get the chance.

  • iamqman's review

    Bogner has to be one of the best amplifier companies in the world. They continue to create the best amps for pop, country, rock, and metal. There amps have a certain unique tone that is distinct within pretty much all their amplifiers. This amp is just like the the rest...amazing. This amp is the Shiva with reverb. It is a little bit more than the amp without reverb so either you want to pay extra for it or you get the alternative. One of the best amplifiers ever to have been created. Reinhold is a genius when it come to getting amplifiers to give you that immediate sound gratification. His amps just sounds so good when you get these some juice and gain and will keep you playing for hours. The Shiva head is probably Bogner's closest voiced amp to a classic Marshall tone. Most of his amp have a distinct Bogner tone and very familiar British flavor to them but most of them have their own characteristics to them. Bogner Shiva 1 x 12" 2-channel Tube Guitar Amp Combo with Reverb Features: * 1 x 12" closed-ported combo * Footswitchable 2-channel all-tube design * Footswitchable boost, variable on channel 2 * Tube-buffered series effects loop * Channel 1: Bass, Treble, and Volume controls, Bright switch * Channel 2: Bass, Middle, Treble, Gain, and Volume controls, Bright switch * Global Master Volume and Presence controls * Functions on footswitch: Channel switch, Boost, and Reverb * 80-watt EL34 power amp section * Reverb with independent reverb level controls for each channel UTILIZATION Details This amp has an exceptional clean channel. The cleans are very robust and chimey. The cleans alone are enough to buy this amp. But the best part about the amp is the distortion grind. The distortion is very thick and huge sounding. It has a nice thump in the low end and a sweet midrange that will fit in most if not all music. Maybe not death metal or anything but this amp can cover a lot of ground. Type Tube Number of Channels 2 Power 80W Speakers 1 x 12" No Effects Reverb EQ Treble, Middle, Bass No Amp Modeling Preamp Tubes 4 x 12AX7 Power Tubes 2x EL34 Inputs 1 x Instrument Outputs 2 x 1/4" Speaker Outs Footswitch I/O Effects Loop Height 23" Width 24.25" Depth 10.5" Weight 68 lbs. SOUNDS This amp has an exceptional clean channel. The cleans are very robust and chimey. The cleans alone are enough to buy this amp. But the best part about the amp is the distortion grind. The distortion is very thick and huge sounding. It has a nice thump in the low end and a sweet midrange that will fit in most if not all music. Maybe not death metal or anything but this amp can cover a lot of ground. I love the tone of this amp with a nice Gibson Les Paul or a Fender Superstrat. Something with a humbucker pickup installed. This amp is a beats when you get the high gain cranking. The gain is organic and fat sounding. The tone is warm and dark with a nice bump in the low midrange. OVERALL OPINION The Bogner Shivas are a great rock amp and a nice introduction to the higher gain custom amps from Bogner. At new these amps come in at around $2600. These are a bit high in price for a lot of people and understandable, but if you ever get a chance to plug into one of these amps you'll immediately know something you have been playing is missing. I would recommned this amp to anyone who can get a good deal on it. They are kind of expensie but the tone is worth it. You may think about getting the new 20th anniversary version as that one has better components and sounds a little bit better than this version.

    This is the same amp as the 12 in speaker version but just in a 10 inch speaker combo. You have the same great features and tone. However, the tone will change only slightly in the bottom end being just a touch tighter. Same cool tolex covering and everything else. This is an interesting amp. It is a no frills no bells and whistles amp from Bogner. It has basically two control knobs on the amp...a tone knob and a volume knob. We have seen many amps like this from almost every manufacturer. These little small watt practice amps that you can crank to get the overdrive and keep it at reasonable volumes and wattage cut switches. This amp also features a 4 way toggle switch on the back that changes the voicing or grind of the amp. It goes to gain controls and a 4-position rotary switch for dialing in different amp voicings. Another great feature of this amp is the 12 watt to 4 watt switch for even lower volume playing. This is great for bedroom or apartment playing where noise can be an issue. UTILIZATION Bogner New Yorker 1x10 Tube Guitar Combo Amp Features: 12 Watts Switchable to a 4-Watt mode 2 x 6V6 power tubes Gain Volume 4-way rotary switch for clean, crunch or high gain tones Class A circuitry 3-way ON/STANDBY/OFF toggle Aluminum chassis Celestion 10" G12H-30 8 ohm speaker Black comet custom vinyl finish Handcrafted in the USA SOUNDS The tone is very good in this amp. The distortion is not a high gain distortion of a Shiva or XTC but it gets a nice smooth saturation. The clean is sparkly but not as good as the Duende or the Shiva cleans. Over all the tone of this amp is decent but nothing to remarkable like other Bogner amps. The idea for this type of amp isn't so much of an end all be all tone but more on the priority of compact and practicing situations. It sounds great with just about any guitar you throw at it. I like most of Bogner's amps with a nice Gibson Les Paul or another humbucker pickup style guitar. OVERALL OPINION There is a cool tolex covering on these amps. It is a black comet custom vinyl covering that has a nice swirl to it. At new these amps come in at around $1400. A little pricey for a small practice amp, but the tone is a lot better that an amp with the same type of features. I would recommend this amp to anyone who needs a solid practice amp and doesn't need a tone of wattage or volume. If you are used to the tone of Bogner amps then this amp will fit nicely in your catalog.

SOUNDS This is premium tone at a premium cost. The amp is a bit expensive for a lot of people but one who have played a Bogner you will immediately hear and feel what you have been missing. This amp sounds phenomenal with any guitar in any style pickup. I feel that this amp elevates you playing to a point of coming into you own. It basically takes what you are as a player and enhances everything that you do. The cleans are nice and sweet like an old Fender amp from the 50's or 60's. The distortion channel is where this thing lives. The overdrive is full and warm with a touch are dark characteristics. The tone is alive to say the least. The best way to describe how you feel when playing this amp is, exuberant! OVERALL OPINION This is a fantastic amp at a fantastic price. at new these amps come in at around $2400, which isn't bad for a Bogner amp that is multiple channels. The XTC range from $3800- $4200. Granted that is the flagship amplifier for Bogner. I would recommend this amp to anyone who needs a solid amp and are just getting into the boutique amp world. You may never play anything else after this amp though.
