Hi, this is a 5-watt tube amp with a gain, tone, volume, reverb. For me, it is simple and effective, the rest is done with the fingers ;)

UTILIZATION

Configuration is very simple. No need to book, when a minimum of experience, there is the sound for us and we get a more than decent sound very quickly. For my part, I repeated last night with my group, and I was absolutely not felt the negative side in this little amp ;), I heard as it should without taking over the microphone amplifier and sound was really correct. I put up the volume, the tone a little more than half and reverb for my taste and microphone pickup in the guitar and the sound was more than adequate, even members of groups with which j ' I play was impressed. After that, I have a good guitar, a gibson sg, so his plays can be but I think we know how to set the sound to his liking and stop to take the lead on crap like: sound too rough, not enough attack, lack of precision, etc. .. Between us, the old groups like the Led Zeppelin, AC / DC, The Who, Rolling Sone, etc ... chipottaient not much, which is among others the characteristics of the amp "vintage 5" and I make it clear the word "vintage" is not it? :) Because his fate indeed the stuff that is in but also the fingers and how to strum, however, this is only my point of view ;)

SOUNDS

It is quite suitable to my style of play, you can go from a jazz, blues and rock n roll to perfection. I get very varied sounds, both rock n roll, blues, jazz, variéte, funk, etc ... and the sound is very correct in all these styles. Of course, the metal is not valid with this amp, but it is not the goal, you have understood: bugera vintage 5 there to vintage in ennoncé as you could notice ;) I use a gibson sg with a boost: mxr micro amp, and the sound is even better with the boost for solos in rock n roll fashion or another, however, even without his serious road maintenance. In this amp, I really like everything, chest, grain, reverb, that you can play with the attack of both 5watts lamps, 1 watt to 0.1 watts, and yes this amp ;) is full of surprise and the general quality of this amp. Biensur, there will always quibble but again, the sound comes out of gear but also the fingers, from there, tastes and colors are in ;) nature, in any case, for my part, this is a true revelation, I gained a lot of amp, among others, the marshall class 5 and the sound of us bugera v5 is much more accurate and less fat than the marshall class 5 and I think the the marshall brand more than anything else you pay, however, this is only my point of view, do not get upset, mdrrr :)

OVERALL OPINION

I have the amp for 1 week and I'm completely seduced. I try to share hugely amp before: fender blues junior, orange tiny terror, fender blues deluxe, peavey clasic 30, etc ... The sounds of these amps are both one other, it is only a matter of taste, for my part, I consider the bugera v5 because it is a lightweight amp, 5 watts lamps class A, with which you can play both repeats than either through Mode 5 watts, 1 watts and 0.1 watts, yes ladies and gentlemen, 5 watt lamps, sends his steak ;) because I knew no not allowed and an amp too heavy and powerful is useless when you can not lug around with a car that can not drive, mdrrrr :), but what is on is that I remake that choice without hesitation because this amp at all for me: power, clean sound, finesse and character. Indeed, we can always chipotter but must stop chipotter on details, what do you think? mdrrr :). The price / quality is just excellent, in conclusion, I put 10 out of 10 on this little gem and I want to specify, this is my choice, my opinion does not matter, you made your own review artists because I think we each felt a different artistic, which makes the charm of the music also not :) ciao ;)))
