that's an awesome sounding amp! Imo the JCM900 is a great amp and deserves a better reputation than it has. For some reason a lot of Marshall purists seem to hate them but i love them. i have a modded 50 watt head that was my main amp until I got an Engl Savage 120 MKII last year. Love the riffage btw!

Super cool comparison, thanks Euge :). I used some Behringer products over time.

@whoobibi 7 месяцев назад

I have both the 1990 and the 6262. I actually like the Crunch channel on the 6262 better, especially with the bright switch on. Bright Marshall crunch like an old modified Plexi. And of course the lead channel on a 6262, being based on the 5150 II, is a monster.

@user-xk9zw5hd4f 7 месяцев назад

Bugera stuff is always really solid, the Bugera tri rec is a diamond in the rough, it has all the magic of a mesa rectifier but way better sounding

@MetalZoned 2 года назад

Some Gary Moore there at the end, nice one! Impressed with this Bugera to be honest. It's about 90% there. I agree about it being metallic, but still pretty good. You should try a shootout between that and the Mooer UK Gold 900 Micro Preamp that is supposed to be a JCM900 in a micro pedal.

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

@robbah9939 2 года назад

Bugeras are great value for the money! The bad reputation is mostly the older pre-infinium. I got 2 of them. I love them, never had any problems and the older one is 6 years old and gigged with a lot. The new one is a 1960 that I bought after your review. The tube pulling and mixing is awesome. You can get 1960,1990 & 6262 for the price of one marshall. Just something to consider.

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

@Nightwinflyer Год назад

I agree, I bought a 1960 and it is my workhorse studio amp. Rock solid for 2 years and going strong.

@countzero5150 Год назад

One of the issues I've come across with the pre infinium amps is that the biasing information in their manuals was completely wrong. At best they will sound bad, at worst they'll blow up. I biased one of the 6260s for one of my friends who simply used the test point on the chassis and set it according to the manual. I measured the plate voltage and used an octal bias probe and his dissipation was WAAAAAY over 70% probably close to 100%. The fact that he played it like that for weeks and it didn't burst into flames is a miracle. If they were biasing them like that from the factory... then yeah, it would be more shocking if they DIDN'T catch fire. The important takeaway is if you buy a pre infinium model check the bias before you do anything. It's probably far hotter than it should be.

@Nightwinflyer Год назад

@@countzero5150 Mine is the Infinium. Rock solid amp. I don't know if you can even find the pre-infinium ones.

@countzero5150 Год назад

@@Nightwinflyer there's still a lot of pre infinium models floating around. I see a lot of them getting incorrectly listed as infinium because it's a buzz word with respect to bugera. The dead giveaway is if it has blue pilot lights it's pre infinium, amber and it's infinium.

@OgamiItto70 2 года назад

I'm with you on that reverb thing. I always hate reverb on amps. It always sounds fake to me. Sometimes (but not very often) it'll sound acceptable on clean sounds if I don't dial in too much. I'd *_much_* rather have a good digital reverb pedal in the effects loop. That gives me options so I'm not stuck with the sound that was decided on by some committee of electronics engineers at the amp factory. As to Bugera reliability, I've never owned or even played one, but from what I've seen here and there on forums and message boards they're either total crap or absolute tanks. And the simpler models like the 1990 and 1960 are more likely to be tanks than crap. Also, long-time users usually like the Infinium feature, saying that it really does extend power amp tube life by quite a bit. Of course, it's also just one more thing to go wrong...

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

Exactly 👌😎.

@oneecchiboi5412 2 года назад

Hi Euge! Quick question for you, when you're doing the song/noodling, are you hearing your playback only through your studio monitors? or a cab or something as well?

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

Always through studio monitors and sometimes also from the cab 👌.

@paulkielt9301 2 года назад

My brother's Marshall JCM900 I tried sounded the best with KT88 power tubes... but that's my own taste! To not overload the transformers I used only two of them istead of four. Otherwise, there are no clipping diodes inside the JCM900 but it has many OP-Amps. So I guess, the Bugera is constructed the same. That's why I still prefer the JCM800 much more.

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

@Greg-rd8qr 2 года назад

Damn. That sucks. I only had this for a few days so can’t say much about the reliability 😎.

@SixStringViolence 2 года назад

You forgot to mention the pentode/triode switch on the back of the amp. Similar to the high/low switch on the JCM 900. In pentode mode you have the full 120 watts and all the headroom. In triode mode it's 60 watts and you reach much sooner tube saturation which thickens the sound and shifts it more to the mid-range. The manual wrongly says 100 and 50 watts, but since it is a 120 watts amp, I assume that it is 120 and 60.

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

I did? Thanks for mentioning 🤟🙏😎.

@relentlessvomit4361 2 года назад

Hello Euge! Do you happen to have a JCM900 SL-X? I Really like your reviews on Marshall’s, was wondering if you could shoot out a 900 SL-X vs a 800 or the TSL or maybe give your thoughts on the SL-X? There’s one in my area and I’m debating between that and a TSL. Thanks!

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

Nope but I’ve played with one a few times. It’s basically a 800 2203 with an extra pre-amp tube 🤟.

@eric_sdny 2 года назад

“Slow Dancing in a Burning Room” on a Bugera was not on my bingo card! 🤣🤣🤣 Really surprised at how the amp sounds compared to the Marshalls. I’d be terrified to open it up and see how well it’s constructed though.

@lemmy8ob 2 года назад

One thing my go-to amp tech says about Marshall heads is that they are very overbuilt, always have been...they can take a lot of abuse before they fail & stop working. It applies to the overall design, choice/tolerance of components, quality of construction, etc. Other makers may have some similar design elements, but they usually cut costs & quality is not the same. One thing I also hear is that Mesa amps are so complex, they are much harder to debug & fix than a Marshall...yes they are good & have tons of features, but there is a trade-off.

@EugeValovirta230V 2 года назад

Yeah it’s hard to beat a good ol’ Marshall. Sound - and quality wise 💪😎.

Euge, I've got a DSL100, and I can't get the tones I think it should be capable of. A friend of mine suggested using a load box to be able to crank it at lower volumes. I don't have any kind of computer stuff, I'm strictly talking about playing it in the room. Do you ever use something like a captor x or an OX box, and if so, what is your recommendation for someone just wanting to experiment with attenuation? Thank you for what you do.

@@EugeValovirta230V Thanks, man. I ended up getting a PS1 because it's inexpensive. It makes a huge difference in the DSL100 being able to crank the master. With the Invective, where all the balls seem to be at the top end of the channel volume, it's not really needed (for what I do, anyway). I did notice it sucked some of the low end out of both amps, and I had to bump up the resonance to get it back to what I like. In any event, thank you for the suggestion, and for what you do.

The Iconic is $999. They are both made in China. The 6262 is supposed to be a poor man's 6505+. Even the Peavey 6505+ is now made in China. Might as well go with the Bugera and save some money.
