FAQ53 - BUGERA AMPS, RIFF OF THE DAY, BBW, RANDOM GUY HATING ME 

SHIT I got the address wrong, it's feared.spreadshirt.se not spread shit. Or maybe that wasn't a mistake... Just smart advertising... You decide...

14:51 Bugera opinion/review. You're welcome.

The solution for burping and not burping is to fart.

Ola, the only guy I watch a 5 minute ad for!!

Hey Ola Just wanted to say thank you. The passed two weeks have been a little rough because my wife has been in the hospital due to her illness. Ive been watching/rewatching your previous FAQ videos with her and it’s been cheering her up because of your comedic moments. The last few times I’ve visited her, she has said “hey let’s watch that funny guitar guy”. You’re the best dude. Thanks for cheering her up and getting her to smile. Best regards!

Live stream was awesome!!! Loved every second from beginning till the end! !! Awesome questions by all members!!!! Apart from the live stream, the extra content that members get is superb.... Riff lessons, mix and edited tracks, hesu impulse responses, demonstration videos, and of course, buuuuuuurps.... Its worth every krona (swedish currency )!!!! Ola!!! Once again, thank you very much for the awesomesh livestream!!! You had staropramen beer, i had erikstad!!! I hope this comment cheers you more than ever!!! Even if it sucks, i just want to give the extra umph to be the awesome guy as always!!! Sköl!!!

Bugera amps hold out fine, especially with their infinium tech. Have had mine for many years, still going great.

Du är fan bäst som vanligt, trevlig söndag.

As far as Bugera amps, I bought a Bugera 1990 back in 2010. It came biased from the factory EXTREMELY HOT (like almost double what it was supposed to be), but once I fixed that it sounded killer. I still have it and play it. I take it to practice and gigs. Great amp in my opinion. However, a LOT of people have had bad Bugera amps. I think a lot of it is because since they are so cheap, they tend to be the first tube amps for a lot of people. Once someone drops a couple of grand for a Mesa or Marshall they are more experienced with tube amps and take extra special care of them. But mine is a great amp.

Resident Evil 4 in the monitor :O I didn’t know you like that game Ola

I think the set of 7 strings question meant putting on the heavier 6 strings on a solar, which is unnecessary since .13-.56 6 string sets are a thing for B Standard or Drop A, I use the D'Addario NYXL or XL because the 3rd string is wound, ernie balls and ghs have an unwound 3rd that leads to tuning instability

Two comments - love the riff of the week. Spent a bunch of time learning the Slayer riff, it's a really good technical exercise. Second comment - one week in to being a $5 member and holy shit I can't believe how much stuff you have that's member only. I donate to four or five other RU-vidrs via patreon and for almost all of them it's just either early access or tabs. Big swing. The content you give to members is so much more worth the $5 than what anyone else does. Cheers from Florida.

I guessed you were gonna play Erotomania as the DT riff of the day. It is what I would have played... Really appreciate what you're doing and while I'm not where you are right now I did at one point live, breathe, and eat metal guitar. So much that I with a band released a fellow Swedish death-metal album 10 years ago. It's on youtube too but it's not that interesting. (If you do despite my warning want to check it out... We were called Son of Earth and released on Embrace My Funeral Records) While I'm not where you are with guitar right now, I went into exploring fusion and stuff when we disbanded, I sincere enjoy you taking me back to those days where I practiced metal guitar like it was my one true love. And in some ways it really was, but I think fusion and video-game music is where I'll end up. Thank you Ola

I've had a Bugera V-22 for about 4 years now never had a issue with it, but when I first bought it i changed all the tubes out. nothing was wrong with the Bugera tubes I still have then for spares, I just wanted more gain. Been a great amp, its really loud for 22 watts.

Hey Ola, I have my Bugera 6262 for roughly 3 Years now. He was a good and reliable companion all the time.

That would be a very vibrant combination, that vest and guitar.

Resident Evil 4 ❤

Agreed... as far as an amp head... I want everything in it ( and love the sound) and not need any pedals.

"Riff of the day" request: can you play "You suffer" by Napalm Death?

Hey Ola, rip a dope Cannibal Corpse riff! Thanks you're awesome. -Me

Hey Ola! no question, just wanted to say thanks for the years of great content, I've stolen a lot of your ideas off these videos... Please don't sue me :*

I have a Bugera 6262. Had it since 2011. STILL GOING STRONG. Had the 6L6 power amp tubes swapped for EL34's, and it sounds great. Very stout amplifier.

i got a bugera 6260 from 2012 to 2017 , home session , jam , concert , i never have any probleme with it and he always sounded awesome ,!

Class act. Buddy says he hates you, you tell people to go subscribe to his channel. Mega dope.

Don’t listen to all of these negative bums. I’ve been following your videos for years and i remember your first videos. I can’t remember what I was looking for but I think it was just recording guitars at home and I found you and you completed me. Ha! I get a huge laugh all the time! Keep it up!! Cheers!

For the typical youTube or bedroom guitarist who wants a variety of amplifiers too use i think the Bugera amps are very good for the price. Now, if you plan too have or do have a heavy touring schedule , then i do not know how well they hold up but i believe most of the issues that the early models had has been addressed and fixed. So if i needed an amp like this I would certainly buy one. From all the tests and reviews i have seen they do sound really quite good.

I'm glad you explained the vest. Us Americans were confused AF.

Nice vid Ola! The 7 string strings part made me laugh so bad lol

I can finally stand out with this vest... Thank you oh burp lord.

due to my taste in strings and gauges, i've been using 7 string sets for years. toss the high E string and treat them like a set of 6. this gets me a beefy enough low string and the wound G.

Love the Darkglass coffee mug

Speaking of bugera I own a 6262 and it has held up for years now. I liked it so much that I got rid of my 6505+ and have not lookee back since.

That Darkglass mug is so cool ♥

The way you handle your haters is the best!

Too much light in the video Ola . Love this channel

Riff of the Day and Swedish Word of the Day! Wo!

I saw a Bugera 1960 Infinium on stage with Blackberry Smoke. So I would have to assume they are fairly rugged.

Been using a Bugera 333XL for about 5 years. Playing local bars isn't comparable to touring, but I havn't had any bad experiences with it.

The Bugera trirec Infinium sounds awesome through a MESA 4-12 rectifier cab. I love my Bugera. Cheapest amp I have bought and it sounds awesome.

7 string string set on the 6 string guitar, have it in normal drop tune of some kind, so you then get the tone sound of 4 wound strings. that is what i do.

So I bought a Solar A1.6 and it has become my workhorse. I recently obtained the Washburn Solar equivalent to the A1.6 with fishman fluence moderns. I understand why you want to make other style guitars but damn man, you got it right with that design. If all you did was release that body style, youd have my vote. Fuck the critics.

Hello Ola from Oklahoma USA. I have been using a Bugera 333XL Infinium for a while now, and I love it, it is powerful, sounds awesome, and gets the job done. I love your videos, keep it up. :)

Loving that RE4 is playing on the monitor.

You need to restock the lemon neon mattes!!!!! Said the other day y’all got them back in stock, I jumped online and it was still sold out. I’m just excited and anxious to order it, please hurry and restock!

You're Awesome! Mvh från Småland

Hi Ola. Have been a fan for a while now. Now every Sunday after work my girlfriend and I watch your FAQ videos. She loves it. Keep getting them Waamens.

Ola, you need to dress like a Viking and offer Ola Viking swag haha

Hey Ola! In response to your Bugera question. I just recently purchased a Bugera 333XL Infinium for $250 and I shit you not it sounds almost identical to the Peavey JSX. If you were to ever do a video on cheaper amp heads and getting the best bang for your buck you NEED to put that head in there! Greetings from Richmond, VA.

Yesterdays live stream was amazing! Got a few of my long awaited questions answered and had a blast just hanging out with ya. I'll probably never get to ever meet you in person due to living halfway across the world but hanging watching a live stream is just as good to me :)

His question on 7 string question meant can he buy a 7 string set and put them on a 6 string. Minus the high e string of course. His question is a little redundant Because you can buy heavier gauges made for 6 strings.

I know why Warlokwyatt is such an angry individual, it's those damn strats! It's like playing a baseball bat and make's you angry at the world, he should get a solar!

"Get a job".....😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 dude I feel your pain

Best use for a Wah pedal yet!

Yo, homie! I love all of your videos, especially the dimebag and FAQ ones! I'm kinda curious though, what's your thoughts on the TV show rick and morty?

G'day Ola. Where have you been in Australia (which states) and what do you think of it? Now that the question is out of the way I want to say thank you. I stumbled upon your channel recently and I'm addicted. It makes me very happy to see a hilarious metalhead who's happy to be themselves without all of the elitism. Keep being you. Also, you've inspired me to pick up guitar after not playing for years. I'm getting a cheap one soon and who knows, maybe one day I'll buy a Solar!

Have you checked out Rivers of Nihil? Do you enjoy it when the bass guitar is a huge part of a band's sound?

I haven't had so many good laughs in a while! Hell yeah!

I love what you do man, I can learn a lot and enjoy your sense of humor at the same time!

May get a feared high visibility vest for working on construction sites.

I really enjoy your channel Ola. Don't pay attention to haters. Keep doing what you do...which is awesome. Xoxoxo from Chile

No idea if it got improved, but the valve sockets on the older Bugera amps should have better grip, valves tend to lossen when it gets moved around. A plus is that the Infinium tech makes it really easy and cheap to switch to another set of tubes.

Love resident evil 4 on your monitor! Also great stuff ola!! Was wondering if you could go over your mixing process and how to make your songs go from demo quality to mastered radio quality? Keep it up! Can’t wait to see your next faq!

Pro tip: I do not listen to the genre that I compose in. They it helps inspiration but I feel that's false. Inspiration is derived from curiosity and experimentation. Not from listening to what others have done. I know not everyone will agree but it works for me. And it works well.

Hi Ola, how did you become so comfortable talking to the camera? Do you visualize a person, or people, to help you talk naturally or do you just straight up talk at an inanimate object? Talking to a camera feels super weird for me so I figured there were tricks to doing this. Thanks man, keep up the hard work you're awesome!

You are the best ola!!

I'm going to chime in on the Bugera question. I picked up a Tri-Rec for a solid price ($600 CAD) while my wife and I were in Montreal. Everything was great for the first few days after we got back in Toronto until the output transformer blew up. I called Care Music Group and they had me take the amp to a repair person not far from me. I waited almost 3 weeks with no movement on the repair so I called up Care Music Group again and they had said that it was really odd to be taking so long for the repair. They immediately sent a new head out to me. The rep also told me that I should register the serial number on their website as it would extend the warranty to 10 years. 10 years is a very long time to warranty a product which shows Bugera (or Behringer) has a lot of faith in their products. Tone-wise, it does sound amazing. I did more research and it seems like Bugera had a quality issue when the Infinium technology first rolled out but those issues seem to have become less and less common. With all that said, I may as well ask a question: What distribution channels have you set up to get Solar Guitars in stores, or are you going to stick with a "factory-direct" sales model?

Can you kindly please your set up or a video set up on how to record music using the computer for example? 1. What equipments needed and how to set it up, step by step please? Thank You

Safety vest, not leather vest. Safety... safety vest, very important. Always safety vest, cool band!

Resident Evil 4 on the monitor...NICE!

OK for people who budget and gig what do you think about using receivers as an example RCA receiver surround sound each speaker puts out 50 watts and there are 10 output's ! but it stil sounds amazing ! with multieffects or pedals obviously

Ola you freaking rock!! I got a good laugh out of this video something I needed desperately. Nice to know to are a real down to earth fella.

As a good ol' Norrlänning, I can't get enough of the burps. Louder and more often please.

Warlokwyatt -- the nemesis of Scott Groves in the tonewood debate.

Some guitarists like to use a 7 string set on their 6 string guitars for alternate tunings and/or to have higher string tension. A good example of a band that does this is Wage War. The last time I saw them they used a 7 string set on 6-string Fender Jazzmaster guitars, and tuned down to drop G, with an .80 gauge string on the low G to compensate. It creates an awesome thick low end with a lot of clarity. Check out their song "The River" for an awesome example of this particular tone! Maybe you could do a video on this type of experiment in the future? I bet the Solar 2.6 A would sound AWESOME with a set like that.

Before the 7-strings V, you need to put out a BBW guitar!

Olá Ola, 3 favorite bass player? I do not play guitar and I Will be happy to listening about Bass on your Channel. Long live Brazilian Heavy Metal

Love watching your videos bro. Can you do one with a baritone. And some stuff dropped down to c and b

Hey ola can you do home studio tour video? Showing us what your gear for recording. It looks like you have a simple set up and i like simple

Ola, How do you make good quality recordings in your home? Doesn't having a rectangular room make it hard to get certain frequencies or have you found a work around? Thanks for the awesome videos!

Hi Ola, I’m pooping. I’m in love with my Bugera 333 XL INFINIUM! I’ve had it for a year and a half and it’s not let me down yet! Everything is still stock.

Re: listening to other types of music - when in a rut one time(we all have them) I watched a dvd performance of Loreena McKennit live in Spain. She combines Celtic & other influences and is an amazing singer & musician. The music inspired me to explore different tones, note choices, etc., that I normally wouldn't think of playing... Check out her music!

Love the riff of the day! Keep them coming!

I have a Bugera Trirec from 4 years now, and having gigs with it, and still sounding kickass shit. I mean, I would like to tour with a Peavey Invective and a Randall Satan cause they have all I need in a good amp, but for now I'm really good with that. Also people sometimes cheers me for telling me how good my tone sounds. So, love Bugera 🤗

Hey Ola became a fan month or 2 ago and instantly hooked to your channel quick question what are your top 5 favorite or influential death metal guitarist? Also if you enjoyed BBW’s you’ll enjoy SSBBW have a good one

Hola Hola OLa!!! You speak highly of many wamens in the music industry and I don’t think you’ve mention Destiny Potato! They’ve only got one album out, but it was done perfectly to listen to over and over. Check out Addict from the album Lun. Or whichever, they’re all great.

Hi Ola, I love your channel and I would like to watch your react with the most bizarre and funny music videos on the internet. Cheers from Brazil

Ola, as you're a Nevermore fan, can we see your best attempt at the Godless Endeavour arpeggios, or any Jeff Loomis arpeggio sequence? Love my Solar A1.6etc by the way ;)

Totally loved the live stream, think you awnsered like 6 of my questions, but now the bar is set, and now we need this type of content mutch more often💓

Hi Ola, really digging your FAQs and VLOG stuff! Your Joyo Zombie video got me interested in buying one for home use. Have you had the chance to test the Joyo BantCab cabinet? Any opinions? Keep up the good work and stay awesome!

Can't wait to see you having fun with a talking toilet once again! Please document the moment! 👍

I'm pretty new to your channel but i really enjoy your content and personality, so keep up the good burp .. ehm work ;) greets form germany

That was like a thumbs up while holding a guitar pick

Hi Ola, Great videos man. Love your channel more for the commedy than for the music, and I really like The Haunted and Feared. Cheers from Italy.

Peace Ola! Could you please do a video on how you get your IRs of your cabinets done yourself? That would be awesome. There’s a lack of good videos on the whole process on RU-vid. Please fill it! 😃🤯

Hi Ola, I've seen some of your videos before, but never really paid much attention. Then I've started watching you FAQ's videos and I fell in love with your style, your spontaneity, your silliness, sarcasm, honesty and candor (expecially the censored burps, they make me smile every time). I've recently been under hearth surgery because of a rare syndrome and YOU have made my time at the hospital much more fun, so I just wanted to thank you for what you do, and please keep doing it cause I'm still at the hospital :D Oh btw, Solar guitars are sexy as hell, I might buy one even if I don't really play metal anymore. I know this wasn't a question, but rather a freaking long statement, but hey, what can you do... :D thanks again. Cheers from Italy, hope the best for you.

Admittedly, I'd probably avoid the Bugeras. They're less than reliable IME and the autobias thing they have is failure prone (which can take out transformers too).

Soon, soon we'll have our V or E type with a floyd rose!

Hi Ola, I wanted to ask you if you can show us or make a short demo of the A1.6 at the gates signature model. Thank you and keep making awesome music, guitars and videos !

Love the videos and your doing great with your channel. With the people complaining about the reverse head stocks. Have you thought of putting the lefty necks on the right hands and the righty on the left handed one to please them?

Hello Mr. OLA! I wanted to ask. Have you thought about making a video or a small but detailed course on metal production? Record + processing + mastering. Or the creation and processing of a track or a separate part from the beginning to the mastering stage. I think the video will be very popular. Thank you.
