V22 INFINIUM 22-Watt 2-Channel Tube Combo 

Was just thinking that!

I went to high school with him. He turned me on to guitars.

Many black dudes are very chilled. Rasta knows his 🎸 stuff too.

Well, actually Matchless Chieftain CH-212 looks identical to Bugera V22 and you'd save yourself a few grand without compromising the sound.

Why tweak perfection? 🤔

@@Phoenix_cataclysm_in_2040 Exactly. I still love this amp

Teddy White yeah i think so, there is a lot of tonal options

Buy a different amp.

A cheaper way would be to make a bigger back panel 🙂

They make a G-5 Head (small & lightweight) with a FX send/receive. Awesome little tube amp. Blues On.

Hit the gym bro! ;)

@@hutchfromba doesn't this one have an fx loop too?

Behringer also ;)

love the talking

The V22 INFINIUM Amps are able to run on 110V or 220V, depending on the fuse you have set in the compartment near the IEC receptacle. After switching out the fuse with the correct value for 220V operation (630mA) and using a 220V IEC Cable you should able to use the V22 INFINIUM with standard 220V outlets.

BEHRINGER wait is this the official behringer account? Do you just go around watching the competition's videos and helping clients?

If you check out the Behringer website, you'll see their amps use Bugera speakers and the guy that does the demo video is the same one that did this video. There's some kind of partnership there, if not the same parent company.

drepenaproject I believe yes. All Bugeras with Infinium technology do it.

Dalton Heitmann it's basically a half power switch for when you're playing at home

LpMusicify thanks

+Dalton Heitmann pentodes are hotter

The answer is definitely yes lol

Two 'odes'

+animefan 69 Mostly Vox flavoured. I had a V5 which was just like a Vox AC4.

It's a fender amp clone, I think the bass man but not sure,.. There is a mid boost that makes it sound like a Marshall, but it's a fun thing to have.

johno doh Err NO! Did you not read my response? It's based around a VOX AC15! The V55 is more like a Fender! The V5 a Vox AC4!

***** Oops sorry, I cant really hear much of a difference on v55 and v22. Aside the el34/84 and the wattage are identical I think.

johno doh It's ok. I can. They don't sound the same on clean channel, OD channel, has less difference. Different circuits. I own a V55HD and I used to own a V5. They did NOT sound the same, as smaller/bigger versions of the same amp. Definitely voiced differently.

I agree that a certain level of technical abilities come in handy from time to time as a guitar player, but I wouldn't call it a necessity. After all, there always are professionals who could do the job for you. When it comes to things like a set up for your guitar there aren't many dangers and in my opinion pretty much everyone should give it a go first before taking it to the shop everytime, but in case of biasing a tube amp I would strongly reccomend against trying it yourself, at least if you have no idea what you're actually doing. Some amps don't really have obvious probe points or ones that are quite difficult to reach and in most cases you have to work with an entirely exposed circuitboard in order to do so. Without a healthy amount of knowledge and experience with stuff like this, it can be very dangerous to temper with the inner workings of a tube amp since there are capacitors on the inside, which can hold a deadly amount of charge, even when the amp is unplugged. Touch the wrong thing and your own amplifier might kill you. When you try to set up your guitar, the worst thing that could happen is that you screw it up a little and need a professional to get it right again. When you try to bias your tube amp yourself, the worst that could happen is you being killed, so auto-biasing tube amps might have a reason to exist. Beside it being much easier and faster which could be a big help if a tube decides to die 15 minutes before a gig.

Jason Perry why is self biasing bad? How does it cause probs? Honest question

@@juanvaldez5422 I'm not going to be the best guy to give you a technical description, but it comes down to the fact that "auto-biasing" is not an automatic version of amps that require actual biasing when switching tubes. It's a marketing name for cathode-biasing. Many folks will tell you that tone suffers and in some cases when switching tubes you might still need to verify the biasing and change the value of a resistor if the measurement is too far out. You should Google fixed vs cathode biasing for a better explanation.

@@PerryCodes I think you've created a problem where was none. Telling people to smarten up and do autobiasing themselves invites moral responsibility if something goes wrong (electric shock and perhaps death), and for what? So you can save a few quid by not going to a proper amp specialist? I've replaced all valves on my Bugera V22, it done whatever job it meant to do with its autobiasing system and it sounds as it ought to - great. Just give it a thought that there were smart people who created these amps, and who knew exactly what they were doing at a fraction of price of such lookalikes as Matchless and Bad Cat etc. Makes you think what those makers charge people massive money for as I haven't noticed better quality sound coming out of those amps.

@@Phoenix_cataclysm_in_2040 If you can’t follow simple safety instructions on draining a cap and using a probe, then I guess you fall into the group that finds that “too complicated.” Personally, I find it mind-numbingly simple. Does that make me smarter than you? Probably not, but yes... I will have a few more “quid” in my pocket at the end of the day.

Had mine for 5 yrs. No issues at all. I love this amp. I favor it over my blues jr. Just a great amp.

Its damn near impossible to take the cage off around the tubes when they blow. Had to basically break the protective cage because the 2 screws on the inner portion are inaccessible

@@erikbrzoska Then you have to take the chassis out.

That's a big fat NO. Not a chance.

@@PerryCodes It probably does.... witha Diezel Vh4 pre :D

theres a tube cage in the way. they are there

there is a comparison vid... It actually sounds better than the Celestion and Weber speakers they use in the shootout. You can find it on youtube ...

@@SimpleAndyRock Thank you. I ended up buying the Marshall orian 20 watt.

@@liketodriverealyfast Never used the Marshall, but I love that bugera... Use a kemper since many years over amps though... But id say give the bugera a shot if you get a chance. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IENIfYkIlF0.html Here is that amp against the MArshall.

how lol you get 22w of all valve sound for a good price

name another amp that can do the same

Easy, pick up a vintage tube organ from your local facebook marketplace or craigslist for free or 10 bucks, pull out the pushpull dual 6v6 amp with 12ax7 preamp section, change a couple of values, maybe install a bias adjustment circuit to make it grid-biased for more wattage, find an old 12 inch speaker cabinet for 70 bucks, get a weber or some speaker that you want for 120 or so bucks, 10 bucks for some mounting hardware and you got an amp that will smoke this one for same or cheaper, with NOS tubes and parts and will look way cooler.

That would be a pretty good project idea if you were already a guitar enthusiast, but for someone who is just starting out on guitar, and is getting their first tube amp, the Bugera fulfills that role just fine.

are you Wayne Famous' son? He's awesome! Loved the Producers in the eighties. How is he doing? btw, i have a bugera v5 infinium . got it from sweetwater for 200. put a nos mullard 12au7 in it. not loud with this tube, but for clean jazz, oh man, real nice. needs to be mic"d though.
