  • Clean and Dirty with more tone than other options below 500!
We had a Fender Blues Deluxe Reissue, but we also live in an apartment building. Our neighbors weren't fans of that 40w Class A output. They don't appreciate good tube tone I suppose! We also have an Orange Micro Terror that works for headphone playing, but isn't loud enough with clean tone, and (again) gets too loud when you crank the gain... it's kind of a one-trick pony for crunchy classic rock... so we bought the Bugera G5! The G5 solves the loudness issue (thanks to its built in power attenuator with 5w, 1w, and 0.1w settings), without sacrificing (much) tone as compared to the Fender amp 3-4 times its price. Compared to anything else reasonably similar in cost, STOP THINKING ABOUT IT. Buy it. It has clean clean tone that will get proper classic rock tube crunch using an Dunlop/Echoplex EP101. It has reverb. It has an effects loop. It has 2 channels. It has EQ for the high gain channel, and a fun control to go between the US/UK presence 'feel'. It also comes with a sturdy stomp box foot switch for channel switching and reverb on/off (would have liked a 1/4" jack on the stomp box to use a shorter cable/replace worn cable without soldering, but again - that it comes with a foot switch at all is great at this price point). Things that remain to be seen: Tube life - the 'Infinium Technology' seems like it's just an auto-bias and some marketing bollocks, but it's a nice feature down the road for tube replacement without a tech doing it. Tube fixtures - the tube socket is attached to the circuit board... I'd be gentle when pulling old tubes or inserting new ones. Power socket isn't snug with the included AC plug, and flexes with a plug in the socket. Not an issue if you're an at home player like me, but it's not as solid a fixture on the back of the amp as other electronics I own. For now, no issues with any of these things, but things to consider. It's a hand-wired tube amp for about 200ish and it sounds and looks the part. Pair it with a responsive speaker cab and you can keep up with a drum kit at moderate volumes. It sounds wonderful through an Orange PPC112 1x12! Great for jazz and classic rock right out of the box, for serious metal add a fuzz pedal. ... show more

  • So close…but DISTORTION
I had tried a V5 and really liked the sound overall, but it’s way too big and heavy as I’m mostly planning to use it w/o speaker via sound board. So I bought the G5 with high hopes. It would be worth the price, size and weight for all the functions, which are stellar. BUT (a) is not really a tube amp, just tube preamp, they should disclose that! I hate misleading advertising. BUT that’s not the biggest issue: (b) The overdrive channel is SO overdriven that the entire range i would want to use is with the gain set between 0 and maybe 0.4. That allows no adjustability in the fly as tiny movements result in huge changes in volume. It’s operating range is basically between really distorted and screaming, with no usable crunch or touch sensitivity. I loved the idea of switching between the channels with volume set independently to the same level. But the clean channel has no gain, so no option for a little crunch, and the dirty is WAAAY too dirty. If it weren’t for the size and weight i would try modding with a different gain pot or pot + resistor but it’s too much trouble and I don’t prefer modding brand new gear out of the box. Back it goes :(. I’m going to try the T5 which is the head of a V5 + separate bass/treb (vs “tone”), also small, light, and $100 cheaper. Too bad though, i really had high hopes, and just a small change in the design that would cost nothing would make a huge difference in playability and flexibility. Or, they should at least change the description to say “distortion - we REALLY mean it!” And by the way, also say “FET output stage”. ... show more

  • Poor Quality & Expensive
I owned and used this GH5 Infinium amp in my studio for a few years. The clean channel only has a single tone control (knob) so you have to have a really great guitar with tone controls to make the clean channel sound good. The reverb is modeled and sounds VERY modeled, it's virtually useless. The drive channel is OK but it takes a lot of work to get a nice sound. My G5 lasted a few years, though it wasn't used much, and one day it died. I took it to my amp tech, who worked for Fender years ago & is a real expert, and he said it was all a single printed circuit board that couldn't be fixed, it couldn't even be tested. For only a head, this thing is pretty expensive after you buy a cabinet with a good 12" speaker. You can buy a used Blues Jr for less at places like GC and you'll have a lot better amp with real quality sound. ... show more
