Toured with mine for 6 weeks. Did 29 shows. Was used twice every show. Other band used it too. Never broke down. This is a great amp for sure....

[@darko240sx]

When I use to run these . I used a 10band eq in the FX loop . Drop the 8k and 16k highs . Makes a major difference .

[@Justintwoguys123]

What do you have the rest of the eq pedal like ?

[@smeemusic]

Lmao that intro tho. My wife wonders why I watch gear videos all the time… dude, it’s real entertainment as well as knowledge. I wish my high school teachers were so captivating. Lolol

[@belligerentamateur]

I do what I can!

[@rocknroll2199]

Great videos. A friend recently bought a new 6262 inf and when he took it out of standby it immediately blew the main fuse on the back. We checked everything and put another fuse in it and same thing. He had an 8 ohm cab in the corner and we hooked it up and when I slid the ohm slide switch to 8 ohms it hung up, didn't feel right, so we cycled the ohm switch on the back of the unit a bunch and the amp now works great.

[@chancellorparamore3603]

I bought this one off of Kyle. It’s monstrous. I have owned 3 5150’s and a 6505 and it’s basically the same thing in a sense for sure. Especially with its hi gain channel. Basically a mimic of the 6,6,6 tone dialed in as well. Also I don’t use a boost. Although it wouldn’t be bad with it. Just my preference. Love this amp.

[@JB-dn9wv]

Congrats!! I'll buy it if you ever wanna get rid of it.

[@bedrockhead]

I just acquired a 6260 recently. I'd say as is it's 80 percent the 5150 tone. Of course no resonance control is a big missing factor, but it's still doing the job. Being an OG 5150 nut but not willing to shell out 1500 bones, this will work. Your 6262 sounds killer.

[@JB-dn9wv]

I've owned both the 6260 and 6262. I use my 6262 more than my 6505+. I have a V30 cab but I like how it sounds with Bugera/Behringer speakers better. 🤷‍♂️

[@suffersystemstudios]

I now have the Bugera 6262 and the Bugera 333 and I must say they are still pretty fun bad ass amps. I use mostly my Helix rack for live shows, but have used the 6262 for a few shows and it hasn't let me down yet.

[@JoeHasGas]

Is a tube screamer and a noise gate a must

[@JackStolz]

I had one of these in 2009 and it was *fine*... Touring with it was always scary because it felt so cheap, and I honestly felt it was gonna blow up... which it did of course haha. My biggest gripe is the lack of the resonance control. Super weird to omit.

[@jeffreyschroder8004]

Bought one of these 2 years ago, for $300, after the amp I was using blew up. Run a 10 band eq in the loop, using the crunch channel; it slays. Another great video, man.🤘😎

[@Steve_the_Bastard]

I picked of them up from a pawn shop...for next to nothing...got it checked over by a tech..flung in some 6l6s.. ns2 with a tubescreamer mini to pull it together....never had any issues with it ...good vid man...

[@JRs-guitars]

Replace the stock tubes and it becomes a completely different amp that actually keeps working. Buddy of mine has had one for about 5 years. First thing he did was retube it. Other than the lack of resonance...I couldn't tell the difference between this and a 6505. Also...keep practicing your drop C playing, you'll get there.

[@deathblow777]

you mind telling me what tubes he used?

[@joeychavez8318]

Bugera makes incredible budget amps. Match this head with a good cab and you're fucking set! 🤘🏼

[@414deathmetalist]

One feature that somehow doesn’t really get mentioned in these review videos is the ability to use either 6L6 or EL34s. I got mine used and it came with JJ EL34s and I absolutely love it.

[@robeschauzier2621]

My Bug 6260 sounds fine to me, especialy with a boost it put's a smile (or a mean snarl) on my face

[@Stretchwreckedem469]

Wanted to come back and say that these amps crush so hard whenever you put a clean midrange boost in front and dime the gain on the crunch channel all the way to max, as well as adjusting the face knobs to taste because you’re gonna get a really full tone from the amp after you crank the gain all the way. I’ve played around with it for Djent/Metalcore tones on a 7 string and it’s everything that I love in regards to tube guitar tones.

[@MJPGuitar]

When I was in a band I used the 6262 and my bandmate used the 333XL. Both were rock solid. I’d love to try the 1990 next.

[@chrismarcyy]

"you guys are not here for the dad rock riffs" *proceeds to play dad rock riff*

[@belligerentamateur]

I played myself

[@EnYourMom]

Back in 09 I was seeing heads for 800. I would’ve loved to snag one up for under 600. So to me I understand the price range.

[@needsLITHIUM]

Dropped C sounded nasty and gnarly in a good way to my ears. Like, it was messy in a way fitting of Dying Fetus or Deicide. That brutal tech death/slam type of messy. I really dugg it, at least in the recording. I feel like a preamp style distortion would work well in the FX loop with the gain on both it and the amp turned down to like 3 or 4 if you still boost the front input. I have a different amp, but I do that so I can still use the clean channel but also use it as a 2nd distortion tone for leads or for quad track layering on rhythm.

[@1thess523]

One of the musts for Bugera's is a tube change right off the bat.

[@FulcrumsEdge]

for what its worth, after installing new tubes (JJ ECC83s in both amps, and sovtek 6L6WXT's in the 6260 and JJ 6L6GC's in the 6262 infinium) they got me through my stupidity after selling off my 6505+. They definitely do not have that familiarly tuned eq section like the 5150 series, and CAN sound pretty harsh, but i think when they are dialed in right they sound really awesome, especially when i consider that i paid less than 300 for each of them. I like my 6260 with a Boss SD-1 and the 6262 with a TS9 or other tube screamer-ish boosting it.

[@davidlawson7786]

Hi Kyle, Always like your videos. I actually own the Bugera 6262 infinium head, I play a lot of drop tunings such as C# D and also use a Ibanez baritone tuned to B standard. As you demonstrated it takes a bit of tweaking to get a good heavy tone out of the 6262, but it does shine when you get it tweaked, I do a lot of recording with a really good drummer and we’ve gotten some killer recordings using the Bugera, I’ve used the Mesa Boogie flux five overdrive pedal and it sounded really good. Just takes a little work to make that amp chug properly. Keep up the great content Kyle! Also, I did upgrade the tubes to a set of JJ 6L6 tubes.

[@terexasa]

I use to have the 6260. It was a great setup with a Maxon 808 in the front and a BBE Sonic Maximizer in the loop. Of course an ISP G String is needed in the loop and front, but it’s a great inexpensive amp.

[@jedijo1990]

@belligerentamateur bugera foresaw the future of tubed amps and the insane markup they were gonna recieve. Considering evhs' health concerns they knew the equipment associated with him was gonna skyrocket in value. Also, considering the hold the 5150 and its counterparts had on the metal industry, it was a no brainer. It totally made sense even if no one else saw it...

[@joerojas5448]

I don't have the 6262, but (still) have the 6260. I only paid $200 for it used. I had a 6505 and A/B'd them both, sounds are similar. Sold my 6505 and kept the 6260. My 6260 is still killing it on stage.

[@adriandeftones]

I have this amp and the overdrive really highlights or tames down some bad frequencies. I prefer my Maxon OD808 with active pickups for Drop C. The Maxon OD9 sounds very different, a little bit harsh but for passive pickups I like it more, also the crunch channel with the OD9 with gain sounds full-bodied. For modern stuff I have used a ProTone Dead Horse Overdrive and it can tight the amp for Drop Ab on my 7-string.

[@BrandonBames]

Lol I like Exhausted Kyle, the no BS vibe. I hope you’re taking care of yourself and still enjoying it bruh

[@marcomoscoso7402]

Not having the temptation of turning up the Resonance control is better for recording so your tone stays tight and you don´t need to highpass it in the mix. Just a thought. But I would definitely mod the amp if i had one only for room jamming chugga chugga sake

[@xiwiwix]

Great video, bro! Thank you for the share. This is one of those amps I've always wanted to try, in hopes it was a great sleeper deal,... I think this video answer that question, "doodoo". xD Some settings sounded pretty good, but I think with watching your demo, it's scratched that itch for me and I'm "good". I'm getting my 5th Recto Mini tomorrow, I can't seem to let that amp go. With an EQ in the loop and the proper OD in front, I absolutely love it and it just does it for me with Recto tones. "it" idk why I'm talking about Recto Mini's on a 6262 video. haha Hope you have a good one brutha.

[@DeathMetalDevin]

Had a 6260 combo years ago and just like this one it just needed thicker balls

[@Crunchifyable2]

I got this amp for $200 new back in the day and I prefer the crunch to the lead, I think this amp screams hard rock (crunch, dark sound like EVH or Iron Maiden) or detuned metal (on lead). If you wanted a pseudo Metallica style sound, the Bugera 333XL does that better. And you didn't demo the clean, which is really nice actually.

[@kingu4120]

Thanks for another great demo really good stuff. Your really cover everything unlike some others

[@belligerentamateur]

Of course, glad they're helpful!

[@JoeHasGas]

What is a good pruce for a used one ? Would anyone buy the 6060?

[@ronnmims7696]

Surprisingly, this sounds really good with seventy 80's.

[@slayabouts]

I love my Bugera V22, although it’s also my first tube amp so I have no baseline to compare it to. It’s somewhat of a Vox sound, but has some good gain to it and takes pedals extremely well

[@gavinkidd123]

I have the infinium model also, sounds wayyyyy better through DV-77’s.

[@belligerentamateur]

I don't love those speakers, but it's great we have choices!

[@gavinkidd123]

Oh for sure. They have actually started growing on me more and more. Now I prefer them to v30’s lol

[@jamesfindice2871]

Hey awesome video and also nice to see budget amps covered! You know Kyle, I don’t think that 5150/6505 Amps were available for 500bucks in China/India/Russia/or even any country than USA in the late 2000s you mentioned. Also the 6262 NOT infinium came in 2008 and the infinium quite a lot later. Correct me if I’m wrong :) I just Sold a 2008 NOT infinium 6262 and it had never failed the previous owners and me neither. I liked it, but nowadays I don’t need big tube amps. Although I like to buy and test and sell them again ;)

Bugera tube head sound way better with passive pickups and the clean channel is actually pretty amazing with a ssh super strat like an ibanez s series. But tone is suggestive what sounds right to me may not to you but i wanted to throw my opinion in there as well. Love what your doing. I recently acquired a blackstar venue ht100 stage mk2 with a matching vert 2x12 cab and idk if you have had the chance to check them out yet but they are by far the best tube head that blackstar has produced its an absolute monster especially when i run it through my pair of valveking 4x12s the air it moves is like a refreshing breeze that you need earplugs to enjoy lol

[@massttrshrdrharmonicminor2002]

With your playing, I can say I dig it.

[@martinallen9067]

I've just done some recording with my 5150 sig and 6260 with EL34s. Not having the resonance was good because it's such a quick and easy way to mud up the sound. The EL34s gave it different mids to my 5150 so gave good stereo separation when panned hard each side. The only problem I've had with it is the sticky channel buttons when it gets warm

[@mynameisvisutinnadda]

So peavey outside USA can be pretty pricey - as in they don't really drop in price from new. (Bandits in Thailand are like 400 bucks or more second hand)

[@jketterman6054]

I think the amp sounds pretty good with lower tunings.

Looks like no matter what you do in the eq, is always something missing in the low end. Great Review by the way

[@paulanderson771]

Bugera 6262 were $399 when they came out. Peavey 5150's were a classic and a no-brainer for Bugera to make a clone of.

[@dickieradd]

Thanks for doing drop tuning. I think standard E only sounds good for traditional rock/blues

[@briancooke5532]

Early thrash and death metal was played in standard E. Even modern day Black Metal is typically standard E. You can definately get some heavy sounds out of standard E.

[@aaronsg71]

Dude, the Les Paul sounded brutal

[@Stretchwreckedem469]

I might have to try the crunch cha nel for more vintage sounding Thrash rjffs, maybe something along the lines of Megadeth since it's got a lower gain tone than the Lead channel.

[@thedanksavatron7782]

Nissssssssssssssssssce 🍻 Not bad , heard other buggery amps & they were lackluster but thiS one's ok...

[@ChiAeNima]

And so.... The final though is? Will you recommend it as a budget alternative to a 5150/6505 or not?' I own a Peavey 5150II USA from the late 90s early 2000s in need for a valves/tubes change. And owned a Bugera 6260 infinium, that I sold, but for me the sound was kinda satisfying, almost like the real thing. Would you choose the EVH 5150 Iconic or this Bugera 6262 Infinium considering also the money? Thanks in advance brotha.

[@nomadronin7361]

Funny you asked this question. I was pondering this for a while and I ultimately went with the Bugera. Not that the Iconic is bad, I just liked the Bugera better and it’s cheaper.

[@jeremyfickas5137]

Great demo 👍

[@JimmyTorque]

Can we please get a revisit of this amp with some more of those drop c hardcore riff buddy? Got an opportunity to snag one for 500 … really curious if it will do a really thick low end with a hairy top end. Think Randal on roids…

[@harrycanyon273]

I know this is off topic but how do you address the issue of changing strings on all your guitars? How frequently do you change them? I have six guitars at different tunings and it seems like I'm constantly changing strings.

[@TrickyPickins]

Not Kyle, but if you feel like ur strings don't last long enough, I would recommend elixir strings.

[@kazzTrismus]

heres an old timer tip...go to the dollar store and buy one of those joke erasers pink but its almost the size of a cellphone....play then wipe down with a cloth then the eraser. a regular sized eraser will do but youll be eating time rather than a few passes & done....yes youll develop gooves to match your string spacing its fine youll see

[@NecroAeon666]

This could be a good starter if gotten for a few hundred bucks but I play lots of lower tunings or 7 strings so a deal breaker. Also I already own a 6505+ and Triple XxX so brutes are covered! Great review thanks for posting!!!

[@loneponderer495]

the Infinium technology DOES NOT mean you can use any power tube type you want. It self bias but you still need to stay in the same family. Like if it uses 6L6's you can NOT just put in EL34's. No wonder people end up blowing these up so often. It is almost always user error because of none sense like this. Biasing is not just about changing to different types of Power Tubes. Every tube change should also be done with a re-biasing even if you buy more of the same tubes type from the same people. Heck by rights in a none self biasing tube amp you should even do it with the same tubes you already have because the proper bias level changes as the tubes age. Self Biasing just does all this for you it DOES NOT mean you can through in whatever tubes you want. Seriously ask Bugera themselves or Hughes & Kettner if you should do this. Both will tell you NO unless they specify otherwise like the Hughes & Kettner Tri-amp can but it's self bias is different than other amps.

I had to go back to your video from a couple of weeks ago. They copied both Peavey amps? This is actually a different head? So weird. Well - like the 6260. This sounds great with your setup.. I have owned a Bugera before though.. A Tri Rec in my case.. You spend a lot of time wondering if it is broken or if you just set something up really weird. Very odd and cheap amps. Can't imagine depending on one live for multiple nights.

[@belligerentamateur]

Well, the Trirec is a lot like a dual rectifier, since it's based on that amp. Notoriously hard to dial in, so that was probably the main issue. Otherwise, yes. Not a good track record for reliability

​@@keveb4724 i recently got Mesa Traditional 4x12 with 2002 UK made 8ohm speakers, the difference is not even funny

Good luck finding a Blockface 5150 for $500 today.

[@belligerentamateur]

I actually bought one today for $500, lucky me!

[@fullclipaudio]

@@belligerentamateur You got lucky. I have noticed that all those people that got free money are starting to sell their stuff. In the last month, I've purchased two Gibsons in excellent condition - one for $625 and one for $650. I also scored a Marshall 1960A cab with UK Celestions for $175. Funny but all three people needed money for "medications".

[@LeDechaine]

Wow this amp + Drop C is brutal AF. For everything else... I'd take my 6505MH over it lol.

[@igorpak6941]

yeah... but there's no 5150's 1k bugs less...

Bugera amps fell off the face of the earth. Can't seem to find a new one-or used one anywhere unless its a private seller.

Check your local landfill/dump 🤣

[@Smasher-Devourer]

@@krisetches9133 Just because it isn't a 2K mesa boogie amp doesn't mean it sucks. My Trirec has been running strong for almost 10 years.

@@Smasher-Devourer thomann still has some The trirec is cool, kinda regret selling it

[@kazzTrismus]

the factory is very busy making all the amps that people are happily over paying for.

[@watcherzero000]

Just take the name badge off and you can imagine that your playing a peavey 5150 head.

[@billyhiggs6332]

had nothing but problems with mine...junk

[@azzazelo]

We need the standard E, no bs, what is fx? Metal Damon's super 5150 comparison video. That will be epic...

[@KPGuitarStudios]

Sounds like a bunch of bullshit! :P Definitely some lackey-lackeroo on that one. Crate for the win

[@TheCyberMantis]

Too much "Chinesium" going on here. :-/

[@trueworld3857]

Not a good review.Wheres the clean channel tones.Can you play nothing but that noisey guitar crunch stuff which has no musical quality.The only thing thats messy is what your doing on that guitar. I don't think anyone would buy this amp based on this lacklustre review.
