This just came in my feed. Hi Baby Ola 👋

[@DizzyDez613]

Isn't he cute here? Still in his 20's I recon

[@hafcat]

You seriously get better tones than 90% of professional studio guys do.

[@jorbv8]

Had a 6262 for about 9 months now, juat had it serviced and 4 of 6 preamp tubes were replaced, and man it screams... Cheapest tube amp ive ever bought, it rocks out pretty fukn hard too🤘

[@DarkIron98]

I'm buying it! Just because 6505 combo is so heavy that the shipping to Colombia is more expensive than the amp itself, and this head is all tube with free shipping on eBay.

[@OlaEnglund]

@Procyon58 No I wont. reason is that I'm not cut out to make tutorials. They consume huge amounts of my time just to video edit, and I don't feel that's where I want to go with my channel. I rather spend that time writing music. There are some awesome tutorials out there already. If you need info start off at the andy sneap forum.

[@OlaEnglund]

@thesatanicpolkaburn thanks dude but there isn't anything shitty about the sound of this amp. There is just way to many haters out there.

[@keitherikson7147]

Can you do another video soon. I might pick one up today.

[@jacobcardiff8757]

Its amazing to see how far your videos have come

[@dokterkarel]

this guy makes literaly ANY amp sound fucking amazing.

[@DCWelker]

The Bugera 6262 sounds amazing anyway.. the Bugera Trirec sounds even better

[@MyGreatFall]

AWW THAT VOCAL IS SO RAW! I'm in heaven...

[@demodeiowa]

This tone is a combination of the guitar/amp and also the bass tones as well.. So I do hope some people keep that in mind before purchasing this amp expecting the exact same tone you're hearing in this video

[@OlaEnglund]

@inagerli My vague knowledge in german(3years in school) make me think you say : "great playing as always, but are you wearing makeup?" And thanks, but I don't wear makeup... I'm already too good looking.... yeah... right

[@Vakich]

Bugera rules! I've got Bugera Trirec for 3 years and it's perfect, and when i put new EL34 into, then it sounds like a beast! But i want Bugera 6262 now, cuz i realy like how Peavey 6505 sounds.

[@jw11432]

@fearedse this is true. ive owned my bugera 6262 for over a year now and gigged many times with it. no stock tubes, i do have to say im not impressed with their tubes, but with some el34's in there of a quality brand, pre and power section, it's been a fantastic head and never let me down.

[@trevorjackson772]

I use a Bugera 1990 head, it blew up on me once about 3 months of using it every other weekend at gigs. I got it fixed and it has been amazing ever since. Its been about 3 years since then.

[@JackieRobinson24]

I know I may not be the person you want answering you because I'm not Ola BUT as a fellow guitarist looking for good tone and not having to pay thousands.. this is perfect.

[@Rvp5150]

They've actually fixed the reliability issues with these amps. It was only the first 6-7 months that they were produced that had issues. All the "Infinium" amps are fine.

[@AlanCessa]

Ohhh... The tuning is C Standard, I've learned it by ear... Great song! I own a Bugera 6262 combo and sounds killer! I just made a cover for Possessed using it, hope you can check it out! Cheers!

[@rockrenegade]

I like how despite how serious you look when you play, you still give us things like random shots of dogs and cartoon panthers.

[@OlaEnglund]

@hojam23 thanks dude, you can get them by donating to my blog olaenglund . com

[@OlaEnglund]

@Johndrumful305 The Bugeras sound great, but I think people are referring to is mainly about build quality. I have no experience since I haven't owned one or gigged one. All I know is that at least the one I tried sounded good.

[@wattdog16]

Sounded awesome- I ordered a 6262 last week and I'm expecting it tomorrow. Hoping to really put it through its paces. It probably won't be my primary amp (unless it is better than I expect), but I really love Bugera products

[@woolgum]

wattdog16 how was it?

[@bernieboi8943]

Grabbed a 6262 a few days ago together with a Bugera 412. The cab isnt the best of worlds but this setup sounds killers since i am coming from a katana 50w. whole setup costed me 300 euro's. For that price its insane. Amp head only was 250 euros (Netherlands secondhand). I bet the sound will be better with a proper cabinet. Also the amp I use is loaded with the stock Bugera Valves. A valve upgrade can also improve the sound of the head. For a budget conscious mind this setup is really a best bet!. Try to get a Infinium head or one of the later models, since the early models used a plastic item that would burn at heat. Ive read that past 2009+- this lil'something was upgraded and it shouldnt catch any fire.

[@nolife66666]

Depends on your guitar rig. If you have solid tube head with solid 4x12, you can go for SD Blackouts or Distortion(i prefer Blackouts because they have massive low end boom, palm mutes sounds really huge), if you have bit low cost rig you can go for SH8, sound really cool on everything. Highest passive output, SH8 Invaders are used in NILE, BRUTUS, DEATH etc. really metal pickup! For me is SH8 more oldschool and bassy "woom" with nice round/war sound. SD AHB are more modern for me.

[@ThePhrygiandom]

Dude your playing is incredible. Great demo.

[@OlaEnglund]

@grantorrone thanks man. of course I'm promoting my songs, that's the whole idea with testing all these amps. you can check out my guitar recording tutorial to learn how I work.

[@motosurge]

This song has such a Testament vibe to it!!! I know they are one of your favourite bands Ola the Swede!

[@kuringmundo]

you looked like an angel, ola

[@PeteKaltsa]

I have one of these. Got it for $100. It sounds fantastic. Build quality is great. I’ve made hundreds of pedals and this is a sturdy amp

[@gilbertoguzman7515]

Is it a infinium series? I am about to buy one, but its not a infinium

[@PeteKaltsa]

Yes. I’ve had a brand new jcm800 in 1985, a 73, 69, 77 Marshall, dsl100, JTM45, and tbh it’s better sounding then them. I’m keeping my one for good

[@tubescreamermuff]

@DarkZpartan9 if you have this amp then try to get the lead channel knobs to match the knobs in the beginning, or if you're trying to get a similar sound from another unit, then google this Bugera amp so you can see which equalization parameters (mid, low, high, ect...) are which on this amp here in relation to the video intro (of course, pause if you need to) to gain a sense of the eq used as it was here, and of course try and match it to your unit of distortion.

[@OlaEnglund]

@DarkZpartan9 The settings in the beginning of the video 0:07

[@givemeajackson]

@FromTheVoidd your decision. i'd take the 333, but it comes down to your likings and style. the 333 is more versatile, that's what you can tell for sure. think of the new trirec too.

[@Draceius]

@ManofWar55 Yup, if you google them prices will come up, the trirec is around £500, if you live in the UK, but yh, they're both out.

[@justenbeashel]

@Dimitribujiashvili yes it comes stock with bugera's own 6L6 tubes. And 6L6 or EL34, one is not "better" than the other, they serve different purposes, Think 'generally' el34's having a more scooped (not overly just slightly) british sound while 6l6's have a more midrangey american feel to them. I can't go past 6l6's more 'modern' metal, metalcore, hardcore etc etc but thats just MY own tone. Try everything out and see what you like :)

[@XroognX]

He usually tracks one left then one right with just an Sm57. You can see the stand in the right hand corner.

[@DJRay]

@thesatanicpolkaburn As an owner of a 6262, there is nothing shit about this amp. Not sure where you're getting your info from.

[@ancpoiss]

man it sound killer , even without booster pedal

[@nicktshredz]

I think it's really really impressive that not matter what amp you play out of ALL the ones you have played you still get your tone plus the signature tone of the amp.

[@bbussey1967]

Dude, Your Rhythm Playing Is Sick Awesome ! ! ! ! !

[@emerald876]

The 6262-212 has the speakers in it. Go for an amp and cab setup, combo amps get tube rattle too easily.

[@givemeajackson]

@Paulko89 i had once a 6260, andi have to say, its not very easy to handle. you have to find the spot where your eq's start to work, and then it's bedroom volume, just doesn't sound very good. my tip is to put a volume pedal in the fx loop. so you can turn up the master without destroying your house ;D ( btw, my 6260 broke down, it was some early serie)

[@pgallant]

I just realized this, but that little triple bend at the end of your solo is SO Michael Amott.

[@JoshuaB86]

@XFXHITMAN Yeah the very first models had a plastic clip on the end of the transformer plug which would melt and cause it to lose connection to the pcb. My 333xl is over 2 years old and came with the wires soldered directly to the board(the fix). It was the very first ones out of production that were plagued with the issue. It was a simple issue anyways, but the internet likes to blow things out of proportion almost as if the amp would melt it's own guts.

[@OlaEnglund]

@krisis99 your listening to its raw sound in this video...

[@OvaDiuk]

@FrontlineGuitar Yeah man you'RE right, i don't remember why i wrote that shit, maybe i was just amazed by the magical shirt so that i couldn't think about writing right.

[@The3rdStrikeIsOnYou]

This video pretty much made up my mind about buying this amp'. It has such a killer tone!

[@CoolKabbage]

@givemeajackson If you put a volume pedal in the fx loop, you don't actually crank the tubes when the master volume is cranked. You need a true attenuator for it. Unless you mean use a volume pedal for better control, then I agree

[@quaxBK]

That thing is super smooth..

[@Preussenpenner]

Well , actually this amp can sound good with Low or midhigh Volume too ;)It isnt only a 120wattandthengood - amp , it is pretty flexible in that way !

[@PippPriss]

Basically, this video made me buy this amp. ;) Basically, your movies in general gave me a whole new perspective to tone, thank you for that!

[@emperorofthenorth5]

wow, didn't expect great great tone from the Bugera might have reconsider them...

[@staynoisi]

@punk4life1029 depends on whether you need seperate EQs for your crunch and clean channel (6262) or you have no problem with a shared EQ section for cunch and clean (6260)

[@SomethinWild]

I'm soooo sorry if you feel forced. This guy asked for advice, I shared my experiences. I had two Bugera amps (one 333XL and one 6260) and both sucked big time. I still think they are crap.

[@Gecc]

@Johndrumful305 Hi dude! My friend bought this amp not much after they came out(about 2-3 years ago, I guess.) And yes, it broke in ONE month. But he used the warranty to get the amp checked out, which means for free. Ever since then it works perfectly, and a lot of bands, and even some rehearsal rooms bought Bugera amps around town, because they liked the sound so much. In my opinion, they are definitely worth their price.

[@6stringbravo616]

Got a deal one of these wanted to see a review from you cuz I know you do alot of bugera stuff and I must say it's weird seeing no beard. Btw grats on the new album .

[@Khae.]

Nevermind the signature guitar or socks. I want that t-shirt.

[@OlaEnglund]

@TourettesUnicorn No I put them in a pile in the backyard and once every year I make a big fire.

[@expressyourselfist]

If a cheap amp can be made sound like this,why to spend more on an amp.I do not know how in life gig situation this amp would sound,and if it would be reliable on the road,but in a studio Ola has proven that it is all about the sound after all.

[@ManofWar55]

@Draceius. Nice nice. I'm in America though, so I think it may be different, but I'll look into it.

[@teenmetalhead666]

hey man, i love the fact that your playin all these different amps, but you should post some vids of how the amps sound without all the eq

[@pietdepsi]

dude your tests are badass :D thank you for making a high quality video with one of these :D-

[@Madbutcher305]

@democheparte The marzio's won't fufill that roll very well, so I recommend the Blackouts, as they have a higher output than the EMGs and a more modern tone which seems to be what you're after.

[@givemeajackson]

@Snapsa100 no, they mostly copy peavey ( 333 = triple xxx, 333xl= jsx, 6260 =6505/5150, 6262 = 6505+/ 5150 II) also the copied the recto and the ac30.

[@sopotito]

I was checking all your videos (almost :D) and you got some really good skills producing music... you got some really good skills on recordings greets from the end of the world

[@stolengoodnight]

I love my bugera 333xl, and I've thought of getting a 6262. But when it comes down to it, you have to have a 6505+, period.

[@HeilTheOperator]

@lagiator It depends of which kind of rock you play. I own this amp and I really love the Crunch channel, it has enough gain for most rock and heavy rock (with hot pickups).

[@nickshaw89]

I love my 6262.

[@givemeajackson]

@CoolKabbage just for the control. you know, the volume pot is horribe in at low volume! the eq's don't react, then if you crank it 2 millimeters, your ears fall off :/

[@ilikeheadcrabs]

can't really get much better for the money than this

[@MJMorrey]

@grantorrone From experience in the studio if the amp or what ever instrument sounds wank in the first place there's no amount of processing that will improve it. From how it sounds on here it seems to be an extremely good amp!

[@gtarmn75]

I talked to the Bugera distributer in the u.s. and he didn't say it but I think they are waiting to get their new amp repair center up and going before the infiniums hit the market. I've got buddies that run guitar shops that won't carry Bugera due to there u.s. distributer not making good financially on certain returns. Jet city and egnater are dist. By the same co. I believe also. Bugera got a bad rap. Sure they had problems. But they did the best they could.

[@metalguy625]

@h2ogunmaet it's one of the better budget cabs out there. I've played through one and it soundedd pretty good to me. I haven't done extensive testing but it's pretty decent.

[@EvilPopsicleDog]

This amp sounds amazing, it looks great too. I had a 333XL which was THE SHIT ...for about 3 days, until it broke down... Pretty much sums up Bugera's.

[@OlaEnglund]

@lagiator yes!

[@mike.ashton]

as a last resort amp if you have no money, this amp is win... but a used 5150II is around the same price, and a little bit better

[@maxmontana7410]

Oh, finally you pulled out solo from mix

[@pgallant]

My god...the crunch. MY EARS...

[@1985piter]

Hello Kristóf Nagy, I was thinking about sh-8, but Ola has recommended to me sh-6, I have bought it and it is awesome too. Regards!

[@OlaEnglund]

@RandomHyperKid congrats!

[@wrestling45]

I think the Bugera 6262 and the Peavey 6505 sound pretty similar. What do you think? In my opionion, it sounds it great! Im just assuming that most people talk trash on it because it's not as known as peavey and the fact that the 6505 is used by the majority of metal bands out there.

[@UMadUJelly]

@drvicisko Sorry I misunderstood you at first. I'm checking it out right now. Thank you!

[@matheusferreira.youtube]

man i love your videos and watch you playing,keep on rockin :)

[@Draceius]

@ManofWar55 Yup,it came out after winter namm this year.

[@staynoisi]

@Dojom1023 an OD like the Maxon or Ibanez tubescreamer makes your sound more compact and tightens the low end, so I guess it wouldn't help, maybe a compressor could do the trick ...but quite honestly I have played the 333XL and I don't think it lacks low end beef, maybe a different Cab or Guitar could help you to get a thicker sound.

[@givemeajackson]

@Paulko89 the newer bugeras are pretty faultless, the fist ones had some shitty plastic transformers wich couldn't resist the heat of the tubes.

[@AXESLINGER2112]

OLA, AS ALWAYS YOU NAIL ANOTHER KILLER TONE, BUT BUDDY YOU NEED TO DO THE DEMO ON THE 333XL...I HAVE OWNED BOTH THE 333 AND 6262 AND THE 333XL DOMINATES ALL OTHER!!!!!! SO, I BEG OF YOU!!!!!! DO A 333XL DEMO VIDEO

[@SinisterFlames]

@EvilPopsicleDog No just a shitty line... Every company has had them, they produced a faulty line and then they break down on people i have a bugera 6262 myself. i have it for about a half year now and still rocks! Don't judge bugera because of a faulty line...

[@panos666]

I think that after all those beasts you've tested(and demonstrated their awesomeness), it's time to try some of the more humble (and lower priced) amps out there and demonstrate their abilities into metal sound, the bugeras are a good starting point..so if you get your hands into some cheaper amps, it'd be nice..after all, you're the only one on youtube to makes them sound good! :)

[@OlaEnglund]

@DarkZpartan9 YES?

[@BraveMavrick]

@Dojom1023 Your best bet is to get a eq pedal and use it in you effects loop. It will let you fine tune your sound.

[@givemeajackson]

@lagiator nah, i think it's really an overtly metal amp. check out the bugera 333/333xl and 1990, those will fit you better i think.

[@davidmckelvey2601]

Ola without a beard is cursed

[@666METALLIAN666]

Yes. Bugeras need new tubes, great cabinet and they are killers for the price. But old amps like 5150 or JCM800 are different story of quality.

[@Soulreaper066]

lol, I'm glad you tested this amp since I have one, I just can't make mine sound this good >_>

[@puredisgust]

just bought a bugera 6262 its disgustingly sick kids.......the clean is amazing as well.

[@thinkingjack]

Pre bearded Ola 😳

[@Sybreeds]

Good catch I was starring at the guitar the whole time and didn't notice lol

[@ramenoomori2909]

All his demos sound the same? Seriously some dudes should stop using laptop speakers lol

[@AeonAxisProductions]

I have pretty high end samsung earbuds and the amps DEFINITELY sound different

[@down7unedpc740]

Why are musicians so retarded.

[@Cleavatr0n]

DOWN7UNED Because we’re all special ;)

[@BallzMcGavin]

Lol only noob ears can't tell the difference Try hard

[@CREPERUM]

@@AeonAxisProductions i m pretty sure jared dines said all amps sound the same in a video. Stop lying...xd

[@kvncldrn]

333XL is fucking amazing. I highly recommend it. I have that amp and I am very very very satisfied with it. Seriously. I have the combo amp and the only thing that bothers me a little bit is that it sounds a liiiiiiiiiittle bit fuzzy. but it's just the shitty speakers in the combo. Still. get it. it's amazing.

[@AdamSteinzOfficial]

@magazinedude2002 I'll second that! I NEED my daily "OLA FIX!"

[@klblackstar]

well, ola is a big machine head fan.
