The intro shows something very essential: despite all talk about quality and sound, this intro of affordable amps shows the most fun I've seen in recent videos. Playing is about fun.
@BradgeTV I would love to try These Squires ment no disrespect to Behringer and Squire, the early part of my career I proudly played a cherry burst Squire Strat which hung tight week after week.What I could have said is they aren't as expensive as the gear every body looks at in the ads.And you can still have all the fun and a rewarding musical experience. There.that is more what I was getting at .Cheers BradgeTV
@@lastofthe4horsemen279 That's the thing with inexpensive gear. Might not be great out of the box, but I've never received a Squier guitar, for example, that couldn't be tweaked/modified into a fantastic instrument. My main guitar is a Classic Vibe 50s Strat with a completely factory stock Bullet Strat loaded pickguard. Only modification to the electronics is a MojoTone output jack (original one died on me). Those little ceramic pups blew me away.
If a cheap amp is all a person can afford, then it's going to sound good to them and that's all that should matter to that player. Happiness in what one does. 👍🎸👊🎸🤘🎸✌🎸
Did you ever notice at most blues jam nights, the best players have cheaper rigs, and the douche canoes bring the $3000+ guitars and boutique amps and pedals yet still sound like shit...?
Pete, Strat, neck pickup, some gain - Amazing on any guitar and amp! Captain is sounding wonderful too, really wonderful! One of these days, we're going to be in Europe and my wife already knows (and has approved!) we need to stop in at Anderton's.
The cheap gear is always my favorite stuff, because I enjoy tinkering & modifying just as much as I enjoy playing. Don't like something about it? Tweak it. Don't know how to get it "there"? There's a wealth of knowledge about it online, so learn how and gain some knowledge. Taking an inexpensive guitar and turning it into a quality piece gives me a great feeling of accomplishment and satisfaction.
I used to only play combos, my first head was from Behringer's Virtube VT100 FXH. A great amp. I hope that this new amp also has a top with 100 watts. Good Video an very good Sound
Behringer already had solid state amps that sounded good. The VT series sounded quite good. I got the 100W VT head and it's amazing. Two different clean tone and two different OD channel tones. Both channels have full EQ. And it comes with digital effects, and fx loop, and reverb on top of that. Footswitchable channels and FX.
The look of the combo is reminiscent of the Marshall MG CFX series. And of the settings and arrangements of the controls and the designation on the Harley Benton HB20R. Nevertheless, the Behringer HA20R has its own great sound
My first amp back in the day was one of those super cheap solid state 15 Watt Marshalls, that weren't even made by Marshall I guess. Probably some megafactory makes them in China and slaps a logo on demand. And I had a very cheap guitar. Entire "rig" was cheaper than some of the pedals I have now. It wasn't good. But you know what? I still had tremendous fun. This was my gateway into a great hobby. I went from religiously listening to music since I was a kid to playing, thanks to the fact that you can actually have instruments and musical equipment these days that are by all means cheap. And playable. My only regret is that I started very late. I was around 17. I've missed out on having a learning ability of a child. Instead I powered through with adult's determination.
What a great intro. Well, small speakers do impact tone, so if you want to practice it should be fine but for concerts with a decent PA I'd rather go direct. By the way I have the same approach for Bass Guitar.
I had a Behringer for a time .I found it .I also had one of those Crate amps that was blonde and might have had a tube or 2 in it .Now I have a Vox AC30C2and a Deluxe Reverb 65 reissue but I haven't forgotten where it started. Actually started with an awesome Champ silver face but when it died it was All Behringer and Crate.
@@andertons Probably just simulator software codes.. But, I don't see "real" amps going away any time soon. They will probably be even cheaper to produce with new technology. There have been some advancements in speaker technology in the past years, you can get a pretty darn good sounding 6-8" speaker for guitar, but they tend to be a bit more expensive.
Back in 'the day' for an amp of the same quality of the £20 one, you'd pay three times that, and that was in old money, so £100+ in today's cash. Granted, if it was a Peavey, a car could probably run over it and it would have been OK. I did once find a Peavey amp abandoned in the middle of the street so maybe someone was trying that out in some pre-Mythbusters experiment. I did once leave mine at the side of the street walking it home after a bit too much liquid fun, but not right in the middle of the highway!
Pete will you please do a lesson or a video talking about your right hand technique. Seeing how much you use the thumb and index finger with the pick tucked away, and move up and down playing adjacent string pairs has changed my playing. I’m playing like this more now with double stops and triads, but can’t really find any lessons on it on UA-cam as it isn’t really hybrid picking or finger style.
The 40w reminds me of the 30w Marshall DSL I had back in the eighties, that was a beast of an amp it was always being gigged by my friends who didn't want to lug their monster 100w stacks to a pub gig (hi Mike).
@@asw7696 No I meant Nineties but age has addled my brain , was defo a 30 watt marshall combo with reverb tho, really nice amp and bloody loud. Sold it to my best mate when I was skint like you do. He was the one who was always gigging with it so at least it went to a better place lol.
@@melvoid01 Perhaps it was the Marshall Artist 4203. If so, I had one of those too and used to carry the head version (3203) as a backup amp. If it was that amp, it was pretty good. I think it was a solid state preamp with a valve power amp if memory serves me correctly with spring reverb.
Behringer HA-10G-UL 1x6-inch 10-watt Combo Amp. That little beast. Great for gigging small to mid-size clubs. For more punch, just use a microphone. Just use pedals such as noise gate, reverb, compression, and EQ. I suggest you use, Mooer GE200.
Even though I got full on tube amps, hybrid amps and pricy solid state amps, sometimes I still take out my first cheap crappy guitar amp and play my heart out with it. Yes the amp was crap, but a good player will make it sound good and as my first guitar amp it also means a lot to me since my parents bought it for me.
Dont forget Ebay, I picked up a Katana 100 twin for less than 200 because it was the version 1, does everything I need, is bulletproof, loud enough for Quo and saves my Marshalls valves for playing live, best cheap Gear everyone should own is the Joyo American and Caline Blue Sky, Son has Katana Mini, bloody brilliant.
My first rig was one of those Fender Squire packs with the Fender Frontman 10G and that's about a shitbox as one can get. These sound a whole level better that those POS's. The only thing worse that the Frontman 10G was no amp at all.
I'm looking forward to the Andertons videos on the Bugera amp heads 🙂 I've been a fan for a while and have waited for them to get some more publicity... now they don't set fire to themselves anymore!
Any amp with a half-decent speaker can sound good if you dial in something nice. And sometimes 'bad' sounding boxy amps can be a thing in the right setting
What amp do all of you guys recommend between the ha 40r and vox mini super beetle? Just saw this amp on sweetwater and amazed for the price and now seeing the video I don't know which one buy
I'm probably buying that g10, because it sounds so bad-yet-great, and It's really, really hard to find new guitar gear that sounds bad but in a good way.
does ha stand for hybrid amp? (tube preamp, solid state power section?) edit: i think they sound good for the money, if i had one as a youth or beginner id be well happy with it. kind a vintage voiced aswell until you add too much gain.
The first amp I ever bough myself was a Behringer GX110, 30W version of the Blue Devil. Probably the worst sound I ever heard, especially at 15 when I didn't know shit about proper amp setups. I still have it somewhere, I wonder if I can get a decent tone out of it. I would have been extremely happy with the 40W Pete played, I was really surprised by it.
those HA amps can really make you say "HA!" i have their Bugera T5 infinium. plenty loud amp with a 70w 12" wharfedale. but it has too much low end to my ears. tele thinline plugged straight in, i move the treble knob between 3 o'clock and all the way up!
Just got the 40w today. Running the 35 dollar behringer sansamp clone into the clean and let me tell you it is LOUD. Like incredibly loud for a single 10. Plenty of eq flexibility and sounds great. Nice reverb as well. It is a bargain.
Is it too loud for regular indoor usage I mean like a room? I would want that instead of the 20W for reasons of versatility, but I'm afraid I couldn't use it on the volume that gives you the best of its sound features.
You could buy everything behringer makes for around 10k. Every instrument, amp, mic, interface, synth module, keyboard, outboard gear, etc. would be interesting to see an all behringer studio.
The only problem with these is that they'd be an ideal affordable practice amp in the 80s or 90s. The issue now is that if you save up an extra $100 or a little bit more beyond what these cost you can then buy something like a Boss Katana, Orange Crush, Peavey Vypyr, Fender Mustang series etc., that all sound better and most of which have all these cool built in effects and features.
Sounds like a swarm of angry bees in a box, but I like it! Not for most situations, but I could definitely see some use for these amps. Could really use some thickness from a tube screamer. I'd be happy to solo away with that setup.
@Soy Orbison listen to the guitar solo of Joutsenlaulu by Saimaa on youtube (instrumental song, the solo is about midway through the song). I love that sound, even though it's not the most boutique-high-end-expensive sound. These amps, paired with a tube screamer could perhaps achieve that tone.
Behringer are entry level amps. That being said they sound OK for the price. I have a V-Tone GMX212. It has 2 * 60 watt 12" Behringer brand speakers.(Bugera). Had it for for 14 years. I use it to noodle around. It sounds good clean. Modelling as well. 27 modelled sounds. Stereo as well. $550 when I bought it new.
I think for try AN amp, must use whitout a any kind of pedal or multieffect....i got alredy a behringer 40 watt, and i'm able to use whitout any pedal and sound Is amazing...thanks.
If you are careful you can go as low as 6". I used to use an old hi-fi speaker with just the circa 6" woofer connected as it had good power handling and a good sound. Why? Because it was low efficiency to allow that low frequency extension in a small speaker which meant I could tame my valve amp for recording. It's not what you'd want to be gigging with, though. I had a Electar (Gibson) amp with an 8" speaker, though, and the speaker let it down. Sadly, that had no extension speaker option, but with a bit of soldering and a 2x12" it sounded much better. I had lost the old hi-fi speaker by that point, but it would probably have sounded better through that than the 8" one, just a lot quieter. It was only 5W.
I prefer a Tweed Fender Champ with an 8" speaker. Or even a Gibson ga5 LP jr.. amp with an 8" speaker. There's even the Fender Greta with a 4.5" speaker I think. It sounds great to me though.
I dont get why wattage is such a selling point. I have a 100watt amp and have never used it even 1/10th of the volume. Even gigging the amp is usually mic'd up and not needed. I recently bought a 5 watt amp and it is way more than capable of playing with a drummer at the lowest wattage setting. I'd encourage any new guitar player to save your money on a cheap low watt amp and when youre ready get a better hiwatt amp.
There's a specific reason higher wattage amps exist. You just aren't in a genre that requires it. Genres like jazz, and religious groups who rely on clean tones at a higher volume need more headroom so that quality of the output doesn't deteriorate at higher volumes. That's why people even in many genres that use distorted tones but still need cleans for something like a balled, or ambiance riffs use higher wattage amps then run a pedal for gain.
Dude, I own a Fender Champion 20 and at home the volume never goes above 3. The whole high wattage amp thing came to be due to the 70s we’re pa’s sucked and huge stadium crowds couldn’t hear the shit without high wattage amps. Nowadays no one needs anything more than a 5 watt tube amp. It’s all mic’d with pa’s that are probably even better than the amps themselves these days.
Everyone gives me a real funny look when I talk about the tone of that stage right combo like fuck that amp..it really sounds awesome and classic to me..They gave me funny looks when I talked about the marshall mgdfhx.. Also about the metal zone that I got for 20 bucks, LOL try that now thanks olaf!.. But I always got asked what did I use on a recording and I seen the puzzled looks,lol even after a gig espcialy with the MT-2. The stuff can make some good recordings. So Let people hate, it keeps the market down. There is not a reason a poor man can not be expressive in their jams right now. Besides you have to admit That intro jam sounded great.Good ole blues rock
@@markerviedejesus not anymore actually. They did a video pretty recently where they made new pedalboards with cheap pedals and said they were only using budget gear with budget gear from now on, which is why they’re both playing squiers here

Too wholesome for the internet
Absolutely. 👏
That 40 watt would make a killer first amp for a beginning guitar player. That's outrageously good for the price.
I've just ordered a Tele. I've never touched one.
I'm excited, had to share.
the best of us come to same conclusion eventually - teles are the gods of guitardom - welcome to the elite club, I salute you
A Tele means business. Welcome to boogie-town Pulled Pork🤟🏻
LET ME TELL YOU.... THERES NOTHING LIKE IT!! A LES PAUL IS CLOSE BUT A TELECASTER IS ALWAYS HOME!!!
So I have had to edit my comment thanks to some people not understanding a simple question: 'Which model of Telecaster?'
@@Catsincages doesn't matter, teles are teles, I've got a cheapo squier and an old yank one - both teles
I loved the “dueling guitars” soloing during the intro.
Epic harmonization moment
I’m not usually a fan of guitar noodling jams but you guys killed it with that dirty hi bend call and response thing. It was cool.
I love that you've finally started demoing cheap gear with other cheap gear.
That looks like the most fun you guys have had with an intro ! And sounded good too !
You guys are legends! Never stop the jams at the beginning :D if I’m pressed for time I just watch the jam at the start 😂🤘🏼 much love from SA!
Great opening blues jam guys one of the best I've heard on your channel some really tasty licks there!
I've watched this video 7 times and I'm getting the 40 watt tommorow im so excited to finally get a good amplifier
Well, how do you rate this combo after 2 years? Not disappointed?
@@qwerasdf9055 it's been really good, especially with pedals, I've got a few and it sounds great.
Is there a standard foot switch for this amp????
One of the greatest intro solos by Danish Pete! Love my classic vibe strat, it rocks!
Y'all are right, these are a great value! I would been ecstatic to have the 40 watt one when i started in the 90s
Pete, Strat, neck pickup, some gain - Amazing on any guitar and amp! Captain is sounding wonderful too, really wonderful! One of these days, we're going to be in Europe and my wife already knows (and has approved!) we need to stop in at Anderton's.
When there is “no risk” because we are demoing a “cheap” product, the playing gets a lot better.

That intro jam could possibly be the best I've heard on the channel so far.
Greetings captain ...watching u play in every vedio has given me inspiration to practice guitar♥️
So those are basically the 21st century Crate amps
Yeah, but so much cheaper. I remember the old 10/12W crates being 80/90 quid. Under 100 for a 40W, with switchable channels. Awesome.
More like the Gorilla Amps. Crates cost more than those as I recall.
I used to only play combos, my first head was from Behringer's Virtube VT100 FXH. A great amp. I hope that this new amp also has a top with 100 watts. Good Video an very good Sound
That would be great to make a affordable gear now VS affordable gear in 90’

Both channels have full EQ. And it comes with digital effects, and fx loop, and reverb on top of that. Footswitchable channels and FX.
What an intro jam!! Love it....thats why I bought a Squier Tele...
Please do a video on the behringer pedals, they're absolutely amazing, I'd love for you to check them out!!!
The look of the combo is reminiscent of the Marshall MG CFX series. And of the settings and arrangements of the controls and the designation on the Harley Benton HB20R. Nevertheless, the Behringer HA20R has its own great sound
The 40w with the overdrive pedal is VERY SRV sounding. For less than £150, thats a great tone!

Nice intro jam. I was thinking Freebird at the end there too!
great fun review for a not so serious Friday morning, but it would have been nice to hear some humbuckers being played through the amps
Cheap gear these days is becoming so playable.
You can get insane tones just with a Squier Strat and one of these bedroom amps
Think what it will be like in 10 years...

They honestly sound much much better than the crappy Fender Frontmans that were available when I was starting out.
The Frontman 15g was my starter amp and it was hideous. Ok clean, but the distortion was like wasp farts. Horrid. Cheap gear has come such a long way.
I'd be curious to hear what the 40w combo sounds like into a box with 12'' speakers (V30s for example).

Greetings from Canada... I was wondering if the Behringer VTC Tube modeling part of these amps are digital or pure solid state?

rebranded harley benton amps for the us market? the dial and sockets seems way too similar
Does HA stand for the sound everyone makes when you roll up on a gig with one of these?
Gear is cool, but the ability to house rock is what matters. Eddie Kirkland used to rock the house on a First Act guitar.
@Soy Orbison
True, but then again, even with the best gear money can buy, that's still not going to make you sound better than you are.
it stands for Holy Aphex ;-)
I gig every weekend with the Joyo 5 watt 5f1 Champ clone. Nobody cares.
Knowing your gear really well is far more important than having the most expensive gear
@andertons is that classic vibe tele an andertons exclusive??
Damn The Captain keeps getting better and better🤙
Not on that opening jam ;)
You could buy everything behringer makes for around 10k. Every instrument, amp, mic, interface, synth module, keyboard, outboard gear, etc. would be interesting to see an all behringer studio.

I think for a beginner is a "real" (,no modeling) amp better..2 channels and the rest is in your fingers..analog dynamics ect..
My thoughts exactly. It's like they've basically just re-issued the Crate GX-15 or Peavey Rage 158. Why, man? Just why? Ha! 😂
@@knommi then that beginner is better off saving up a little more money for an Orange Crush or a Marshall MG. They sound way better than this.
@@knommi me too, I'd have killed for one of those when I was a kid and I hate menus and in built effects , I can't understand them]
Sounds like a swarm of angry bees in a box, but I like it! Not for most situations, but I could definitely see some use for these amps. Could really use some thickness from a tube screamer. I'd be happy to solo away with that setup.
@Soy Orbison listen to the guitar solo of Joutsenlaulu by Saimaa on youtube (instrumental song, the solo is about midway through the song). I love that sound, even though it's not the most boutique-high-end-expensive sound. These amps, paired with a tube screamer could perhaps achieve that tone.
@Soy Orbison ua-cam.com/video/nK4N7vS4SnI/v-deo.html here's the song, the solo starts at 2:14 and continues after the saxophone
@@oskarileikos Oh man... what a video???
Behringer are entry level amps. That being said they sound OK for the price. I have a V-Tone GMX212. It has 2 * 60 watt 12" Behringer brand speakers.(Bugera). Had it for for 14 years. I use it to noodle around. It sounds good clean. Modelling as well. 27 modelled sounds. Stereo as well. $550 when I bought it new.
I think for try AN amp, must use whitout a any kind of pedal or multieffect....i got alredy a behringer 40 watt, and i'm able to use whitout any pedal and sound Is amazing...thanks.
The best intro jam ever. Squire/behringer!
10" speakers are the minimum size for a decent sound in my opinion
If you are careful you can go as low as 6". I used to use an old hi-fi speaker with just the circa 6" woofer connected as it had good power handling and a good sound. Why? Because it was low efficiency to allow that low frequency extension in a small speaker which meant I could tame my valve amp for recording. It's not what you'd want to be gigging with, though. I had a Electar (Gibson) amp with an 8" speaker, though, and the speaker let it down. Sadly, that had no extension speaker option, but with a bit of soldering and a 2x12" it sounded much better. I had lost the old hi-fi speaker by that point, but it would probably have sounded better through that than the 8" one, just a lot quieter. It was only 5W.
no they're not
I prefer a Tweed Fender Champ with an 8" speaker. Or even a Gibson ga5 LP jr.. amp with an 8" speaker. There's even the Fender Greta with a 4.5" speaker I think. It sounds great to me though.
The Yamaha THR series disproves this.
6:20 for The Captain's Leek
Love you, Cap!
I dont get why wattage is such a selling point. I have a 100watt amp and have never used it even 1/10th of the volume. Even gigging the amp is usually mic'd up and not needed. I recently bought a 5 watt amp and it is way more than capable of playing with a drummer at the lowest wattage setting. I'd encourage any new guitar player to save your money on a cheap low watt amp and when youre ready get a better hiwatt amp.
There's a specific reason higher wattage amps exist. You just aren't in a genre that requires it. Genres like jazz, and religious groups who rely on clean tones at a higher volume need more headroom so that quality of the output doesn't deteriorate at higher volumes. That's why people even in many genres that use distorted tones but still need cleans for something like a balled, or ambiance riffs use higher wattage amps then run a pedal for gain.
exactly - my AC 30 never gets used cos it's too loud (and too heavy) all hail the blues junior
Dude, I own a Fender Champion 20 and at home the volume never goes above 3. The whole high wattage amp thing came to be due to the 70s we’re pa’s sucked and huge stadium crowds couldn’t hear the shit without high wattage amps. Nowadays no one needs anything more than a 5 watt tube amp. It’s all mic’d with pa’s that are probably even better than the amps themselves these days.
at this point i'm convinced every guitar pete touches just turns purple
My first guitar was a behringer strat with an Arja amp lol
My first guitar was a nobrand S-type with a 25W Roland amp...switched quite quickly for a Aria Pro ll, whhich was a marvelous guitar.
Everyone gives me a real funny look when I talk about the tone of that stage right combo like fuck that amp..it really sounds awesome and classic to me..They gave me funny looks when I talked about the marshall mgdfhx.. Also about the metal zone that I got for 20 bucks, LOL try that now thanks olaf!..
But I always got asked what did I use on a recording and I seen the puzzled looks,lol even after a gig espcialy with the MT-2. The stuff can make some good recordings. So Let people hate, it keeps the market down. There is not a reason a poor man can not be expressive in their jams right now. Besides you have to admit That intro jam sounded great.Good ole blues rock
Would the behringer 10g be good for playing metal?
Kids are lucky these days!
Looks cool these amps 👍💲
Behringer do they sell spare parts for their gear. In the past they used they say go and buy a new one that's not very green
they sound fine and dont be put off by the snobs kids be gratefull and enjoy music and learn to record it and share it with people who cant
I think many of us have lost sight of the FUN in playing music. It's why I started playing! (well, fun and meeting girls)
just a shame they didn't put an effects loop on the amp at least the 40 watt
The one the Captain's playing sounds awful, Pete's one is not so bad.
This.
because he uses an expensive guitar on a cheap amp that's why it doesn't match the sound. LOL!
@@markerviedejesus not anymore actually. They did a video pretty recently where they made new pedalboards with cheap pedals and said they were only using budget gear with budget gear from now on, which is why they’re both playing squiers here
better off practising unplugged
I mean, we're talking about a 50 quid amp with a 6" speaker.
I think you can do a video: cheap amp -> expensive cab and the other way around.
18:10 it is impossible to hide intention to play some Pantera
Where do I get a Purple Classic Vibe?
