    "The Best Bang for you Buck, Look all you want to, or just get it on with it now."

    This reviewer purchased this item from Same Day Music.

    Feature:
    Could have used a midi setup and directions. I have read that a midi foot control opens the amp up more, but haven't heard that in person

    Quality:
    I think it has the same great looks of a Fender. Any thing over 50 pounds should have wheels. The control knob section is very plain and dark. You need a lot of light to see to adjust between settings. Small bins in the open back would be handy. How about adiing a volum control to the foot pedal. Or even an extended control panal like the foot pedal but with knobs for all controls.

    Value:
    Seems as though to buy any thing of equal or near this amp one would have to pay 2 to 4 times the price being asked for this amp. I bought the amp because of what ti does and because of the price. If it where to cost more I would still be looking.

    Desirability:
    I think the looks of this product is plain. It has a very dark look. The features are great, but if you didn't know about them you couldn't tell by looking at it. Unless you had done some home work or had some one else share information about it, and you just walked up to one, it would just look like any other amp.

    Sound:
    I am fairley new at playing the Guitar. I had a pretty fair 30 watt amp. I thought. All the playing I did payed off the minute I plugged into my new Behrangerger. The amp does matter. I have 4 electric guitars. They all sound great now and my playing is 100% more enjoyable.

    Overall:
    I bought this in hopes of being satisfied for at least 5 years. Now a days 2 years is a long time for electronics. I build a new PC every 2 years. I was looking for a different amp than the 1st one i bought with in 30 days. I am already checking into the Vamp 2. but mostley just curious right now. I like the midi conection it seems to have. But not sure if I would gain much by getting one.

    "Power? Digital effects? Reliability? The Behringer Ultratwin GX212's got it all! Sounds as good as a Marshall half stack! Wi"

    Feature:
    I really love the digital effects and for sure it's power! This thing can out-play any drummer. The footswitch is great, only it could be bigger! All in all excellent features. A+!

    Quality:
    This was made to sound it's greatest and has been known for years of reliability! It's fully put together so you can just start having fun as soon as you get it! This amp comes in perfect condition and you would definatly want to take this amp with you to a friends house, or even live gigs! This thing will blow you away!

    Value:
    Definatly worth the price! This can be a great travel amp for gigs, or a guitarists first "serious" amp. If you buy this amp you won't have to buy another one for years!

    Desirability:
    Oh man, I was searching for a good amp with some power that would last me a while. I must have went through 20 amps before I saw and heard this one with all of it's features. I saw it's price and I had to have it! Now I'm getting it for christmas and can't wait to play it!!!

    Sound:
    Sounds great! The money is definatly worth the quality! It has plenty of power (120 watts), two 12"speakers, digital effects. This babeys got it all! It's the best sounding amp i've ever played on. Definatly a must buy!

    Support:
    The companies I talked to were so friendly and helped me with anything you need. They told me how long the warranty was when I didn't know, how many digital effects there were, and how many watts it had total. You've got questions, they've got answers.

    Overall:
    Unless I decide to get really seriousat playing guitar, I think I'm going to have this amp for years. I love the 2 12" speakers, the power of 120 watts, and definatly the digital effects and it's beautiful sound that comes out. The Behringer Ultratwin GX212 is the cheapest amp with these features you will find brand new!

    "BUYER BEWARE!"

    Feature:
    This amp came with a footswitch and owners manual.

    Quality:
    Cosmetically, it's beautiful. You can get a lemon in anything. Hopefully this is an isolated incident. It's too early to pass judgement on Behringer.

    Value:
    Compared to other amps with similar features, I thought this was a bargain. What is cost me to ship it back, I really didn't save anything.

    Desirability:
    Waiting for replacement. The first one burned up in two weeks. Hopefully the new one will be okay. I guess one of the selling points that convinced me to buy this amp, was the DSP effects, and the price.

    Sound:
    I have been impressed with the quality of Behringer products. I recently purchased a Ultratwin 212 online and it arrived by UPS. Those guys sometimes get pretty rough with handling things. Upon taking the amp out of the box and trying it out, the effects never worked since day one. Not being totally familiar with this amp, I read the owners manual to see if I was doing something wrong. I wasn't. About two weeks later, I turned on the amp and it began to crackle and hum. Smoke rolled out of the back and it was fried. I'm not sure if it got bounced around during shipping, or if something was defective. Whatever the case, it's cooked WELL DONE! The seller has agreed to exchange it for me. I shipped the old one back at my expense, and I'm waiting for the new one. Hopefully this one will be okay. Of the reviews I have read, it's hard to get response to warranty problems. The Behringer company is in Germany. I have a Behringer 4-12 speaker cabinet and I love it. As for their amps, mixers, etc. I think I will stick with a USA made brand.

    Support:
    I have not dealt with Behringer direct. They are located in Germany. The seller has agreed to exchange it. That's about the best I can expect. I did have to pay shipping to send it back, but he's paying shipping to send me the new one.

    Overall:
    If this amp were lost or stolen, I would defineatly not buy another Behringer. I have been a Fender man for years, but there are plenty of other good amps out there. Crate, Peavey, Ampeg, Roland, Randall,and Yamaha, just to name a few. I have owned them all, and they are all good.
