(Has anyone heard of Gallien Krueger amps, and know if they're any good?)

# Beauty.
I shall have to go and have a plink through one- I'm not too keep on buying an amp that I've never played through although I risked it with my bass and she's a beast, bless her.

# They're really good
studio quality amps - their big thing is their lightweight construction. I'd go for a Marshall though - but I'm an old fart who's no longer 'down wit' t'kids'

# I don't like Marshalls though, they're overpriced for what they are
Well, in my humble opinion anyway. I'd love a mesa,vader or crate but I'm having to budget myself a bit. I've seen a behriger www.thomann.de/gb/behringer_bx4410a.htm which sounds very reasonable (alu cones, etc) but I know they're a bit of a shitty make and as I'm importing I really don't want to faff about getting it then deciding it's crap.

And I've never ever played through a GK. but I need to be as loud as possible, as I've got one guitarist who's about to upgrade to a big vader cab, one with a laney that knocks your ears off and a drummer who seems to have something against his kit to contend with.

Sorry, I'll stop droning now.

Oh, and the one who's getting a vader cab uses an old 5150 head on it, just to make himself FUCKING LOUDER.

# Regarding the behringer...
I'm always wary of amps with too many features and gimmicks crammed in. The worst amp I ever owned was a Peavey with about 1001 effects/features on board - none of which sounded decent. My favourite amp is my little marshall guitar amp, with precisely 0 features (beyond an overdrive pre-amp and EQ's) that sounds sweet as a nut for both electric and electric-acoustic stuff.

Sounds like you need an amp that goes up to 11.

# Pre-fucking-cisely.
Thing is I don't really want to sound sweet, more the echoic metallic rumble of the footfalls of Hades himself..... that sort of wank.

I need to sound nice and roundy and clean at the beginning of most tracks (bass takes care of that, bless her www.thomann.de/gb/spector_q4_pro_mbs.htm ), but then I need an amp with enough power to pack me forward when I'm overdriven instead of making me sound like someone jumping on a black bin sack.

*sigh* it's gonig to have to be something like the big hartke I've been looking at. It's a beast.

# I've had some Beringher kit before (not guitar stuff though)
In summary - slightly cheap feel (as you'd expect) 'not bad' quality, but usually great features.

# See I do like features, I like to piss about and see what comes out
And with us being quite progressive I've got room to manouevre with effects....


Hmmmm.

I may have to ask my father in law, he's a bass lord.

# I've got a Behringer mixer
I'm very happy with it, very little noise.

Thinking about it, I've got a sample rate convertor from them which is a beauty.

Where did you hear they weren't a good make?

# My father's played through a couple, plus they're dirt cheap.
But then he's a blues guitarist so he's not meant to use a bloody amp.
