Behringer GM110 Combo

this is an updated review to the one i did on 08/21/03.

today at rehersal, I went to plug in my amp and turn it on. however, when I flipped the switch, there was no response. the LED did not come on, and there was no sound coming from the speaker. I unhooked and rehooked the power cord from the amp, and also from the wall, and tried it again. still, no response. I tried several wall outlets and i unplugged and plugged in everything imaginable, and it still would not work. In frustration and grief, I plugged into our drummers' 20 watt rogue GSR-20.

I brought my amp home to see what the deal was, and I could not for the slightest bit figure out what was wrong. nothing was loose, the jacks were all connected; I even plugged it to the same wall outlet that I always have it plugged into my room for practice. STILL, no dice. This leads me to believe that behringer products have a limited lifespan, and this one's heart just quit beating.

six months, $100, and alot of fun gone...just like that. I'm still debating whether I should go out and purchase another one or not...I still stand strong that there is no other amp out there like this for the price range. however, if you're hoping that this amp will outlast you, keep laughing. apparently it seems i'm not alone on this amp reliability issue.

great amp, great price, and traditional behringer unreliability. what more could you ask for?

The GM110 has numerous ouputs for headphones, PA, loops. One channel - the analog options have been covered well in previous ratings. Want reverb? Echo? Just add your own.

I play mostly fingerstyle through a Stromberg jazz box and a late 80's American tele with a quarter pounder neck pickup. Styles of interest include classic jazz, travis/atkins picking, blues, This amp covers them all. I get some great clean jazz sounds out of the California and Fender clean settings. The distortion is highly definable - more on the bluesy side than metal. The British tone emulates my Marshall Artist 30 watt tube amp well. The amp has nice tone response - the bass response is great considering the size of the amp.

So far so good - I read about a few problems in the reviews but overall the reliability looks pretty good. Thus far I'm not dissapointed but if it breaks I'll probably be singing another song. I tend to play the amp at low volumes.

Don't know - bought from American Music Supply with a 1 year warrenty.

This is an amazing little amp for the price. I would definitely buy another one - for the price I think I could have one in each room of the house. I really like the amp's range of tones, small size and 30 watts (instead of 10 or 15). My goal in buying this amp was to be able to get everything from the car to gig in one load. This amp does the job.

Update to previous review

Still sounds good on most settings

OOPS!
The 'tweed' setting has died. I didn't use it. Tried it once when I bought the amp, then left it alone. Decided to try it again, and whollop. Switch to tweed and instant silence from the amp. Not good.
Not hugely happy with that. I didn't use it, so won't really miss it. It did make some funny smells when it was used at full tilt for an hour. I put that down to lacquer burning off the components. It hasn't done it since.

The amp has a two year warranty, but claiming on it seems to involve tying your left testicle in a red ribbon, chanting phrases of allegiance to the moon on a cloudless evening whilst dancing with an inflatable shark. Shop say 'Behringer' Behringer say 'Shop' Shop say send it back to us and we will get it repaired. I say send me a replacement on reciept of the faulty unit, shop go quiet....
I'll no doubt get frustrated and fix it myself. Firstly, it will be quicker. Secondly, I'll get to know the PCB, so may be able to mod it :-)

Playing for longer than I'll admit to. I doubt I'll buy Behringer again as my next amp -must- be suitable for loud live work as well as practice and I cannot have an amp fail live. That has happened to me, and it was bloody embarrasing.
This little amp does sound fantastic though, so I'll persevere.

This amp is WONDERFUL for recording when you have neighbors. I can run the fx out direct to my outboard soundcard with great results. Even the clean sound compresses enough before distortion that I don't need to compress or limit anything. I don't know what everyone's beef is with the quiet clean setting. I usually have it on fender>hot>u.k. with the gain up about 1/4 and bass 50% mid 80% and treble 100%. with my duo-sonic guitar, this makes a comprimise between small amounts of distortion when i dig in, and maximum volume. then i kick in my boss sd-1 on full volume, 1/8 gain for a boost into absolute raunch-rock. another tip: tune the big E down to a low A. turn amp to california, gain switch low, no speaker sim, all eq up all the way and gain knob up all the way. the a on a octave thing makes the coolest sound i've ever heard.

I've never had a single problem with this amp, which is making me like tubes a little less.

Don't be afraid to gig with this little thing. I used it at the Crocodile in Seattle, and it sounded awesome cranked through the monitors.

Bought new in 2004 - you can get the scoop from the other reviews or the Behringer website. Best feature on this amp is that it is 100% ANALOG - not digital, the effects loop, XLR out, and it's small size... I Wish it had reverb & channel switching - but what do you want for $99? This is a SHAMELESS ripoff of Tech21's T10, so shameless that I had to email Tech21 and apologize for buying this... I felt so dirty I had to go take a shower... But until Tech21 comes out with something between 10 & 60 watts there's not much I can say!

Main reason for getting this amp is so I have a smaller amp to take to smaller gigs. I use the effects loop in to bypass the preamp when playing live, my Tech21 Tri-AC and Yamaha DG stomp handle the front end. I really don't know how you can use this live since there's no channel switching unless you only use one sound per song.

The sound on this amp is terrific! Like I said before I really only wanted a 30 watt amp with a speaker, but the preamp is really outstanding. If you're a beginner I really can't think of a better learning/practice amp. Forget the fancy FX amps, get one of these and an inexpensive multi-FX for the loop.

I usually HATE not playing with reverb, but I was surprised how much I didn't miss it on this amp. Still had a full sound with good resonance. The range of sounds on this amp are astounding. I agree with others that the clean lacks volume. Gets heavy enough for anyone but total thrashers. Can do jazz, contemporary, blues, hard rock and even lots of metal. This still has some of that "small amp" sound & feel to it which I really like - I don't really know how to describe it but it's a nice difference from my larger amp.

For me volume was the most important consideration - and there's enough power here to play smaller gigs. Other brands charge more than this for the cheesy 10-15 watt models - this one will take most of us into rehearsal/small gig territory with no trouble. Given the price of $99 bucks I'll give this one a 10 for sound!

I was a bit scared of buying this given Behringer's less than great reputation in the reliability department - but I think this amp is an exception since it's so simple & straightforward. The latest amps coming out from Behringer have this circuitry with FX built in. Somehow I doubt they'll be as reliable. Get the plain GM110 and an inexpensive SEPARATE FX unit for the loop - you can't go wrong!

Sperken ze deutche? For $99 just get another one - it will cost less than the long distance to Germany.

Been playing 18 years. I love cheap gear that gets the job done well - and this is a welcome addition to my pile of gear. I'd get another one (or two or three) if something happened to this. Again, lack of channel switching will prevent me from using the preamp live, but that's the only serious drawback for me. For a practice amp/beginner amp you just won't get better tone for 3x the price.

2003 model. 30 watt practice amp. One channel, gain and volume, 3 band eq. Selector switches for 3 amp simulations, 3 amp modes and 3 speaker simulations. Headphone out. FX Loop. Speaker out, direct out with ground lift.

For #79, this is the most versatile practice amp out there, bar none. It's an excellent facsimile of a real tube amp: clean volume is limited but tone is sweet, marshall and mesa boogie emulations are versatile and easy to use. It's difficult to make this amp sound bad, regardless of what you plug into it. My guitar collection goes from the low-powered and scratchy (Godin Radiator) to the very loud (Peavey Wolfgang QT) and this amp sounds good with them all. Excellent speaker simulations and good quality direct output for recording.

It's as solid as any other amp in this price bracket, no worries.

Behringer website is helpful, dealer was excellent. No complaints.

The best practice amp on the market. If you were being picky you'd ask for channel switching... but this is a gem for the money. If you want channel switching buy two and an A/B box...!

And now for something completely different...
I'm a bassist by preference but tinker with home recording and guitar playing. That said, my electric geetar is an $80 Rougue with double humbuckers... super cheap but it works for my needs. I didn't want to spend a big ol' wad -o- cash on a secondary amp but I needed it to sound good for recording. Enter the GM110, compliments of my lovely wife and Christmas gift-giving.

To my seasoned ears this thing sounds incredible! Sure, it's not on par with a Line6 Vetta but it's easily equal to most $250 amps in terms of sound quality.

Now for the big surprise. I recently took this to a wee soiree because I didn't want to lug my SWR Workingman's 15 halfway across the state. As the GM110 has an open back and only a 10" speaker backed by 30 watts I was hoping that my bass wouldn't sound like melted margarine and that at least I would be able to hear it if I cranked it and stood in front of the cabinet. To my immense surprise not only did it cut through clearly at half volume but it had a very impressive sound! This, mind you, was on clean. As someone mentioned before, the clean setting is much lower in volume that any of the distortions, possibly my only beef with this.

The only OTHER warning (for this price it can't be a compliant) is that acoustic instruments run through the GM110 tend to sound a bit muffled, making me think there is some built-in compression. I've tried both a baritone ukulele with a transducer (no, I'm not quite right in the head) and a mid-level acoustic guitar. They didn't sound bad, just not clear and open as I had hoped. I'll be pushing my accordion through it soon (with a similar transducer on the chord-side) but I'm not expecting a miracle.

So.... a 9 or 10 for electric instruments (and a baritone ukulele with distortion counts) and a 6 or 7 for acoustic.

I'd buy another one within a month if this one was stolen by garden gnomes.

Just purchased new, so probably 2003 vintage. I'm just picking up after 30+ year layoff, and wanted a versatile amp to play around the house or gig with friends, but didn't want to spend much. After web research, I decided on this model, and am very pleased. This is an analog 30 watt modeling amp (10" Jensen speaker) that emulates three major amp styles: Mesa Boogie, Marshall and Fender, with a variety of speaker emulations. Has effects loop, DI, external speaker jack, etc. Many of the reviews I saw compared this to the Tech 21 Trademark 10, but at less than half the price. I didn't try a Tech 21, but I went on their website, and they have very useful sound downloads and amp presets, as well as some preset styles (such as AC/DC, Van Halen, SRV, Mesa Boogie, etc.) I decided to try those settings on the Behringer and, though I'm certainly no expert, this amp is amazing and the sounds it produces are spectacular considering the price. Only thing missing is reverb (on Tech 21), and the ability to change models with a pedal.

I'm playing a Squire Series 24, Model M77 (Les Paul/Guild Bluesbird style) with Duncan Designed humbuckers, mostly blues, Southern Rock. Since I've only had the amp for a few days, so I'm still experimenting, but using the Tech 21 settings mentioned earlier have really helped me dial in some great sounds without a ton of experimentation. This amp is so versatile that you can go from extremely clean to very distorted (for me, but I'm 54). Some of the other reviews I read weren't as complimentary about the distortion levels, but if you need more than this amp produces, just use an effects pedal.

Less than a week old, so I really can't judge yet.

Purchased from Musicians Friend, so I haven't had contact with Behringer yet. Hope I don't need them.

Played in a few garage bands as a teenager, but hadn't had an electric in more than 30 years until this Christmas. Other than the Squire M77 (Christmas present) mentioned above, I have a Takamine Jasmine acoustic/electric. Would I buy it again if it were stolen or lost? I'll have to see how it performs over time. But, based on preliminary use, I would definitely repurchase because of its flexibility. I'd love to hear if others have tried the Tech 21 Trademark 10 settings on this amp to see what other, more experienced players would think.

If you're reading this you probably know most of the features. From my standpoint the only thing this amp is lacking is reverb and the ability to switch sounds with a foot pedal (more than once I've tripped over my cord going from tweed to US

I bought this amp from zzounds based mainly on the reviews I've seen here and the wonderful dollar/value ratio. There are a couple of things I've found that I thought I should review though. As one user mentioned, the clean sound is significantly lower in volume than the others. I had been using an el cheapo Fender 15 I pulled from a garbage can and figured with 30 watts vs 15 I should be OK. Unfortunately on the clean settings I think this thing is probably closer to 5 watts. My Fender 15 was significantly louder. When I'm trying to compete with live drums, I may need to replace this amp or use the DI output into the PA.
The other thing that I find (maybe mine has a defect) is that the transition from clean to distorted is not always pleasant sounding. There seems to be some unharmonic distortion that is produced as you ease into distortion. This isn't a problem if you're well into the distortion but if you trying to play something with just a little bit of "edge" it can be unpleasant.
Overall, I am very pleased with the overall sound. To get this much of a sound pallete at this low price is amazing!

so far (3 months) no problems.

I would give this amp an 8 overall. If you're only going to be playing by yourself or in low volume situations it's probably more like a 9. If you're planning on gigging with it, and will use the clean sounds a lot, you'd better make sure you either can mic/DI it or are playing with a group of very quiet musicians who will wait as you readjust your volumes. You'll also wish you had some foot pedals. For this case I'd probably only give it an 7.

3 amp models.. 3 types of cabinets to work with the three amp models, XLR output for working with a mixer or recording at the board, headphone output that mutes the speaker, 8ohm output for driving an extra cab, and fx loop.. Perfect except you can't change amp models on the fly, but still killer! This thing rocks!

I'm using a custom shop built washburn guitar.. It was made in Chicago in the custom shop .. has two seymour duncans.. CC in the bridge and 59 in the neck.. It fits my musical style perfect.. It's a tad noisey on high high gain, but I attribute that to my guitar which probably isn't shilded as well as I'd like, but I'll solve that by buying EMG's which are dead quiet almost..

So far so good.. Seems tough.. Has a jenson speaker, and everythign is tough looking and designed well.. Real wood or playwood with metal corners, etc.. metal covering the back of the amp where the circuits are, etc..

Havn't used them yet and don't look forard to it.. We shall see..

I've been playing about 25 years on and off.. I'd buy another one in a minute. Would love to try the 2X12 version that I think they have since it's loud, but not quite loud enough to jam with a lound drummer! hehehe.. I've tried all of the modeling amps, and this one and the Tech 21 stuff is the best.. It's so because it's analog I guess.. I don't like the digital stuff and I'm a programmer.. They just don't have enough "Touch Factor" for the digital stuff..
I only wish it had a pedal to switch amp models and cab models.. and to switch gain models.. I also wish it had some reverb or delay maybe for solo's..

30 watts 10" speaker, amp modeling. NO CHANNEL SWITCHING, that sucks.

I play hearder rock to soft pretty numbers. I love the sound of this thing! The ability to change sounds is very cool, the sound you are looking for is always there. THe tweed is great for softer music, but the cali model with the brit eq is great for harder music.

Haven't played it enough to know. BUT I have a habit of sitting on my amps, since the controls are on the top I've destroied a few cords.

Never called them. But I think it has a year and a half warranty.

Love it, wish it was louder. UNBEATABLE PRICE (even new).

I've done a review before, now let's see what happened(suspense)...
No,it still works perfectly! I run this with a behringer ultraroc in stereo as power amps for my sansamp gt-2, or my acoustic. I like the fact that it is very quiet cos i let them run all day.
The sounds of this amp are very bad except for the clean settings, and the guilty one calls dynamizer. This circuitry ruins everything, it compresses all the time and nothing is usable, really.
So please buy something else except you will change the speaker, bypass the preamp and take big risks with the reliability of those vintagers... I also use a marshall mg15cdr and there is absolutely no comparison, believe me!

Behringer Vintager GM110, manufactured 2003. Made in the Far East.
Versatile?, Oh yes. I'm primarily a classic rock head with punk leanings. It fits perfectly thus far. Not had it long, doubtless GAS will set in again soon.
Single channel amp with effects loop, DI, external speaker, GND lift and headphone jack. Gain and level controls along with bass mid and treble. The neat bit is the amp modelling.. Non tube analogue amp.

Playing an SG, and it suits me best on British, hi-gain and UK settings for amp mode and speaker respectively. It sounds lovely. Creamy, at the point of distortion. Gentle picking produces a nice 'crackly' sound, bash harder and, well, tonight Jeremy, I -am- Angus Young ( in my dreams ). The clean side of things is remarkably clean, and the distortion can be pushed through just right to metal and beyond. I have no use for that much distortion.

Seems well built. Not had it very long so cant comment on that.
Better constructed than the Marshall MG15DFX it replaces.

Not had to use them. Doubt I'd get much from them. Rather not rate yet.

I really am blown away by it so far, and do not regret buying it.
I really like the sounds it helps me make. I like the control layout.
On my MG15DFX, the only effect I used was reverb. I kinda miss that, but will buy a reverb unit to use with it. Other than that, for its price, it wipes the floor with Marshall MG series if you just want sound, and the Marshalls sound superb. This is just one notch better if you'd rather have amp modelling and let your effects processor take care of the rest. At 30watts rated output, and being capable of driving an external speaker, I intend gigging with it.
So far, a solid 9 overall.

as everyone else has explained, great features for the money

well, im blown away, this amp should not sound this good for the money, but it does !!!, the clean channel is round and warm, the overdrives are sweet and respond well to pick attack, i cant believe it, i bought it for in the house but this amp is gonna earn its #89 on stage. i owned a tech 21 trademark 60 for a few years, this is (in my humble opinion) better to me, better harmonics and sustain,although the 60 was louder, but i never turned it up loud anyway. best money i have ever spent on gear.

havnt had it long, but it looks well built.

ive played for 23 years, owned some good gear and crap,ive been through the digital thing, valve amps, (which are great) but most people dont need more than this, i know of pro's playing out using little amps like this, hidden behing there marshall cabs (just for show). this amp has to be the bargain of the century, it seems a direct rip off of the tech 21 trademark 10, but costs a third of the money, if the tech 21 sounds better, it cant be much

I won't repeat what has been said again and again. I will just say that it's amazing the many features they managed to package and at this price! The only thing I'd love to see is a reverb, but with the FX loop I can just plug in my favourite FX-processor, so no worries. I don't like the fact that right above the headphone socket there's another similar socket for an external speaker... I don't think my headphones will like it very much if I plug into the wrong socket by mistake. The ext speaker socket should have been located elsewhere... but it's a minor niggle.
Top marks for features... connectability, wow...

I admit I haven't been using this amp too long, but I am amazed at how good it sounds. The tweed setting does some nice cleans. I haven't found the lovely tones other reviewers mention, maybe I haven't tried hard enough... I have a Fender Vibrochamp whose clean sound I rate highly, and the Behringer doesn't quite approach that. Both my Laney VC50 and Electar Century 60RD have better clean sounds... but then I chose those amps partly because of their clean sounds... and both have 12" speakers, so that may also contribute. Having said this, I am trying to be picky, the clean sounds are nice, don't get me wrong, just not amazing, in my opinion. Now, still in the tweed setting, we add more overdrive and use the hig gain setting, and my telecaster loves this, very bluesy... excellent sounds.
The British amp emulation (a la Marshall) is very well made. In the clean setting you get great crunch, AC/DC all the way! full body crunch that responds very well to picking dynamics. Then increase the drive and switch to hi-gain, and... well, it's the typical marshall rock sound you've heard in so many records. get your wah out and pretend you're Michael Schenker! :)
The California setting is very very thick, I haven't experimented a lot with this yet (I'm taken by the Marshall emulation) but I'd describe it as similar to the British one, but a bit less "angular". And thicker. It would do a good Santana.
I find I like best the British with the UK speaker setting, and the others with the US (unsurprisingly?) although the flat setting can be interesting to tame a bit the thickness in the California model...
So many good sounds in this amp, it deserves a 9. Even the headphone out sounds pretty decent, while in most amps it sounds just terrible!
It seems it can be quite loud if required, although not as much as I was expecting for a 30W amp. Both my 50W and 60W amps are noticeably louder, and there shouldn't be that big a difference. It's probably due to the speaker: it's sweet souunding, but probably not the most efficient type.
I got it for home use, and for that it's plenty loud, but it sounds also great at lower and neighbour-friendly volumes.

At this price... I'd imagine it doesn't use the best components... so time will tell how reliable it is. However, at this price, I'd just get out and buy another if it breaks after a few years. #80 new??? How do they do it???

I haven't contacted them personally, but one of their top guys came to our forum to answer some questions about another Behringer product and subsequently posted some very useful updates to the manual... plus they seem to listen, as some of the suggestions raised at the forun for improvements were addressed and publisehed within a few months. I was very impressed and left me a good feeling about the company and the way they look after their customers.

I've been playing for about 15 years and I've own a host of amps and stuff. There were no amps like this when I was starting, that's for sure. This is a dream. Sure, it is not the best sounding amp in the world, but to this ears it sounds pretty good... and at this price, suddenly it sounds a whole lot better! :) I love the sound of my valve Laney VC50, and even my Electar Century 60RD (change the speaker to a Celestion Century, and it's a new amp, try it!)... my Fender Vibrochamp is just so creamy, and beautiful clean sounds... But none of them can give me such range of GREAT sounds in one simple small package, compact, and light.
It's the ideal practice amp, with enough connection possibilities to expand it to recording/live direct into a desk/PA, the FX loop, external speaker socket... and no valves to die on you either :)
I bought it without trying, based on reputation and price alone (there are many pedals that cost more than this amp!) thinking that if I didn't like it I'd just eBay it... well, eBay can wait. And wait. And wait some more :)

brand new in the box, made in china. features have been listed in other reviews. the only usable setting i find is the tweed, clean, us setting. i play classic and modern blues, so this is fine. the british and calif settings are very noisey... sounds like a sick peavey rage. the speaker is crap, but usable for now until i can get a good one. 30w is enough power for what i am doing. reverb would be nice, but with the xlr out to the board this is no major issue. hey the little devil only cost 109.00.

i have one guitar, a stratocaster with stock pickups and an srv neck. it works well with my guitar on the clean setting, as i said the brit and calif settings are useless for my style. they are so bad i can't even call it "distortion" in a musical sense, noise is more the term. i love the sound on clean, so this is no problem for me. i use it wide open and control the tone and volume from the guitar.

seems very well built, for 100 bucks it is one of the best deals on the planet. it is new so i can't say how long it will last, but for the price of a stomp box, what do you want.

have had behringer mixers and never any trouble, if i need service i will go to the store i got it from, they treat me right every time.

i have been playing 35 years, have lots of amps, mostly older ones with tubes, fenders, marshalls, etc. it won't get lost or stolen, but i would buy one again. love the clean sound and the low price, hate the noise on all other settings. i have either had or used evey amp there is, so for me to buy this is a big compliment to behringer. needs a better speaker. i have used this amp at gigs with no problems being heard, we are a 3 piece unmiked blues band, except of course the vocals, mostly small 100-200 seat clubs.

Read the many positive reviews below for a good understanding of this amp's most prominent audio features. I'll instead make specific mention of the back panel, which is truly amazing at this price point. There are dedicated 1/4" jacks for effects-loop send & return, headphone and external speaker. There is a lo-z preamp-out XLR jack with its own Ground Lift switch. AC power is provided though a standard appliance-style recessed 3-prong jack so you can obtain a spare or replacement AC cable for a couple of bucks just about anywhere. Plugging into either the headphone or external speaker jacks mutes the internal speaker, which makes sense. You can also use the effects-send alone as a hi-z preamp-out instead of or in addition to the lo-z XLR preamp-out. You can use the effects-return alone to go directly to the amplifier stage, an uncommon but sometimes handy option. So not only is this a small combo that is musically versatile, it gives you tremendous control on how you direct its sound.

Like others, I really like the sound and feel of this amp. As noted below, this is a clone of Tech 21's Trademark 10, the amp version of their popular GT-2 amp-modeler stompbox. I have used a GT-2 regularly for years and while it's true that the GM-110 does sound different than the GT-2, it still sounds terrific in its own right. I actually prefer the GM-110's Speaker Sims to the GT-2's Mic Placement options.

I bought this amp solely for its clean sound (Tweed) but I've found many good distorted settings too. For $100 I'm not complaining, but a bit more sheen on the high end would make it absolutely sparkle. Also, there is a bit of built-in compression that I'm pretty sure is part of Behringer's "Virtual Modeling" approach to emulating tube amp feel. It's not in any way bad, I just wasn't used to it (since I usually run a compressor stompbox up front for clean playing).

The first time I ran this wide open for more than 5 minutes at a time I began to smell something electric. Not burning, just electric, like electric trains if you know what I mean. Since it went away, and nothing came of it, I'm betting that some component inside just got warm for the very first time and evaporated some unimportant filmy coating somewhere. Even so, it was unsettling, somewhat indicative that this particular unit never got an QC check at the factory. At this price it's probably cheaper for Behringer to just replace a defective unit rather than establish a QC process and who can blame them if that's the case? But because of this, I'd consider using this amp without a backup only after using it for several months, or maybe even years, without anything going wrong.

Behringer is a German company and, taking into account the location and time differences, makes me wonder if access to customer service will be difficult. Still, they have a good website and I'll give them the benefit of doubt that they would promptly respond to Emails from non-European owners. Otherwise, I have no opinion in this topic, and I hope I never do.

If it cost $200 this amp would be worth every penny to those who seek a good practice or recording amp. At $100 it's a no-brainer. Thanks to its well-implemented features I think nearly anyone can find some way to use it ? probably everyone reading this at some point paid more for a stompbox that they didn't use that much. 30 watts into a 10" Jensen speaker gives it a serious advantage over any combos employing an 8" speaker (even those with proud monikers like Orange, Vox and Tech 21). It gets even bigger when using a good extension speaker, I've tried it using a closed-back 2x12 and it approaches the point of being usable with a band. If this little number doesn't crap out after 5 or 10 years I'll consider it the smartest money I ever spent on equipment.

Quite a bit of features here. You have 3 different brackets of 3 selectable modes = 27 combinations of amp type, speaker type, and channel type. This also has a very good 3 band EQ.

I must say, for $99, I am certainly, profoundly surprised. This thing kicks out more power and better tone than ANY other Fender, Marshall, Peavey, or Crate amp in the $300 to $400 range. This thing sounds SOOO sweet on a Fender clean, and when you switch it to a dirty channel, you want to scream TONE.


Plenty of features, you'll have fun arranging the EQ and the amp combinations to get the sound you want.

I currently am using a couple different setups with this amp. Since I have no power supply, and 9v batteries are expensive, I have to preserve power by only plugging one or two effects in at a time. I either use a 1993 Fender Stratocaster or a 1973 Ventura SG Copy (my dad's) with a Boss SD-1 or some other modulation effects (EH Small Stone, Morley Wah, Boss CE-5, Dano Corned Beef Reverb, Zoom 505II).

Whether I use the Strat or the SG depends on what I'm playing. Some songs that I write have a Fender hard rock sound, and others have the crunch of an SG when there's some powerchords involved.

I have fallen in LOVE with the tone I get from this amp. The first couple months I had it, I threatened to sell it because I could not get a decent distorted tone out of it no matter how hard I tried. Soon I found that fiddling with the EQ and linking it with my Boss SD-1 gave it a kick in the pants that I'll never regret being curious for.


Here's the breakdown on what I can get from the selections I find most useful :


Fender (Tweed) -- Clean -- U.S. = A VERY VERY nice clean sound, it absolutely sparkles, and I bet any professional would have a very hard time distinguishing between the nice warm analog sound of this amp, and a $500 grade A Tube Amp. It sounds so tube-like, it's unbelieveable. But don't take my word for it, try it yourself.

Fender (tweed) -- Hot -- U.S. = I write more poppy slower-paced rock songs on this setting. It replicates that Fender clean "breaking up" sound perfectly. I can get a good Pablo Honey/The Bends era Radiohead tone with this setting and a Strat or a Tele. I usually have my Boss SD-1 linked to this, and when I get to the chorus, I kick on the SD-1 for more drive, and it is a TONE to *die* for. Once again, great setting. Mess around with the drive knob for more flexablility.


Marshall (British) -- Clean -- U.S. = Great setting for nice, hot, british drive. I don't use this as often as the others, but it has it's place.

Marshall (British) -- Hot -- U.S. = Here's where I bust out the SG. I almost cried when I tried this with the SG and the Boss SD-1 linked up. I thought single coils were good, but man, if you want stinging leads and CRUNCH for your rhythm, man oh man, do NOT hesitate! This was EXACTLY what I have been looking for, and I vow to never buy another dirt box unless I find something better than this, which I probably won't! Simply AMAZING for AC/DC Angus Young stuff, Van Halen, Thin Lizzy, or even good ol' early 90's alternative.


while I don't use the Mesa channel that much, I can describe it to you as a slightly more rounded off version of the Marshall channel. It has slightly more bass response and a thicker tone. Great distortion, but I find more tone in a british amp than a californian one.

Like I said, with a decent setup and this amp, you can get almost any tone you want. If you want SUPERIOR tone, take my advice and get a Boss SD-1...never have I had so much fun with a dirtbox before chaining these two together.

In other words, EXCELLENT SOUND once you tweak it and expirament with it. If you don't get the sound you want at first, hang in there...you'll get it. It took me 2 months to find my tone on this amp, and now I don't regret a single bit of it.

Built like a rock. The $99 price tag scares me though...an amp this good at that price just HAS to have some sort of issue...but, I have yet to find anything wrong with this amp. I've owned mine for 2 months and I bought it new, so we'll have to see.

Behringer is a German company. I've never dealt with them, and I'm sure they're hard to get ahold of. No Comment.

I've been playing for a little over a year and I own three guitars, and I use one of my dad's (the SG). I also use his Kustom 250 watt Head and Cab, but that thing has a tendency to squeal when you plug it in (I almost lost my hearing yesterday because it squealed...the kids outside could hear it). I have 6 effects pedals, because I'm a pedal geek.

This amp is simply AMAZING for all that it provides with it's astounding price tag. I would dare anyone who was skeptical to place this next to a $399 Marshall MGDFX 30 or 50 watt amp or a $369 Fender Blues Junior and see if they could tell the difference. And the best thing? It's ANALOG. Yes, WARM, THICK, FUZZY ANALOG sound. This shuts out every digital amp out there for tone. I doubt someone could tell the difference between this and a nice tube amp had they been blindfolded and not told which amp was being played through. That's honestly how good the tone is on this baby.

I get a REALLY nice clean sound with my Fender Stratocaster, and I'm going to replace the pickups with some '57 reissues as soon as I can buy a soldering iron. After that, I will be LOADED with tone. Okay, so maybe I'll buy a Fender '72 Reissue Thinline Tele and a Gibson Les Paul. Then I'll have all I need for years to come.

An Amp like this proves that you don't need to spend a fortune on botique gear to get the sound you want. May I say it again? TONE, TONE, TONE.

Man, o, man, this is one hell of an amp. Like all the others mentioned, the three main simulations, three mode and three speakers are absolutly amazing. I can get the squeeky clean sound, to the down and dirty blues sound, to the crunch of the bri-rock sound. it's just great.

30 watts, about 20 lbs.

The sounds are absolutly perfect. I won't need a distortion pedal ever to fit the distortion i want. I have enough with the 27 possable amp combinations and the wide gain range. I didnt find any problems with buzzing or anything near the computer. no gripes with the clean sound (no gain, tweed, clean, flat).

I havn't gigged with it yet, but im pretty sure it can handle most of the venues i play, by myself or with the band. I am pleased with what i got as a practice amp. No maintainance needed.

Dunno, i never had a problem.

Best possable amp for $100. It's 30 watts of sound for $100. That it an amazing value in itself. Ontop of that, you have all the sounds you want from a single amp. It emulates three classic amps and with the gain, you can get all the distortion you could ever want for rock n roll.

mmm,looks a lot like tech's stuff, only it has no reverb(the trademark 10 has not a good one,so...). It is well done, pretty, and convenient:fuse accessible without tools, fx loop, xlr di out. 100% analog, good for the tone. One channel only, 3bd eq(quite effective) and a very low price:-)

I use humbucking guitars, or acoustic jazz box. I like gutsy clean sound and savage drive, and smooth acoustic tone. This amp delivers, it is versatile, has a very effective equalizer. I own a gt-2 for years,and I was curious for a comparison. Well, it's not the same by far. The gt-2 sounds better, more natural, more drive options, more alive, far better except for the clean sound. The behringer is tighter and more modern style, and it's eq so effective. I mean, with a good clean sound you just put your favorite distortion box and you have the perfect amp! I use a korg classic overdrive and it is amazing, and with my sans amp classic it's even better. What more do you want? I have to state this is a very quiet amp, no background hiss at all, but I use it on a clean setting. The drive settings are far too synthetic and heavy (impossible to have a SRV sound with it), and frankly horrible. Get a gt-2 if you like this very design.
No mark because 10 for the clean and nothing for the drive settings.

No tubes, not much components, big PSU, I have it 9months now and it works perfectly. I use the clean setting so I dig more in it and it stands well. I also own, or have owned, a lot of their products and never had a problem. I hope not to have any,

...because their support is a big big joke. And a bad one. I mailed them without getting any answer, and the only time I got one it was completely off subject. Behringer sucks, period

I play since around15years, mostly electric 7strings(since 92) and fretless bass.I think this amp is a fine choice I made, I replaced the speaker to suit my needs. I put a danelectro corned beef reverb in the loop and it sounds very organic, particular... With a digitech digiverb the sound gets thinier, not good at all so back to the dano.
With my acoustic I just plug it in my zoom 504 mark2 and in the return of the loop and it sounds very good.
The only complaint I have is that the level needed to drive the power amp("return"socket) is high so you have to put a powerful device to get the maximum headroom available.
Yes, I would purchase it again, given its price

This amp is absolutely loaded with features, probably some 40ish features... there are 99 presets, but many of them are like different types of an effect... slow delay, medium delay, fast delay, etc. Its plenty versatile, and it feels loud for a 30 watt amp. has two channels, has channel switching on footswitch along with effect button. One gripe is between going from clean to distortion there is a slight delay, like a click for it to hit, its not instant. I dont use a bunch of the features, but some features i really like such as cabinet stack simulations. I am mainly a bedroom player with this thing.

I use this with a PRS Tremonti and with any practice amp, it sounds kinda weak. Im really into Mesa Dual Rectifiers, but for a practice amp, I got this. The distortion sounds the same pretty much with any guitar youll put into it, and the clean is alright, nothing special, but not bad. The clean channel will distort at higher volumes, and the distortion gets crappy sounding at higher volumes. The distortion is nice though, if you adjust it right.

I have never has a problem with it, solid state amp...

never dealt with...

Ive been playing 3 years, and heres my rig: PRS Tremonti - Shure Diversity Wireless Guitar System - Mark Tremonti Power Wah - Behringer Ultraroc GX110. If it were lost or stolen, I might try a different practice amp. One thing I learned, is that amps with built in effects are not all they seem to be. Do not be swayed by built in effects when buying amps, look more for better distortion sounds. Chances are you wont use majority of your effects, except for line 6 stuff, they have good built in effects, but otherwise, try not to be swayed by amps having built in effects. I love its distortion sounds when its dialed in right, but I hate how it sounds at higher volumes. I compared it with the Crate 15 watt model, and I choose this one because of the effects. Now im not sure which I would have rather gotten. For a practice amp, consider this thing or some cheap crate amps, but for bedroom playing, its not a bad deal. Feel free to email me with any questions.

Bought new from American Musical Supply 7/03,came factory-sealed, double boxed. This review is written in context that (a) I use it primarily for writing and demos in a home recording studio and (b)the amp is designed and intended to be a practice amp, but obviously also a recording amp, or to be plugged thru a PA-board or slave into an amped cabinet if you wanted to gig with it somewhere bigger than a small club/bar, or your band rehearses in a live set-up or at ear-bleed levels. A couple a reviews said they use the Phones out as a line-out for recording. I tried this and got nothing but a distorted lo-gain signal, with an instro cable or a stereo,or a TRS cable. Wouldn't get a clean signal in my Mackie 1402VLZ board. I'll try to find out from Behringer if there's something wrong, but I don't really care, because the D.I. is the bomb anyway, so to play and record silently, I just plug phones in anyway to kill the speaker, and go with the phones from my board,or my studio monitors at low volume. If you want to send the Lo-Z to a 1/4" input,like on a Tascam or Fostex 4-tack, get a $20 transformer from Radio Shack. It's a mic-level signal, so for a digital recorder with a lo-z in, go there,if you don't mess going thru a board.

I was attracted by the price/features factor. The Vintager GM-110 is exactly what I need, at an incredible C-note price. Nothing comes close: 30 watts, 10" speaker vs. the usual 15w/8" for 100 bucks or so.

This puppy uses a matrix of 3 amp models, 3 speaker sounds, and 3 gain modes, with a Drive control to 'tune' the senstivity of your ax's PUP's to the pre-amp stage, followed by bass-mid-trebs that are really active filters, true volume controls for each of the frequency ranges, affecting the overall preamp volume before the master level. It all adds up to an incredible tone-generator tool that you customize to match whatever guitar you plug in, electric or acoustic, hot humbuckers, vintage PAF's, strat, tele single coils, whatever.

For recording or board/slave use, the Lo-Z D.I. w/ Ground Lift on this amp is indispensable. Taps out post-fx loop, which is another feature I wanted, since I didn't want or need the half-baked digital fx other amps in this class pack; I have all of those I need, fully operative versions, outboard. And if you do, why would you want to practice without your gig set-up,other than that hernia-inducing amp/stack? And, the D.I. doesn't mute the speaker (the headphone and/or speaker outs do), so you can still mic this guy as well, for big, big sound, live or recorded) or stage-monitor with it. No reverb,if you have outboard fx, not needed. The only thing it lacks as a practice amp is aux-in to practice with a tape or cd; not an issue for me, I can put that thru my board w/ the amp. But that's not practical for most folks. No channel switching? For home recording, not an issue. Maybe for gigging. Maybe. The fx-loop creates some options if ya think about it. Again: Practice/home use Amp by design and intent.

The amp is really well-built, the open back exposes the 10" Jensen to danger, but hey...if you wanna take this out to gigs, use some of the dough you saved and get a case or cover for it. Metal corners won't crap out like most amps crummy plastic ones, and it's nice-looking, if you care about that, like maybe to impress your girl (or boy) friend, or if your pad lacks decor and you're going for a 60's theme.

After 40 years, I have an arsenal of every 6 & 12-string electric (even a lap steel) and acoustic/electric (even a lap steel and nylon string, but no 7-string, although there's a Muscimaster short-scale bass in there)type that covers most guitar sounds from the 60's and beyond, styles basically rock,r&b,country, anything but metal, thrash. That said, I'll try to summarize the amp/spker/gain matrix's versatility: it handles everything I do, and some I didn't think I would.

Personally, I stick mostly to the Tweed (Fender)/Clean, and depending on the guitar, the US 2x12 open cab or UK 4x12 closed. The 'Flat' spker is the Jensen, but really,I think it's the 'uncolored' preamp with the D.I. You get pristine clean at low drive, and start to get crunch/dirt at about 10-12 o'clock, depending on the PUP's of the ax. As a review or 2 have said, Tweed seems to lack some high end treble. I'd read that, and what I thought would work to fix that does, like a charm: plug an EQ into the fx loop as first one, before any delay or mod. I use a 20 yr-old blue MXR 10-band. With this, you just tweak whatever frequency you still think needs some boost or cut at the pre-amp stage. (Try this with any amp, peeps...).

Another trick I found is a compressor(MXR Dyna-comp, again, vintage, analog)just after the EQ in the loop). That said, I also found I don't think I need it. This amp, analog and so 'tube-like' in the natural harmonics and dynamic response to your attack syle that I think, as another reviewer said, there's tubes hiding in there. I think the lack of treble thing is due to the amp's 'warmth' and 'body'. There is no solid-state shrillness to the distortion (is that why it's not a 'thrasher's amp'?).

The Brit (Marshall) setting barks, snarls, growls, especially with the UK spkr setting. Even on 'clean',with Drive cranked. In fact, even with Drive all the way down,w/ Single coils, you won't get a glassy clean sound, there's a touch of edge. Marshall? Go to 'Hot' or 'Hi-gain' with this and depending on where you put the 'Drive' and your EQ's, you'll get all the distortion, smooth or hard, you want.

The Calif (Mesa) setting is the best I've tried, because all the digital versions of this seem to just go to the rectified distortion end of things. This one, you can get Carlton to Santana. Just mess with the matrix, your guitar's PUP's, vol and tone, too.

For all/any of the settings: the EQ's are active, and react tightly to just slight adjustments. If you try hard enough, you'll find what you want.

Naturally, at the max drive/gain settings, there's some hiss. But if you're up there, how ya gonna hear it above the din?

Only had this a week. I'm not worried. It seems rugged enough, lacks all the digital computerized garbage that will crash and burn,so I think it's going to be less likely to self-destruct than those types of amps. I don't gig out anymore,except for a jam session here and there, fill-in/sub stuff. I'm juut an old fart retired warhorse that's teaching his kids and grandkids to play, and write and play to maintain my sanity,what's left of it. I use it at home, I treat my stuff with care. I've got ancient sutff around here that still works like new. I'll give it an 8 here, just 'cuz my crystal ball is foggy at the moment.

Lots of knocks about Behringer in other reviews, and I don't care. I bought this from AMS because they add a 2nd year to the mfr's warranty at no charge. The boxes are in my garage. If it breaks, which I doubt, they'll handle it. If it dies after 2 years, I'll have gotten my $99 worth, I'll find another one, but I'll bet it will cost more than $99 bucks.

I think I covered just about everything in the other areas. Just add: I looked at every amp I could in the $100-$250 range, with $150 or less my goal. Nothing by Peavey, Fender, Crate, Zoom, Marshall, Roland, Ibanez, Kustom, Yamaha matches this for a simple to operate, pure tone generating workstation for the foundation of your sound, with 30 watts, 10" Jensen, Lo-Z D.I., FX loop, Speaker Out, and Phones out, not at any price, let alone 100 bucks. The only one is the Tech 21 Trademark 10. The brand name snob appeal and reverb, with lower power, aren't worth $150 to me. Roldand's Cube 30 ($225) has the 30w and 10" spker, good modeling, but the FX are gimmicks and useless to me. I 'grew up' playing through tube Fenders (Deluxe, Twin, Super, Tremolux, Bandmaster), and later had a Peavey Mace in the late 70's. 'Retired' 20 years ago, sold all those (dumb shit). I've 'suffered' thru a stream of solid state 'practice' or small gig amps, Fenders,Peaveys Marshalls, even Crates since then. Nothing was 'verstile' enough. Until this amp, searching for 'the holy grail' to record with, I'd gotten a DigiTech Genesis 1 Desktop modeler for $99, and that's not bad, and it's dumb enough with knobs instead of readouts and programs for me to handle, but there's still some weaknesses. My recorder (Boss BR-532) has digital COSM models, again, not the worst, but I hate the rocket science, and neither of those, while OK for the studio, are practical to gig with, what little I do. But I'm not about to shell out $250 bucks With this Vintager GM-110, I got just what I needed and wanted. Say it again: for 100 bucks!

This amp has all the necessary features I ask for in an amp, plus some.

I use this amp for a cover band.
There are many great sounds in this amp. Sounds range from country to blues to classic metal.
There is a bit of hiss on some settings, but I've never seen an amp that didn't have some hiss or buzz.
My only gripe is the Tweed settings on Clean are a little low on the volume. The sounds are great, just much softer than any other setting.

This amp's sounds are geared more toward classic stuff. Nu metal freaks should look elsewhere. This amp is more "old fart" oriented.

I give this amp's sounds a 10. This is far and away the best small amp I've ever owned.

So far so good. The control panel seems to be mounted a little flimsy, but who knows. For the classic sounds and the power/weight ratio, I'll cope with it.

The handle seems a little weak, too. I'll replace it with a beefier one if it breaks.

A 5 for the unknown reliability factor.

I don't know how the support is. I have to show respect to any company that can make a cool product for such little money.

5 again for the "middle of the road."

I've been playing for 17 years or so. I own some really expensive stuff and I own some cheap stuff. I'm not a gear snob.

If this amp was stolen, I'd get another before Behringer starts charging more.

The sounds and the features sell this amp. The only thing I don't really like is the weak handle and the slightly lower volume on one setting.

IMO, this is the best small amp going. It's very flexible, but you have to work for it. Easy with the EQ knobs, they seem to be active filters and make huge variations in sound with just small adjustments. The sounds have great dynamics. Work your playing technique to vary the sound/feel. This is not a thrasher's amp. This amp, like other good amps needs to be worked by the player to get the sweet sounds out of it.

This blows all other amps in this price range out of the water. Hell, it blows out amps three times the cost!

Let me copy and paste a review from somebody a couple months ago:

Here is where things become interesting. In paper, this amp has much potential and can deliver many tones. In practice, the amp is rather limited. First of all, some of the settings are extremely quiet with no volume at all, making them almost unusable. Clean sounds are very nice, and the amp responds dynamically to your playing. Thanks to the good quality speaker, you get very clear, crystal sound. However, when you set drive to 10 you realize that the amp just won't get dirty. Distortion is too weak and disappointing for any aggressive playing, as a matter of fact even a digital modeller through the effects loop will not sound ok, something which I would attribute to its natural lack of sustain. With 2 of the 3 amps I tried extensively, I also noticed something very annoying: When pushing the amp into distortion, its circuit gets mad and starts giving very annoying sound artifacts. For example, after a few notes at the 12-15 fret space I would get something like a static sparkle, while a hammer-on at 7-10 fret space would end into a horrible hollow sound like wind blowing through a broken window. The 3rd amp I tried would not show exactly this behaviour, but was "almost there"


While things sound better through a good distortion pedal like Metal Zone, this amp shows a luck of sustain, while the sound feels too compressed and tight, as if they tried to push its sustain as far as they could.


Simply put, my impression is that the analog modelling implimented in this amp cannot cope with heavy distortion. This makes it pretty useless for me, but others who prefer clean styles have found it excellent.


Anyway, I believe this amp is handicapped in some way. When I first listened to it, I was impressed as its clean sounds are really brilliant. Upping drive also gives you good sounds, but still not distorted. Then, after playing with it for a few days, you realize sound is too compressed and the first impression wears out.

The handle (rubber+threads) got torn apart after minimum use.

Contacted the support team (e-mail). Let's see how well they respond.

See other reviews - this has been very well covered before. A 9 for extremely complete connections (speaker out, effect loop and emulated headphone output + XLR output ... for 117 ? ??? incredible) but less sound options than expected (was expected much though ;-).
Oh, and cute too.

Guitars used: Fender Telecaster HMT, Blade R4 with Lace Sensor Hot Golds, Washburn HB35 with Seth Lovers, DeArmond M75T and Gordon Smith .

PROS : - sound very good thru the speaker output (I'm using a 1x12 Celestion Vintage 30 closed cab)- with the help of the Vintage 30 high sensitivity, it's perfectly loud enough for little gigs, as long as you don't need much clean headroom
- sound amazing while pushing a tube power amp (I've plugged the loop send to the loop return of two amps: one Laney TTH20 with 2xEL84 and one Seymour Duncan Convertible 100 with 4xEL34); totally tube-like , VERY impressive.
- very good Marshall emulation, one of the best I've heard, really (better than the POD's one IMHO - I did compare); I had a Marshall JMP-1 preamp in the past and this thing smokes it - very close from my old JMP and JCM900.
- good Boogie emulation (I'm less of a boogie guy and have nothing except the POD to compare; sound more like a classic boogie than a recto if you see what I mean).
- ok loop (no volume control but hey - 117 ?) ; I prefer that option than the usually useless crappy on-board reverb in this price range (and above...).
- very good speaker-emulated output! at least the headphone one, cause I still haven't tried the XLR in a board or PA but I suppose it is the same than the headphone output and this one sound great! I was a bit afraid cos usually overdriven sounds sucks with headphones but here no, it's perfect. Impressive considering the price ( btw, I've seen people saying "it's a Vamp in a combo" : that's totally wrong, the Vamp is digital and this combo is analogic, go back study a bit of physic folks).

CONS: - the stock speaker is rather weak; it is ok for low volume practice but has an annoying high-mids honk at medium to high volume and the treble are quite aggressive. Once you've tried an external speaker, it's hard to get back so I'll probably swap the stock one for a new speaker (celestion vintage 10 or a weber).
- I don't like the Fender emulation (I know how a fender is supposed to sound, thx to my much regretted Princeton and Twin reverb); the sparkle ain't there, no crystal sounds and a bit muddy too; and the overdriver "fender" sounds are bad. I know some like it though, so it's maybe me?
- as I said before the Marshall and Boogie emulations are great, but even with the gain set very low, on the clean setting, the sound is already overdriven, there's not this "clean about to break into crunch" sound ; still you can achieve it with your guitar volume or a volume pedal.
- the Clean and Hot settings are my favorites (with Marshall and Boogie amps), but I don't appreciate the Higain setting as much - still good though.
- noise. There's a bit yes, especially on the Marshall setting, but nothing annoying while you're playing.

So a 10 for the Marshall emulation, a 9 for the Boogie and a 6 for the Fender.
A 9 for the Clean and Hot settings, a 7 for the Higain.
A 3 for the flat setting , a 10 for the 4x12" and a 8 for the 2x12" open back (sound good but rather like another closed back than an open back IMHO).
A 6 for the stock speaker, a 9 for the external speaker and a 10 when used as a preamp to drive a tube power amp.

So it's a 8.

Can't say, have it since two days.

Can't say.

Been playing since 26 years and have owned most of the famous amps (Marshall JMP, JCM900 and JMP-1, Vox AC15 and 30 , Fender Princeton reverb and Twin reverb ); I still have a '63 Vox AC15, a Laney TTH20, a Seymour Duncan Convertible 100 and a Vox BMS. I play classic rock and blues-rock (let's say Led Zep, Rory Gallagher and this kind of stuff).
I was looking for an amp with a good Marshall sound at low volume and this one fit the bill perfectly and have much more than that to offer.

It is not perfect (so-so stock speaker, weak fender emulation - IMHO -) but for 117 euros ??? I can't believe it, and when I remember the practice amps 20-30 years ago ... today's young guns are damn lucky!

Considering the price, it's a well-deserved 10, no doubts about it.
