Neat little amp
Motherspot 17.03.2020
The amp came well packed as usual from Thomann. The thing that struck me when i unpacked the thing was it's size. It was much smaller than i expected. Smaller than i thought when seeing the pictures on the website and in videos. I tried it out with some acoustic guitars and after some tweaking i got a nice sound out of it. I tried it with different pickups and not all were giving a good sound on the amp. A good, satisfying pickup is important. But the amp is well build, the knobs feel sturdy enough and it's easy to carry. Not heavy and it is small. I bought a good affordable Stairville bag with it that fits it perfectly for easy and safe transport. Although it's 60 watt amp, it's not extremely loud i found. This Bugera acoustic amp will work best in a small venue or coffee shop like environment and when you need more sound you can easily plug it into a PA system trough the connections on the back. Still need time to find the best settings for the effects. Mic input for vocal sound quite well too. A nice buy for not too much cash.
PS:
I am using it now for a few months. i'ts alright. With some tweaking you can find OK settings with the build in effects. the effects-loop however is useless....which has a logic because the amp doesn't have a pre- and power amp section. i'ts a gimmick and hardly working. better plug y'r effects in in front. I'll use a TC Hall of Fame reverb & chorus in front. Sounds much better than the ones build-in. Still happy with this light-weight, small & easy to carry amp.

Outstanding value for small gigs
JustGeoff 05.11.2022
A compact little powerhouse that is perfect for small gigs and coffee shop sessions. Highly portable, (many thanks to the reviewer who suggested a Stairville SB130 as a gig bag which fits it perfectly). Oh, and the whole lot only costs about as much as a reverb pedal!
The sound: Like other reviewers, I have used the treble EQ a fair way up to boost the highs, as I like my guitar to be bright and crisp. Took just a few minutes to settle into an EQ I like, but once there it’s very stable and matches my LR Baggs Anthem very well. There are a lot of effects settings, which can be easily overdone changing the sound too much, but just a little medium length reverb dialled in suits my style. The exception is a little slap-back delay when used with a hollowbody 335-lookalike, which is great for jazz, or even some light rockabilly. The phantom power is handy as I can use some condenser mics I already own, and a lapel condenser mic doubles as a resonator pickup on channel 2. A real bonus is the standard pole mount on the bottom – I’ve even used it as a little sound reinforcement PA for a softly spoken speaker in the town hall.
I can’t say I’m a fan of the splatter paint finish, but it looks pretty durable and easier to live with than the inevitable grazes and scratches you’d get on flat black. Kicked back on its stand, it looks classy and acts as a nice monitor if the output is fed to a desk.
Would I have liked a nice oak – finish Compact amp by that other manufacturer? Sure, but I don’t have a spare 900 euros. Would I be able to hear the difference? Possibly. Would my audience notice the difference? Not a chance.

You just can't get any better. I play a nylon acoustic guitar in a traditional portuguese music band. The tone that I can get with this amp is absolutely amazing. It really captures the natural tone of an acoustic guitar. This is a pretty loud amp also that can without any issue fill up a medium-size room. Besides that, you can connect it to a PA if needed and use it as a monitor.
This is by far the best buy I've made.

Good, but who knows for how long.
Valentin giess music 23.10.2022
Sound good with acoustic guitar, gypsy guitar with shatten pickup, acustix violin, even my jazz box.
Compared it with an aer compact ( dont remembrement exact model) sound almost the same, not better or worse, just slitly different.
Good for singer song writter.
Took with me 3 weeks on tour. Still working, but feels cheap. That kind of gear you know it will fail, but don't know when. Still impressed it survive the tour tho.

First use and impressions very good
Smigsie. 15.09.2020
Took it out of the box, tried it out and then used it at a small wedding for 2x1 hour sessions with guitar and vocals, outside in a largish courtyard. It was loud enough and the sound was more than acceptable. Brilliant for the money. I have bought a 2 to 1 mic lead so we can use 2 mics and the guitar. Seems to work fine. The reverb works well. Hope it holds up with further use and abuse!

Excelent and veristile for its price.
tpto 24.05.2021
I have used it for two years now with both acoustic and electric guitars and I am very pleased with it.
It gives a nice clear sound with capability to stand very good in small and medium size rooms for gigs.
Also nice with pedals on electric guitars.
The quality is nothing much but it has good and sturdy plastic parts that seems to withstand preety good for the time I have it.
All in all a good buy. For sure it is worth it and the price of it is just perfect.

Amazing value for money amplifier
Vagelis T. 25.04.2020
Great alternative to the classic AER Compact 60. I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the sound using bouzouki (my main instrument) within minutes after I plugged in for first time use white guitar sounded equally great. Overall exceptional sound and build quality with plenty of functionality. A great buy.

Bugera AC60 amp.
BrianGus. 22.07.2019
I bought this amp to play my gypsy Jazz F Hole acoustic guitar and my Loar archtop through in small intimate venues.

I bought this amp on the recommendations of professional musicians own have used them.

I have nothing to compare it to but I am 100% happy with it, both guitars played through and sound really clear, it is easy to use really light and portable to move around.

At first glance it seems like an exact copy of a AER amp and certainly appears to be modelled on one. I can only give my opinion on it so far, but it has really impressed me on the clarity of sound from the amp.

If you are looking for a great sounding, lightweight portable amp to play in a small venue I would thoroughly recommend getting one you wont be disappointed.
