Behringer TM300 Tube Amp Modeller

Such a good pedal, I used it as a preamp running into a pa type amp and it sounds great. I was bummed that it didn't have a second channel, something a lot of these preamp pedals have, but since it is so cheap I literally just bought another one. One dialled for a nice toasty warm Fendery type clean and the other dialled for a punchy Marshall type growl. I put them next to each other and by stomping on both you can insta switch channels.My only beef is that the 9v socket is so close to the input jack that my pancake patch cables don't really fit. But I just used other cables? Not knocking a star off for that, insane value, if you are curious just get it, best £25 buy out there I reckon, lots of great sounds inside it and lots of fun dialling in all kinds of different vibes. It's a bit noisy at high gain so get a noise gate if you don't already have one, but you should already have one.

A bargain price for a good quality, well made modelling amp pedal. It is surprisingly heavy & is made out of strong plastic material. I tried powering it by battery, but this uses a lot of power & it does not operate when the battery is low. I use it with a mains adaptor & this is a lot better. Depending where the pedal is placed, there can be a lot of interference noise, so it has to be placed away from other powered objects such as an amplifier. It is also a lot better using shielded cables, it makes a big difference to the amount of interference.There are a large amount of sounds that can be obtained from this pedal, from clear tones to heavily distorted. It is good fun playing about with the settings on the pedal & tone controls on the guitar to see what sounds can be made. It works best on the clean channel on an amplifier & using the pedal controls to get the desired effect. A handy little gadget that makes a good variety of sounds.

Clone of a Sansamp GT2. I've not used the GT2 but have used the Sansamp Classic and this is not quite as good but is very usable and gives you a great selection of useable tone. No one will know your using a Behringer, go on get one!

Great little pedal. Its features are easy to understand. The sounds are incredibly accurate if you want to spice up your lead tones. It gives that certain something when digging in with your pick. It jangles and djents very well. The best 22 quid pedal ive ever bought. Well done Beringer!

I thought this might be usable as a small simple way to simulate a variety of amps, straight into a mixer when playing at open mic nights if I wanted to use an electric guitar. I didn't find usable tones among the variety of selectable options, to me it sounds very much unpleasantly solid state and not at all tubey, and the noise level is high. £23.99 is a very low price, but I just won't use it, so I returned the item.

Behringer's clone of the Sansamp GT-2.Basically 3 amps in a box. I bought as a back up to any amp failure during a gig. Fortunately, I haven't needed it for that purpose.At home it definitely makes a nasty sounding practice amp sound better. I have found only the tweed setting with the drive dialled out to be usable. It does sound pretty good tbh, and worth the £20 I spent on it.The other two amp settings, brit & California, aim to emulate the Marshall and Mesa Boogie tones but sound more like a box of bees to me. With patient tweaking I'm sure they too could be usable, just not for me. The clean Fender Tweed setting is fine for my purposes.The pedal is also a bit noisy, with a noticeable hiss when engaged. Add in some gain pedals and a noise suppressor may be required.Listen, for the price, you can't go far wrong. Could be handy for a beginner as could improve the overall sound of any solid state practice amp. It does a decent job of sounding like a valve/tube amp under the right circumstances.This pedal is of the same build quality as all other Behringer pedals. Tough plastic casing, pots and inputs mounted to the circuit board etc. The casing feels durable and I've yet to see proof that one has fell apart from being stepped on lol. The mounted pots and inputs would be more of a concern. I'm just careful with them and that, hopefully, sound help with their long term reliability.This pedal didn't exactly blow me away but at £20 each, they are worth investigating.

I was really hesitant about getting this as I was unsure whether it would play nice going into my amp. I'm a home-only player having picked guitar back up after a long hiatus during lockdown, so all I have amp-wise is a Marshall MG15MSII stack, which is very much a solid state beginner amp.This thing is great. For someone who not's accustomed to high end gear and also has a broad range of musical tastes I can now get tones closer to John Mayer, John Frusciante etc with the Tweed setting and some AC/DC, Clapton tones with the British setting, rather than using the overdrive setting built into the amp which quite honestly doesn't sound like anything. I found the Calif setting to be a bit odd, I was expecting it to give a Mesa Boogie style sound so was thinking Metallica, Dream Theater etc, but although it's nice, doesn't quite hit the mark for me, might need to play around with it some more.The biggest bonus for me is that the clean sound built into the amp literally sounds dead and totally uninspiring, and this fixes that right up. This also emulates a Marshall gain tone better than the amp's overdrive does for me, but bear in mind the amp I'm using is probably about 10-15 years old for me.Can't speak to reliability but I have another Behringer pedal that's lasted 6 months so far with no issues.
