Prior to reviewing this guitar amplifier head I was unfamiliar with Bugera as a brand. I usually have my finger on the pulse and was disappointed at myself for not finding out about these guys a little sooner. It seems that the Bugera R&D department have all come from various Amplifier manufacturers as each model seems to be an almost identical copy of another amp. The Bugera 333XL is a copy of Peavey's JSX and the Triple XXX models.
