ReviewsBogner Alchemist 2x12
by Charlie Long from Naperville, IL
I've been playing guitar since age 10, professionally off and on since 16...that's more years than I wish to comment on. I've owned every big name amp during that time, and want to say that this amp i... read more [+]s fantastic....It took me about 5 minutes to dial in a killer clean that is toothy and chimey with single coils, and a really amazing thick distortion that sounds like Steve Vai on the Alien Love Secrets cd... this is a serious piece of gear for serious tone merchants....if all you want to do is play one finger barre chords on the bottom 2 strings, it might not be for you... but if you're looking for killer cleans, great thick distortion, and YOUR tone... try this thing out!!!! close [-]
July 2, 2010 Music Background: 25 year gigging musician Sounds like old Van Halen in the lead mode!!!!
by Steve from Tennessee
You can tell that Reinhold Bogner was the technician that boosted Eddie Van Halen's Marshalls! I just bought the Alchemist and the sound speaks for itself. It's raw and toney and touch sensitive and ... read more [+]the basic sound is dead on old Van Halen in the lead mode! To top it off, the onboard reverb and delay is killer. It doesn't have a phaser or a chorus built in; however, with the tonality of the amp, there is no need for a wave device to give the amp life. I think the tonality is due to the circuitry and the materials the amp cabinet is made from (obviously top notch, even if it is Chinese made!)Also, the amp sounds just as good if not better with country music as a Fender and is versitile with all types of music. Some reviews have mentioned some of these amps are problematic right off the bat; however, mine works great and with a sound like old Eddie, what am I to complain about! I think I'm gonna keep this one!...KILLER AMP< good job! close [-]

Zach NeelsI enjoy playing different genres, and this amplifier allows me to play my favorite jazz, blues, rock, and metal tones without ever changing amps! The cleans are pristine, the crunch is powerful, and the lead tones send my humbucker-equipped guitars into a literal frenzy of powerful riffs! Buy this amp if you're looking for an amazing all-around amplifier! Not horrible
by Zach Drummond from Gardendale, AL
I played this amp a good bit at my local shop, and I was left disappointed. The tone of the amp is not bad, and there are many useful features on board. The biggest problem I had with this amp is that... read more [+] it's so noisy. It's not too loud. It just has too much noise interference-white noise. My favorite band of all time, which is Coheed and Cambria, uses Bogner amps, so I was expecting a flawless performance. Turns out however, that the Bogner Uberschall that Coheed uses and the Alchemist are quite different amps. The Uberschall uses EL-34 tubes, and the Alchemist uses 6L6's, so the tone is different. In truth I'm not really being fair comparing the Alchemist to the Uberschall because the Uberschall is twice the price, but this is my experience with the amp. I'm not saying I don't like this amp. It may be built in China or wherever, but it still produces a good sound. I also like the aesthetics of the amp. If you play metal, then I'd say this is a great amp for you. If you want good clean tones, this may also be a good choice. I give the amp a 3 because it wasn't the amp for me. It could work for you though, so be sure to give it a try! close [-]
