Not a Bugera fan but sure beats the Montgomery Ward catalog amp i started with in early 1970's.
If my triple doesn't move soon, I am keeping that beast!Kyle sells more amps in a week than I have owned for my entire life. The Tri rec demos to me sounded better than Dual Recs this is the first demo I've watched of the 6260.
I ordered a 6505 to replace the 5150 sig I sold a year and a half ago. I sold it thinking I could just buy another one a few months later. Sold it for 600 then 2 months later they are going for triple. As much as I loved that amp, I will be damned before I pay that.
Each to his own, but I don't think it lacked gain at all, especially when he kicked into the lead channel.He never uses enough gain for my ears. I know I know, "you never need as much gain as you think when recording"....but, I think people over compensate for that by using too little gain.
Sure you could argue that once you double track and pan wide it will sound much bigger. But I just wish his chugs had a tad more gain everytime.
I really dig his vids cause he doesnt go overboard with the gain. I think you get a little more of an amps personality to come through without all the gain on youtube vids. Take Ola, Fluff, Reza or who ever. Once you get it super saturated it all sounds pretty much the same. Now in the room I would definitely use more gain.He never uses enough gain for my ears.

He should play some anyway!Amp sounds like its gasping for air. He should play some Suffocation riffs.
Agreed 100%. Used to watch him more regularly. He’s charismatic and great personality, very likable guy as others said, and he gets an overall sound that is pleasant enough and works, but not at all good for distinguishing the details in the tone of the amps. If you actually compare to some other YouTube channels, his overall sound is often a bit muffled actuallyI agree, I stopped watching Kyle's vids a while ago. Not because they sucked. No, he seems like a good guy and I appreciate his effort. To me they just all sounded so similar that it wasn't helpful for me anymore. I guess one could open several tabs and A/B his vids as comparisons.
Ola is the same way, but he's a pretty entertaining dude so I'll click from time to time.
Dude I'd love to hear you demo some of your gear. You could do what Ola USED to do...no talking, just a shot of the amp showing the settings. Maybe a shot of your signal chain/pedal board and some text on the screen. Personally I'd like to see youtubers move back in this direction, but again there is the entertainment factor as well.Agreed 100%. Used to watch him more regularly.

I’m still a newb with recording, but I can already get a sound where I can hear big differences and nuances in my amps, so I’m happy there, but my overall sound is just too dry, sharp and just not pleasant sounding, but working on it. I’ve wanted to do a channel YouTube myself just like Kyle for a while, so definitely respect a lot what he’s doing. My main issue would be being very awkward and not charismatic on camera haha
I would too. I watch these things to learn about gear, not hear stupid jokes. I can just watch family guy or something else that does that better lolDude I'd love to hear you demo some of your gear.

No he's not. Love the guy. Humble a honest. Funny too.Kyle is boring!!!
