Product Name: | Bugera T50 Infinium 50W Cage-Style 2-Channel Tube Amplifier Head with Infinium Tube Life Multiplier, Multi-Class A/AB Operation and Reverb |
Product Description: | When you think of classic British rock, the sound is undeniable. It's the stuff dreams are made of, that sweet clean crunch that spawned a generation of legendary players and the music that has stood the test of time. They packed all that iconic tone and all the edgy character of a modern high-gain amp into a small, but powerful package the T50 Infinium! They added a no-compromise post-phase-splitter, dual-VR Master Volume that lets you attenuate the signal right before the power tubes for full harmonic content at any level and a huge output transformer for increased dynamic response and clarity. With 4 x 12Ax7 tubes and 2 x EL34 power tubes, the T50 is capable of covering vast sonic territories with remarkable ease. A true 2-channel amplifier, the Clean and Lead channels are completely independent and each has its own custom-tailored 3-band tone stack (Treble/Mid/Bass) for the ultimate in tone shaping. • Hand-built 50-Watt guitar head driven by 4 x 12Ax7 and 2 x EL34 tubes • Authentic 2-channel preamp design-everything from traditional clean/crunch to modern high-gain sounds • Revolutionary Infinium Tube Life Multiplier technology: • Extends the life of your amplifier's expensive power tubes up to 20 times • Provides incredible reliability and consistent tone over the complete lifespan of your tubes • No need for expensive matched tube sets • Allows you to mix and match any combination of compatible tubes types and brands - Monitors performance of each power tube continuously and displays defective tubes to allow for easy and individual replacement • Switchable Class-A/AB operation for ultimate power amp voicing: Class-A for classic warmth and Class-AB for raw, high-speed power • Integrated high-definition reverb with dedicated Reverb control • Heavy-duty footswitch for Channel and Reverb function included • Vintage Equalizer section with dedicated Bass, Mid and Treble controls • Phat switch to boost the sound character of your guitar playing • Speaker-emulated output with 1 x 12 or 4 x 12 voicing option • Imped |

I'm not a technician but I've got over a dozen classic tube amps, most of them point-to-point hand-wired , and I used to play in and record rock bands.
"Hand built" probably simply means hand-assembled. There's no way an amp specced like this could cover a skilled technicians wages and materials even in china even at the msrp.
I'm not saying it's a bad amp. But it's certainly not built with lifetime serviceability in mind, and I'm very curious how it sounds and how many corners were cut to push it out at that price point.

Why wouldn't it be?
If it's not mentioned it's probably peak watts, vs. sustained.

Sad when this comment appears to be the only guy who knows what he is talking about and he gets downvoted.

It's a beast; but If you are buying it for your basement collection then you are playing around just for fun(you do you), and that 's fine; but it's to loud for house practice *and* to loud even for most stage performances, and looks like only the one gain stage. It is not needed for sane volume metal distortion(s) and etc. Your vintage amps were not used alone for the classic (high break-up distortion) tones. And you don't (probably) want to pack these in sound enclosures and buy expensive load boxed to take the volume down, or lose the full ear breaking classic (certain) distortion tone. Hearing loss is a thing and people don't go for that anymore. Killer distortion (or not) is fine; but no longer has to make you deaf in old age.
These are the interesting original type model being modeled. And please note I suggest both tubes and non tube components just the same. The ones built well either way. And matching good tube character either way. Not poor attempted modeler or bad tube amps. I recommend one part be a 15 to 20W tube COMBO for best value and with a very inexpensive multi amp/FX+pedal. For a do all low cost 25lbs portable solution. Not trading gear often or wasting cash "working up to" your gear with bad components. But you could start with the multi and save for a combo deal just fine. From $35 to start and a sale $200 combo. You can built, beg or steal those for less.

100W(50W works) is almost a requirement for NON-tube amps *if* you also want to be able to keep up with a loud drums and sound like a tube amp. CRAZY 100W and TUBE amp is often ran as 50W or less settings when settable. Many are NOT. You don't want an untamed 100W tube amp for typical uses (bedroom to mid stage); but it could be a rare over priced beast with taming features such as master volume and load attenuation built in, and also more than one distorting gain stage, such as a non-tube pedal built in. But all that is never a deal, it's like a risky investment car, so exotic you never drive it. And there are disadvantage with to much all-in-one. You want separate where it's less expensive and combination also less expensive and when no big cons come with them. nothing is going to be absolutely perfect.
