That's how I feel as well. Even his more "brutal" example here sounds like 80s shred stuff. Which is honestly amazing. I love that. Gives it its own unique character. I want to have this just to find out, if I can get a "what if Racer X was a 2020s Deathcore band" kinda sound out of it.
As someone that’s been playing over 30 years, most of my favorite amps I’ve had for 20+ years and while they were very expensive for me at first, if you find one you bond with then over time, the cost was a bargain if it’s a keeper.
I tried the Ecstasy pedal as soon as it hit the market here in L.A. around '89 or so. I was very impressed. I tried the full-on amp iteration in the early 90s. I was already a fan of Boogie, Engl, Rivera and Soldano, but the Ecstasy was on another level. I absolutely loved it. Every serious guitarist owes it to themself to try these high-end amps. Even if you don't buy one (no, I still haven't owned a Bogner), you'll understand their capabilities and incredible design.
What I love about Bogner is the ability to shape gain so you can get it just right. They are extremely versatile and useful amps. Not all gain is the same. And it's not just about having a lot of gain on tap. It's all the directions you can push it with a Bogner. They are also extremely well built.
That's the blessing and curse for us guitarists these days, there are actually no bad amps anymore. In the past you could choose between a handful of manufacturers, but nothing more. Nowadays even the transistor amps are incredibly good. Unfortunately, the prices of some manufacturers are so outrageously high that the joy is immediately taken away.
Cool Amp. for sure. Uncle Benny Bob. and I might add "Not Cheap" is an understatement of epic proportion. LOL Hey That whole, "SHRED TILL YOU'RE UNDEAD" thing ? Is a little much for me to commit to. Is it okay if I ... Just Pick Till I'm Sick ? LOL Thanks Uncle Benny Bob. You are appreciated.
at 3.3K, I'm waiting for one to fall off a truck. Now I have a Line 6 DT50 which was designed by Bogner, he pretty much shrugged it off with "well they like it" lol. And I bought it used.
Wow Uncle Ben; ‘wanna listen to AC/DC, Type-O, and Pantera all at the same time! In unfettered financial dreamland, would love to A/B with my JCM into cab of choice. Some of us here caught your “don’t even look at it” quip; ahh… Spinal Tap, forever the de facto nudge/wink certification “you’ve gone ‘there’”😅 I think this may go to 12😅 Does anything set tension resolution like F to E death bar chord; see rhetorical. Great video Uncle Ben✌🏽
Friedman was saying that Bogner would show up to the NAMMs in a see threw plastic suit and no clothes underneath. He said everyone was drunk back in the 90's at these shows.
Yep...sounds awesome, love that sound. I agree it's Definitely fuzzy buzzy scooped and EQd, Reminds me of a dimebag sound at times sorta. Would you agree ?, or are my ears wrong , I reckon U could Daisy chain a few pedals of choice into amp of choice and save the money,...can you show us the inside of it or even a schematic diagram perhaps. Expensive Amp for the mortal man .
must sneak over to uncle ben's house after school to jam on his bogner, also must not forget to write down his settings so he wouldn't suspect a thing!
If you took price out of the equation. which do you think is more versatile? Diezel vhx or the Bogner uber ultra? not necessarily which sounds better, but which do you think would be more versatile?
Still having a bit trouble on the Symphony solo :D :D hahahahha, especially the arpeggio part in the middle, where it jumps up so quickly, getting better but, still I can't do you think I can do some day? :D Cheers
sorry to ask, but is there any chance you'd be willing to do another video on some human fuse? i love the band, and it'd be awesome to see you go over some of those songs 🤟
So...good vid but i just wanted to mention that the Metamorph knob is supposed to coincide with the fat/tight switch. If you have it on Fat, the morph knob affects the fatness. If you have it on Tight, same deal..the morph knob affects the tightness....almost so tight that you lose almost all gain...it's weird. But cool!! Try it out and get back to me!! 😅
I don’t know that the Uber will ever get as loose and tubby as a Rec…. Hmm… I may have to try some things now. Doom mode, lots of bass and depth, maybe turn that density control up… it’s worth a try!
Is the box big enough to live in? If i bought that, she would kick me out so i would need a place to live 😔. Sounds awesome though. Great things cost more money, just no way around that
There is always something 80 that I really love in Bogner 's amp. Great video!

$3374 if anyone was wondering.
Ain’t cheap!
@@BenEller things that are nice, warrant the price.
Holy shitballs expensman

22:48 "Thank you guys so much for Juan". We're happy youre enjoying him, Uncle Ben.
Best video showcasing this head. Awesome job Ben
Glad you liked it!

12:22 I gotta say I love that you played the rose of Sharyn riff. One of the best metal core songs imo
That Jackson and the Bogner sounded amazing!
That heavy metal tone was awesome.
When you started playing that Mastodon-like riffs, I started headbanging.
I was just thinking how RATT like your jam was and then there it was “Your In Love” I now am. ❤
Great playing and guitar toning, brother uncle Ben.
Thank you kindly!
I have a VERY large amp collection and my Uberschall Twin Jet Purple Mod is one of my absolute favorites. SOOOO much gain but so articulate.
Awesome vid dude! When I got mine, it quickly became one of my all time favorite amps. So versatile and just an overall fantastic amp.
I know this isn’t the point of the video, but that Jackson is freakin PRETTY 🤤
9:04 “I’m a tweaker by nature…”, that explains A LOT! LOL, j/k, love you bro!
that terminator crunch is insane and james cameron would be so proud
That thing sounds amazing. I'd like to see Neural DSP do an official plugin version of this like they did with the SLO100 and Nameless, etc..
Definitely! I got the Uber Ultra captures from Ampguru for the Quad Cortex and love em!
Dam, You got all the Synergy modules.

It’s true, there’s a LOT of choices these days and they’re all good choices!
THANK YOU for putting the power tube type in the video title. Fire tones brother!
Thanks Uncle Ben.
Nice Jackson....cant go wrong with a Bogner.
Quite amazing how many great tone you got with this beast of an amp.
More insane than that Spider 6 setting. Also, those floor model deals are nice. Saved $240 on a recording speaker. Nothing actually wrong with it.
Cool Amp. for sure. Uncle Benny Bob. and I might add "Not Cheap" is an understatement of epic proportion. LOL
Hey That whole, "SHRED TILL YOU'RE UNDEAD" thing ? Is a little much for me to commit to.
Is it okay if I ... Just Pick Till I'm Sick ? LOL
Thanks Uncle Benny Bob. You are appreciated.
This amp has everything, which is too much. Thanks for the Soundgarden, 4th of July rendition. Love your channel!
I got the kt88 variant...I legitimately am so thrilled and scared of the damn thing! It's one hell of an amp!
Uncle Ben has an axe and amp for every day of the week 😂 🤘🤘
That guitar/amp combo sounds like "Dark Lukather". Also, Stepdad July 4th! Frick yeah!
The bogner Uber profile on my kemper is my go to heavy rhythm profile! Just might have to try the real thing now!
I think this is my overall favorite high gain amp...
But I REALLY like the Ninja Turtles game theme in the background!
Awesome amp. Sounds so hot rodded.
Also digging those HT virtuosos.
at 3.3K, I'm waiting for one to fall off a truck. Now I have a Line 6 DT50 which was designed by Bogner, he pretty much shrugged it off with "well they like it" lol. And I bought it used.
Cheers Ben 👍
Ben is a RUclips Gem
Amazing amp. Kudos for the Soundgarden nod too with 4th of July :)
The Uber is my GOAT. I’ve been lucky enough to try and own some great amps, but trying an Uber in my friend’s place rearranged my brain 😂
Great demo!!!
@2:16 where’s that whammy bar gotten to?
I’m a Bogner fanboi, so gotta love this episode
I am here for the plant!
It’s outta control!!!
Hey, this guy's kinda good!
I'm entirely still stuck on "smoke dope and mash rope" -- never heard it before but absolutely love it.
Trademark Ben Eller!
That thing is a beast
woo! Best uncle EVERRRR
My new favourite amp and my new favourite word “morerer”
They should change the name of the Density knob, to "Knob Polisher"
Wow Uncle Ben; ‘wanna listen to AC/DC, Type-O, and Pantera all at the same time! In unfettered financial dreamland, would love to A/B with my JCM into cab of choice. Some of us here caught your “don’t even look at it” quip; ahh… Spinal Tap, forever the de facto nudge/wink certification “you’ve gone ‘there’”😅 I think this may go to 12😅
Does anything set tension resolution like F to E death bar chord; see rhetorical.
Great video Uncle Ben✌🏽
Dear Santa
I think you may have convinced me to get the Synergy Uber. I've been fighting the losing battle to decide which one I'll get next.
Oh it’s wicked too!!!! Love it!
These amps slay so f’in much.
2:57 them some pasty guitar player knees. Them things are the pasty blinding step dad knees with matching sock line from never taking the boots off 😂
Been wanting this amp for a long time.
Definitely costs a pretty penny!
Showing off that Steve Vai/ Paul.Gilbert left hand in the thumbnail.

Expensive Amp for the mortal man .
Youth pastor Greg
So... what can this Bogner do that all your Synergy modules can't do? Because you have a LOT of Synergy modules.
My stepmom says it isn’t as Uber-ultra as you are
Awww
Reminds me massive of the ENGL Powerball 1
The Powerball also have these super aggressive highs.
Damn you cooking bacon over there? I hear that sizzle
Man I want one
Product dev team needs to change it to "Destiny" knob.
must sneak over to uncle ben's house after school to jam on his bogner, also must not forget to write down his settings so he wouldn't suspect a thing!
opportunity missed when you switched to the Hair ++ mode. I was hoping you’d use a filter to give yourself the ultimate 80’s whitesnake hair.
Awesome sounding amp... but I think you can use a couple more synergy modules just sayin'... lol
you sir, are a Sludge Pirate
What power amp voicing were you on for the majority? Sounds killer!
the cleans and low gain tones are so - so.
If you took price out of the equation. which do you think is more versatile? Diezel vhx or the Bogner uber ultra? not necessarily which sounds better, but which do you think would be more versatile?
I think the Bogner, yeah. I LOOOOVE my VH2! Amazing amp, too.
@@BenEller Thank you immensely 🙏 I value your opinion a lot
That's a lot of Synergy !!
Lmao, uncle Ben being thoughtful and giving legal advice at 18:00
Did I hear some Ghost of Perdition on that clean part?!?
I’m glad you did!
Is it just me or is there a dash of Wes Hauch in the more brutalier mix? Sounds sick! 🖤💀🤘
Wes Hauch rocks!!
Still having a bit trouble on the Symphony solo :D :D hahahahha, especially the arpeggio part in the middle, where it jumps up so quickly, getting better but, still I can't do you think I can do some day? :D Cheers
It’s hard but you can do it! Get into it!!
4:32 very opeth of you
sorry to ask, but is there any chance you'd be willing to do another video on some human fuse? i love the band, and it'd be awesome to see you go over some of those songs 🤟
Possibly! There’s another EP that we did that was pretty wild.
oh that'd be sick to hear about. thank you!
Some bits sounded like Round and Round.
Uncle Ben could you please do a review of Revvg3? (I watched the cover!)
So...good vid but i just wanted to mention that the Metamorph knob is supposed to coincide with the fat/tight switch. If you have it on Fat, the morph knob affects the fatness. If you have it on Tight, same deal..the morph knob affects the tightness....almost so tight that you lose almost all gain...it's weird. But cool!! Try it out and get back to me!! 😅
Was this recorded via microphones or IR?
Just wait for a capture unless you really want the amp 🤟🤟
I’d be interested in a shootout with this and a Diezel VH4….🙏🏼
Wait…..tell us about Greg
I’ve got a VH2! Close enough?
"MORE HARDTAIL SHRED GUITARS, EVERYBODY!"
Say it louder for the folks in the back!
can you pit it against the dual rec???
I don’t know that the Uber will ever get as loose and tubby as a Rec…. Hmm… I may have to try some things now. Doom mode, lots of bass and depth, maybe turn that density control up… it’s worth a try!
* plugs in Jackson *
"Sounds pretty sweet"
* plugs in Dunable *
"CHONK!!!"
'scuse me now while I attempt to now de-pancake my balls.
Dude, that Dunable is a monster. Like 80% of my upcoming album has been written on it. That Jackson is THE BOMB, too, love it!!
Not sure if they have bogner at long n McQuade
Ultraschall would have been a sweeter name imo
Kristen Schaal has it trademarked
Plant based metal still chugs!
which speakers do you with this amp
How would it sound with the grunge pedal in front of it? #SkankBanger
I think I'll wait for the Morer Uber Ultra EL34 they will be releasing next. Sounds great. Luvin the chug.
so "Hair Plus" is basically the Alice In Chains button
Haha that’s right!
3:38 I tried playing guitars without a Floyd and I *always* miss it.
Some people gotta have that wiggle stick!
@@BenEller Well, it's been a big part of my guitar playing for the last 35 years.. so... 😂
Is the box big enough to live in? If i bought that, she would kick me out so i would need a place to live 😔. Sounds awesome though. Great things cost more money, just no way around that
Hahahaha
Does the Ultrasound also tell you if your little hessian is a boy or a girl?
The closest i can get is the Bogner in stl amp hub
What’s the song at 9:47?
What's the song at 12:08? I know it but I cannot put my finger on it 😩
Sounds more like a volume knob that a density knob
It's an NFB control which affects the volume.
