Behringer [Hopefully this isn't old news]

Right... but imagine a completely original design from Bugera, if they wanted a decent amp they would have to spend on the R&D which they have been neglecting by just copying proven designs, and this would completely fuck up their business model of providing cheap amps with decent components.

I mean seriously guys stealing designs in the amp world isn't exatly new. The first Marshall was a Fender Bassman clone. The first Randall Smith (Randall / Mesa) was a JMP / JTM 45 clone.

Its just the way of the world.
