yeah, they're pretty good, but they have FAR too much scope on the treble.. it's easy to sound WAY too "twangy"

I`d prefer a marshall amp because a lot of bands use them and they`re known!

i don't think i'd ever buy a guitar without playing it first ever again.
i bought a BC Rich Mockingbird from a mail order place (one of the limited editions with the fixed bridge and the 3-a-side headstock) and although it looked the business it was a nightmare to play. neck heavy, quite a poor fingerboard, the set-up was a joke.

it took me about a week of tweaking to get it set up nicely, but i got rid of it pretty quickly and used the cash to buy another les paul :)

Well, I haven't ever seen a Behringer amp, or advert for one ever since I bought it, probably.

I couldn't tell you if it was a bad amp though, as I haven't played with anything else.

So, in short, I've only ever played with a Pacifica on a Behringer amp.

So I can't really advise.

Behringer aren't unknowns.
They're quite well known, in fact.
