I bought this for my son to practice. Aaaaand I use it more than he does.
Works great as a portable speaker - uses AA Batteries. I suggest buying the power supply cord (not included). Has an aux input and works great.
Also has an aux output for headphones.
As an amp it has decent sound quality and has a few controls for gain and delay. We have used my son’s acoustic Yamaha - with a magnetic pick up, fender mini strat, and fender Malibu acoustic/electric on this amp. For a small room to practice it works great.
Also great for outdoor small picnics or just when you want to practice outside.
I’ve tried a number of portable amps before from fender, Marshall and danelectro all of them either blew out or failed within a month.
The construction feels solid on this amp - knobs and controls are responsive and have a solid feel to them.
If you are looking for a small amp to have fun with, practice with, or just tryout before you commit to a larger amp - this amp is the best.
EVEN if you NEVER use it as an amp it’s a great portable speaker for picnics and backyard get-togethers.
BUY THE POWER SUPPLY - SOLD SEPARATELY FROM BLACK FLY - DO NOT USE A THIRD PARTY POWER SUPPLY CORD.
On battery power alone I’ve used it for about 8-10 hours before the batteries died.
The quality seems pretty good for the price and it has very usable tones, so if you are thinking you need a good little battery operate travel amp, go for it! The delay works pretty well to give you some variation. I have no idea if this amp takes pedals well but I might try it at some point just for the heck of it.
I’ve been using the amp over my bed while I practice, I connect my Squier Telecaster, my SX Les Paul and I also connect my Mahalo Ukulele, and with all of them the sound is amazing, really loud and clear.
And it’s also really beautiful, part of my family are from England, so I love the flag! It uses 6 AA batteries, but so far on a constant use, still has the same batteries. No complaints so far, I will buy the Extra Cabinet for getting the 6 watts!

1st off This is for practice or for me a portable option to play electric guitar in any room of the house on the fly. It will even work in a small jam session as well. The sound is actually pretty good and max volume I would rate a little louder than an acoustic. Realistically You wouldn’t gig with it, but that is not what it’s for. The delay is a nice touch and adds some depth to the sound. The tone control takes a little getting used to but with some practice you can dial in some nice tones. With a head phone out and mp3 in, it really is quite useful. I did add the extra AC power adapter for around the house but it came with a full load of batteries, and works well either way. I like it so much I am considering the extra speaker. I have had this for a couple of weeks so my review is out of the honey phase. It has it limitations but as a small portable amp/mp3 player in one I dare you to find one at this good at this price. 🤘🏻

Puissant, précis, respecte votre guitare et votre jeu. Le delay est très bien. Ça reste un ampli portable, mais vraiment sérieux.
Bonne autonomie.
Super pour partir en voyage avec un vrai ampli.
Je recommande.
collezione per gli amanti della musica inglese, guardandolo la mente torna ai Beatles, ai Rolling stones,ai Pink Floyd, ai Led Zeppelin, agli Oasis, alle strade londinesi piene di musica, a Penny Lane e Strawberry Fields. Oggetto altamente consigliato!!!
Die Potis samt Knöpfe, machen einen sehr hochwertigen Eindruck, wirklich toll!
Der Klang ist für so ein kleinen Amp wirklich erstaunlich voluminös und recht bassstark.
Der Klangregler lässt ein sehr breites Klangspektrum zu.
Die Batterien scheinen ewig zu halten, was auf einen recht niedrigen Stromverbrauch schließen lässt.
Ich finde diesen Miniamp sehr gut und benutze ihn zum üben fast nur noch.
Mit Humbucker befeuert, reicht der Gain sogar für Metal, mit Singlecoils kann man recht laut auch sehr clean spielen.
Das Delay ist eine nette brauchbare Erweiterung.
Ich bin begeistert von diesem kultigen kleinen Amp und kann ihn vollständig empfehlen.
