A classic Lilliputian powerhouse perfect for the office or game room!

The Mini '57 Twin is a super-cool little jammer with a realistic vintage visual vibe. The genuine tweed-covered wood cab contains built-in distortion; power, volume, and tone controls; plus one serious watt of power and 2 - 2" speakers. A 9V power adapter jack can be used in place of the 9V battery. Plug into the 1/4" headphone jack to get genuinely cool tone for practicing or even use it as a line out to a power amp or recording gear.

Nice alternative to my 60 pound amp

I love this little bugger. It is so easy to use, and it has great sound for its size and price. The only mini amp that comes close to this one is the non tweed Fender Mini Twin amp. I definately recommend it to all.

Great sounding, extremely portable.

The Fender '57 Mini Twin Amp delivers great sound quality for its size. Other mini-amps have a very "plastic"-like sound. This amp can be blasted at full gain, and still maintain a usable sound. The headphone output also is great to practice with headphones on the road without having to use a big effects pedal, or a big amp. The Fender Mini Twin Amp offers three knobs to use. These are Volume, Tone, and Drive. Obviously it doesn't have outstanding sounds, but this Fender Mini Twin gives you a nice sound to use on the road, or when you are away from home... All Mini-Amps for around this price are more or less the same, but I found this one to be a bit better than the rest. It honestly doesn't matter which mini amp you choose, but if you want some decent control and tone, the Fender '57 Mini Twin Amp is a good choice for you.

Sturdy little amp for under $100

During an extraordinary bout of procrastination, I decided to add a pick-up to my ukulele. It is a cheapish Hilo uke (so cheap that Guitar Center doesn't like to admit they sell them), and I was prepared to throw down whatever cash was needed to see what sort of sounds I could get out of it. I had attached a K&K Hot Shot piezo pick-up just below the sound hole under the strings and then trotted off to my local Guitar Center to purchase an amp. I'd done a little research on-line and settled for the Fender '57 Mini Twin for a number of reasons, namely: looks, price, and size (in that order). Imagine my amusement when I walked into the store, asked for the Fender [Mini] Twin, and was shown to the full-sized amplifier. The sales rep's face was priceless when I told him I planned to hook it up to an ukulele. Then, I explained that he'd misunderstood me and I was looking for the smaller version. What did I expect from an amp that cost $50 and came in a plastic-and-cardboard sleeve? Not much. But the truth is, I'm quite surprised by how well it has performed. The retro styling, with the chicken-headed knobs and tweed covering, draws a lot of attention at gigs and it's small enough to stick -- cables and all -- into a backpack. A 9V battery powers the twin 2" speakers for a considerable period (I've yet to change it), and it accepts power from a 9V DC plug. The volume and tone is decent, as is the drive. It's not an amp for audiophiles, but its portability, looks, and price suits me fine for simply uking around.

Sweet Little Amp!

This amp is great for it's price! It is very small but loud. It runs on batteries so you can take it anywhere. It's great for parties or playing outside. I love it!

well worth the price

The '57 Mini Twin Amp is well worth the price when you hear it's clear tone. Through the dual speakers, it's just loud enough to keep your songs down to a personal level, but put on a pair of headphones and you'll hear how this amp is meant to be heard. There isn't much distortion, but if you buy a vintage style amp, you should be looking for vintage tone, and it's presented hear nicely. The Mini Twin is just loud enough for personal play and the quality of it's features and it's durability make the price unbeatable. I paid more for a Danelectro mini amp, and it only lasted a month. The amp will present you with smaller details in sound also, I played my guitar as an upright because I don't have a bass, and it picked up all the neck slaps without any feedback or scratching. You can't beat the price on such a small powerful amp that's looks so good. It'd make a great gift.
