Okay so I bought this expecting a small amp I could use when i couldn't use a regular amp.I was expecting it to be great either.When I plugged my guitar into it I immediately noticed how weak it was.It was not very loud at all,and the sound quality was horrible. Also when I used the distortion it was very scratchy and you could barely tell what note's you were playing.And then when I went to take out the cable,the speaker pops out,taking the wires with it!I did not even pull the wire hard at all!I would not recommend this to anyone,at all.
I originally saw this amp online about 6 weeks ago, wasn't sure it was what I wanted in a battery powered portable and went with the Marshall MS-1. That didn't quite have the punch I was looking for but still an excellent quality amp for the cost and generally in stock at every GC I have been too. I decided to pre-order this little guy and was stoked that it came in yesterday morning went to pick it up rushed home pulled my American Deluxe out jacked in the Prolink Monster cable powered up adjusted the settings hit a few chords and frowned, it was supposed to be 8 watts and sounded more like .08!!! I readjusted the settings still super quiet, switched it over to the distortion setting and could finally hear it but you really couldn't tell what it was you had played. It does look pretty cool and maybe if you are jacking in head phones it sounds better IDK as I didn't bother to try, it feel kinda flimsy construction wise like if it dropped 4ft its case would crack. I really cant find any redeeming qualities about it what so ever and if I could give less than one star I would. If you absolutely want or need a mini amp definitely go with the Marshall MS-1 or anything other than this, it will be a complete waste of your time and money to try this thing. Thank god for the GC 30 day return, it is going back when the store opens.
