Great acoustic amp, but be careful

Let me start by saying this amp sounds great. I don't think I've heard my acoustic guitar sound better. And this thing cranks!

The only drawback for me was the fact that I didn't realize it is NOT compatible with the the power in the United States. I had to buy a power converter. This is easy, when going from the U.S. to Europe. But not the other way around. Literally, all they'd have to do is put a switchable power supply in it, and the problem would be solved.

Good for the money.

Nice sound, looks good.

Has a chorus and a reverb effect, but only for guitar channel. You can't apply effects to mic channel. That's a down side.

But it doesn't cost much, so can't expect too much.

Great Amp for Second Instrument.

I bought this amp to amp my ukulele during gigs. I don't use the ukulele for every gig so I wanted something affordable but still good quality. This amp is perfect and gives a really good sound quality.

There is a small delay in picking up the signal from the instrument but a good strum of the strings should do the trick and then you will be good to go.

Affordable, easy to use, and easy to transport.

Highly recommend.

Blast the Neighbours

I am new to amps, so I got this one because it was cheap enough to sell on if I didn't like what I got. A good choice for what turned out to be the wrong reasons. I love this amp.

First, the reason it gets four stars rather than five across the board. I found it a little difficult to start off. It goes to a green (standby) light when you turn on and only goes red (let it rip now) when it picks up a signal from the plugged in guitar. Fair enough, but I didn't realise that it needs a hearty strike on the sixth string (it works for me) to get it up to speed, after this it's all systems go. A minor criticism, but it frustrated me until I read a previous customer's review which talked of a strong signal on start up.

The good points- it looks good and better than its price would suggest; it lets you produce sounds that are truly wonderful, I turn up the chorus when I' doing slow slide and it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up; it's GREAT value for money, the nearest I could find elsewhere was more than double the price; and for fans of Spinal Tap, these go to fifteen!

Decent amp for small gigs

I wanted an amp for my electro-acoustic guitar and ukulele with additional mic channel.

This product seems to be OK, it is loud enough, nice EQ, reverb works fine, chorus can be a bit tricky, but, for the amount paid what to expect more!?

So far so good, will see performance after some hours of playing :)

Rock on!
