My first "amp" was an old reel to reel player and an old 15 inch speaker with holes in it that I found in the alley. My older brother and I wired it up, fixed the speaker with glue and toilet paper (stop laughing,it works well) and plugged in my pawn shop guitar and jammed away. I could hardly hear the high note but the low noted were loud and clear.
I think more people still use the 3.5 jack than the industry might think. I am pretty sure I saw a lightning to 3.5 connector at a gas station of all places. Gas stations wouldn't carry the connector if people didn't use it.
I'm behind on a lot of product reviews, and the people who sent me the products are getting impatient. So I'm gonna finish up a few more reviews, then I'll get back to the diy how to stuff
Guns and Guitars Awesome can’t wait! Thinking about making my first guitar because of your “Super Strat” video 😬 keep up the good work! Would love to see more specifics on setting the neck properly and getting good action on a kit.
Not really a secret, but most large touring bass players play into a bass amp for show, and to hear themselves on stage. They're coming out through a DI, a good one typically, but a DI with a little dirt right before, like a sansamp , does the same thing that tiny amp does with higher quality for ten times the price.
I think that's a big challenge for someone who struggles with guitar wiring. ;) But a DIY pedal would be nice to see on this channel. It's all low voltage, can't kill Dan nor you.
Well, it's likely not as dangerous as you may think. Sid McGinnis built his own amps for years, and used one of them when he played in David Letterman's house band for quite a while.
to be honest I think this sounds better as a bass headphone amp. I even like the overdriven bass tone. Usually I don't like dirty bass tones that much.
1 critisism: the aux input is actually very nice!!! in audio technology a aux input is worth more than a bluetooth connection. if you are on a gig you could connect the aux to nearly everything with adapters but a bluetooth module would be more or less shit bc you cant connect it to a mixer or stage box or sth. (i know that the amp is to tiny for a stage XD) just sayin
People are bound to disagree with me on this. But for the record, I don’t mean I want the headphones output to be Bluetooth. Just the aux input for playing music thru the amp from your phone.
Right now I'm using a Fender Mustang 3 v.2 running stereo out of the headphone jack into a Tapco 10 channel mini-mixer using headphones for practice. I bought the Mustang for all the on-board effects that are working so well I'm buying mini-effect pedals (thanks for those reviews, I'm ordering a number of them using your Amazon affiliate links). I think I am going to get 2 Donner practice amps and a mini stereo chorus and find 2 plain amps to trade the Mustang on for on-stage.
Thanks Dan - Great Review! (Nice slappin' on the Ricky too!) Great to see reviews that get right to the point and cover all the bases. Good work! Keep it up! Cheers from Hamilton, Canada!
yeah I recorded it from the headphone output of the amp into the focusrite because there is no good way to mic up a 1.6" speaker and have it sound good
Hey dan. Ive tried wiring on a Kit of mine with dpdt (on/on) switches. Ive tried making it so the humbuckers i have (4 conducter wiring) can be played in series or parallel. Ive done everything like a tutorial of yours, but There is just one problem. It works like an on/off switch, turning off all volume at the Flick of the switch. What do i do?
I have 4 Roland Minis. Guitar Center had them on sale for $59.00 about 10-12 years ago so I bought 3 of them. 2 red ones and a white one. I already had a black one. I use them too. With a foot switch and some patch cords I have 2 channels. About 10 watts of loud enough for small gigs.
Hey my Wah pedal isn’t working it’s the Vox v845 I was using it one day and it just clicked and it wouldn’t work. I turned it off and it worked clean but when the Wah effect was on it was just silent I replaced the switch in it and tested that to make sure that the switch was working I also check the pot in it to make sure that that wasn’t stuffed, but it still didn’t work. Any tips on troubleshooting?
I am building a strat DIY kit, I bought from TomTop, but the neck is to big for the body. what should I do to make it fit? Like sand the body, or the neck?
How does this take pedals? especially mod pedals, and drive pedals in the clean side, all the drive should come from the pedals right? because there is nothing in the amp to drive?
Alex Parer at what point did I say that? My point was people Hating because something is successful than other things just like people saying oh radio music sucks cuz it’s more successful. Life isn’t fair kids
What amp(s) would anyone recommend for rock/metal for around £200? I've got my eye on the Blackstar HT-1 and the metal variant of it - any other recommendations?
I don't keep up with things but seems like there should be mini guitar amplifiers run on multiple 18650 batteries based on TPA3116 or similar class D circuits which could deliver 20 or so clean watts in a tiny package (sans speaker bulk)
Hay Dan Have a donner mini, morph distortion pedal. It sounds a lot like that little amp does on distortion. I like it a lot but if I run it in line with 2 other pedals, like say a wah & a compression it starts to squeal nonstop. I also have a couple little portable amps and my favorite by far is my Blackstar fly 3 watt with a 3” speaker. It sounds fantastic in clean & distortion + it has real delay! It cost me about $20 more than the donner cost but to me it’s well worth it. I also got a honey tone mini amp put out by DanElectro that was $30 it sounds a lot different from the blackstar. It is set up much like your Donner. Both of these run of batteries or 9v adapters. They both have headphone / line out & the blackstar has a line in. I like the3.5mm line in cable cu’z there is no lag time like I get with Bluetooth. I have some adapters to plug my iPhone straight into the amp. These little amps are idea for running into my Tascam DP-008EX for home recording. My nephew has a mini 3 watt Orange that sounds remarkable. I plan on getting more minis for my little home recording room. They all sound different from each other, they take up no space, & they go anywhere! I love them. p.s. love your videos, but it’s time for a little gun to go with the guitar. I’m heavily into both. Thanks Bro
Firstly, I have a gun video coming next week! Secondly, your amps are great except that they dont have a rechargeable battery. But for your little studio where you don’t need to be portable, they are perfect! I just prefer the rechargeable battery for my uses. Less heartbreak when I accidentally leave it on overnight
Wish it had reverb, but rechargeable batteries make this the perfect replacement for my Blackstar fly. I'm a truck driver, so small is all I have room for. I'm going to buy one.
Guns and Guitars for the price, and it's small size, I can buy a $15 dan electro slap back reverb pedal and be happy. But, yeah I see your point, there is a tone knob on my guitar. ☺
Back in the early 2000s, I bought a Danelectro Honeytone eStudio. I was expecting it to have an interface but it wasn't. It's just a good headphone amp ( think Rockman).
Would be curious if you are ever able to compare this to the Blackstar Fly 3. It costs a bit more, but reviewed extremely well against five other mini amps.
Hello Dan. Thanks for this review, but can you review also Aroma AG-03M? It is another very cheap amp, both for guitar and bass, probably suitable to practice with headphones.
the problem is that bass frequencies need a larger speaker and more power in order to sound good. So there really isn't a budget portable mini amp for bass. Just go with a headphone amp, or this donner and use headphones with it. for good bass tone without headphones, you'll have to pay some money and it won't be mini unfortunately...
[I know you hate these comments] do you think a kit guitar would really be worth buying as a players instrument? getting to further work on luthier skills as an added benefit.
Firstly, I don’t hate these comments. Secondly, absolutely these kits can be made into high end instruments. I consider myself a player, and I play my kit builds at gigs all the time
thanks for the reply, I want to learn the skills so I don't need to bring them to a luthier, and also want a new guitar, so I figured 2 birds one stone.
The Fat Turtle wouldn't be surprised if Apple made you buy it separately. Soon you're gonna have to buy the charger seperately or the screen or some shit.
I know the demo was a direct out recording, basically using it as a headphone amp. But I have to say that this thing surprised me. I think it sounds better than most of the other prortable micro amps that I've heard. Yes you can get a blackstar fly 3 for $20-30 dollars more or the katana mini for $60 more but sometimes $20 more makes a difference to people. And if it gets stolen or broken you're out $40 instead of $60-$100. I might have to pick one of these up.
Both of the amps you mentioned require 6 AA batteries, that’s the deal killer for me. This one is rechargeable so if I accidentally leave it on overnight I’m not heart broken.
Guns and Guitars yeah that is another thing. I really don't understand why those amps don't have rechargable batteries via mini USB. Im no expert. I don't know how much cost that would add to production. But since there are a ton of $10 Bluetooth speakers that have it I couldn't imagine it being very much.
Damn that’s pretty sweet actually cuz especially if you gonna use headphones anyway then why lay $150 for practice amp or even $100 39 is nice and nice and small. And finally rechargeable battery not just AAs love that part too hmmm might sell the old micro cube n grab one these lol and can’t lie it actually sounds decent as good as most $100-$150 mini amps if not better
Guns and Guitars true I wish the micro cube recharged but bad thing with my micro cube is the fx knob for Delay/reverb works but the one for trem/chorus/flange/phaser spins 360 so it impossible to find one of those Setting and then find the off Position again so it nearly useless if you bump it and the best feature for a small amp is now useless sux!!! So recently got anpeavey vypyr 15 The older ones not the vip 1 think it’s 20 watt wish I would have got newer one cuz it has wah also and takes sanpera pedal so I wouldn’t have to buy a wah also cuz it Has envelope but i just can’t get the voodoo Chile sound I want out of that wish I could so I gotta Get my first wah pedal! Dunna why I’m rambling about all that lol but thanks for your videos and response man I love your channel could you do me the biggest favor when you have time??? Do a lesson of the version of superstition you did in a demo video a few videos ago with the jazz master!! It was epic man n I love that Riff I can play the riff but not the whole song and def not the version you did with power chords and improve and seemingly took it down a string too which maybe the original does but that version you played was so epic love a lesson on that and to know the amp settings you used on that in the lesson Video if you have time man thank you!
Firstly, you’re right, it was totally staged. Secondly, you probably don’t have a 3 and 5 year old. 4 is all I need for them. Though I personally eat 8-10 myself.
I’m still using iPhone 6 because having no headphone jack is Effin lame. I’m gonna buy a record player soon so I can have a good way to enjoy music. Thanks for pushing me in that direction Apple.
I have a Mugig brand one and its all right, although it only does high gain tones. Also, I thought it was broke, but it turn out I needed to really shove the head phone jack to get it all the way in. It is nothing special, but I guess it gets the job done.
two reasons this one is better: 1) honeytone doesn't have an aux input, 2) honeytone uses a 9v battery, the donner is rechargeable, which is way better. Tone wise, I don't know, I haven't compared them back to back
Live Q&A!, saves you a ton of time so you dont have to edit the crap out of the video and maybe get good questions for us who want to learn more about the subject, just saying!
I've got an Orange Micro Terror and Dark... The Dark one has a headphone and an effects loop option... Not sure if that's what makes it dark but I'm not a valve/tube guy I don't know my analogs from my digitals unless they're loud and clearly You should check out www.musikding.de for DIY pedal kits... Then move on to printing your own decals for them
Excuse me, I happen to be a fan of 3.5mm cables and connections!
Literally everyone is a fan of 3.5mm cables. They're the industry standard.
ViviSectia except apple, and everyone who's trying to copy them
Totally.
same jere
The blackstar fly 3 is only 60$ and it is phenomenal! It has great tone, is Portable, and comes with Bluetooth and other assorted features
GregtheSalad You can also conect an extension cab which is cool.
Mercyful Media yes very true, and it's a full on amp, not a practice one!
i have a fly 3 and there's no bluetooth. did they come out w a new one?
Tim W there's different models, some have it, others have different features and looks. They are very unique
bluetooth model is $80 so lol
My first "amp" was an old reel to reel player and an old 15 inch speaker with holes in it that I found in the alley. My older brother and I wired it up, fixed the speaker with glue and toilet paper (stop laughing,it works well) and plugged in my pawn shop guitar and jammed away. I could hardly hear the high note but the low noted were loud and clear.
I want a 3.5mm jack, ya know, the industry standard... Bluetooth is a luxury.
The audio is also lower quality over Bluetooth.
I think more people still use the 3.5 jack than the industry might think. I am pretty sure I saw a lightning to 3.5 connector at a gas station of all places. Gas stations wouldn't carry the connector if people didn't use it.
When we gonna get that “installing a Floyd rose on a strat” video?
When hes finally finished intonating it
this is the funniest comment I've ever read here
I'm behind on a lot of product reviews, and the people who sent me the products are getting impatient. So I'm gonna finish up a few more reviews, then I'll get back to the diy how to stuff
Guns and Guitars Awesome can’t wait! Thinking about making my first guitar because of your “Super Strat” video 😬 keep up the good work! Would love to see more specifics on setting the neck properly and getting good action on a kit.
WTH, that bass sound was coming out of that little thing?
yes, but I was recording it thru the headphone output. it doesn't sound as ballsy thru the 1.6" speaker haha
Not really a secret, but most large touring bass players play into a bass amp for show, and to hear themselves on stage. They're coming out through a DI, a good one typically, but a DI with a little dirt right before, like a sansamp , does the same thing that tiny amp does with higher quality for ten times the price.
Most of the tone is in the speaker haha you swap it with some good speakers or run it through an impulse response and blam
Would you ever do an DIY amp-build video?
I think that's a big challenge for someone who struggles with guitar wiring. ;)
But a DIY pedal would be nice to see on this channel. It's all low voltage, can't kill Dan nor you.
That sounds super dangerous
Well, it's likely not as dangerous as you may think. Sid McGinnis built his own amps for years, and used one of them when he played in David Letterman's house band for quite a while.
peripheraldevotee94 I've been toold that it's the kind of stuff you do with a chopstick and one hand in your back pocket
peripheraldevotee94 solid state puts out a much less deadly amount of power though, maybe he could do that.
to be honest I think this sounds better as a bass headphone amp. I even like the overdriven bass tone. Usually I don't like dirty bass tones that much.
1 critisism: the aux input is actually very nice!!! in audio technology a aux input is worth more than a bluetooth connection. if you are on a gig you could connect the aux to nearly everything with adapters but a bluetooth module would be more or less shit bc you cant connect it to a mixer or stage box or sth. (i know that the amp is to tiny for a stage XD) just sayin
People are bound to disagree with me on this. But for the record, I don’t mean I want the headphones output to be Bluetooth. Just the aux input for playing music thru the amp from your phone.
3 years later and a wired connection is still better than wireless
Oh god, that slaping was sick! I can't belive, this lil guy can make this great tone.
Some of us old guys still use auxiliary inputs!!!! Thanks for the review.
Right now I'm using a Fender Mustang 3 v.2 running stereo out of the headphone jack into a Tapco 10 channel mini-mixer using headphones for practice. I bought the Mustang for all the on-board effects that are working so well I'm buying mini-effect pedals (thanks for those reviews, I'm ordering a number of them using your Amazon affiliate links). I think I am going to get 2 Donner practice amps and a mini stereo chorus and find 2 plain amps to trade the Mustang on for on-stage.
Yeah man, that TaoTronics Bluetooth adapter is a super easy work around, I love mine
You should do a full mini setup next! Have your favorite pedals from your previous videos plus this amp and have the "ultimate miniature setup"!
I got this a while before you made this video. I love that it is charged via USB. You can use a portable phone charger to charge the amp as well.
Q
Thanks Dan - Great Review! (Nice slappin' on the Ricky too!) Great to see reviews that get right to the point and cover all the bases. Good work! Keep it up! Cheers from Hamilton, Canada!
The second you turned the distortion on I was thinking it actually sounded like a very simplified version of Cliff Burton's tone.
I have one I got on sale for $25 and I gotta say it looks cheaper than it sounds. Better than most in that category.
I agree
Another great video. Thanks Dan!
you're welcome!
Man I’ll have to buy a bass from you one day, your bassed are just so amazing Dan!
Awesome review and I like the production with the skits!
I see that Focusrite back there...nice
yeah I recorded it from the headphone output of the amp into the focusrite because there is no good way to mic up a 1.6" speaker and have it sound good
im new to this brand never heard it until yesterday and ngl im impress with their guitars dst 100r kit $90 usd is so good
Hey dan.

Dude, you keep gettin mo gooder...i'm luvin it.
Thanks man! I’m working on it. It my goal to be the one youtube guitar builder that doesn’t suck at guitar lol
Well, only apple users don't use 3.5mm jacks anymore...
I'd rather get the Blackstar fly mini, waaaay better, and not much more expensive
I am building a strat DIY kit, I bought from TomTop, but the neck is to big for the body. what should I do to make it fit? Like sand the body, or the neck?
How does this take pedals? especially mod pedals, and drive pedals in the clean side, all the drive should come from the pedals right? because there is nothing in the amp to drive?
But does it metal?
Sounds are great. For the bluetooth, it will cost more and can be compromised of the battery life.
Good points here
Apple is so egotistical and cringeworthy. I will never buy anything they make.
Chris Nowak yet they’re still successful... more successful than you will ever be
*trigger warning*
Nick Kerr I mean Steve Jobs was...
Nick Kerr
Not everyone wants that kind of “success”.
Ur kinda right but they do make good products
Alex Parer at what point did I say that? My point was people Hating because something is successful than other things just like people saying oh radio music sucks cuz it’s more successful. Life isn’t fair kids
What amp(s) would anyone recommend for rock/metal for around £200? I've got my eye on the Blackstar HT-1 and the metal variant of it - any other recommendations?
Just got one for 16 in 2024.
It can be connect to bigger Speaker ? And can connect to pc for recording?
When is the floyd rose tutorial gonna drop?
Can I use this amp for a acoustic guitar
Cool Looks like it has two small speakers not one. Is it stereo on the aux inout channel?
Dude, how did you finish that teal jag bass behind you? Is that stain with a matte finish? It looks great.
I don't keep up with things but seems like there should be mini guitar amplifiers run on multiple 18650 batteries based on TPA3116 or similar class D circuits which could deliver 20 or so clean watts in a tiny package (sans speaker bulk)
Hay Dan
Have a donner mini, morph distortion pedal. It sounds a lot like that little amp does on distortion.

I'm wondering how would this work with mooer preamp pedals, might be a great hack... Or maybe not
Wish it had reverb, but rechargeable batteries make this the perfect replacement for my Blackstar fly. I'm a truck driver, so small is all I have room for. I'm going to buy one.
I really wish it had reverb too. Get rid of that tone knob for reverb and this thing is perfect.
Guns and Guitars for the price, and it's small size, I can buy a $15 dan electro slap back reverb pedal and be happy. But, yeah I see your point, there is a tone knob on my guitar. ☺
Love the T
7:52 Ok, mini amps, tone & 3.5mm jacks aside, that was really cool.
Really enjoy your videos. Do you have any suggestions for tools to work on nuts? Those but files are pricey!
Back in the early 2000s, I bought a Danelectro Honeytone eStudio. I was expecting it to have an interface but it wasn't. It's just a good headphone amp ( think Rockman).
Have you already test this mini amp ? Blackstar FLY 3 Bluetooth
Can you jam on it while it’s charging?
wait, can you tell me how to connect the guitar to the amp?
wow man it actually sounds good
£23 on amazon here in the UK. Damn Dan youve got me contemplating buying one
Would be curious if you are ever able to compare this to the Blackstar Fly 3. It costs a bit more, but reviewed extremely well against five other mini amps.
Even when checked for plugging in and things like that, my Donner 3w amp won't make any sound.
Can this be used while plugged to wall?
6:53 DO YOU HAVE 2 RIC OF THE SAME RIC BASS
No they are different, and they are custom builds for clients. Just waiting on final payment before I ship them out
Hello Dan. Thanks for this review, but can you review also Aroma AG-03M? It is another very cheap amp, both for guitar and bass, probably suitable to practice with headphones.
Why not just get a vox amplug if it'll just be used for the headphone/line out?
Can’t use it as a Bluetooth speaker
Can you do a best budget mini Amp for the bass? I really need one but in the shops there aren't any lower than 100€
the problem is that bass frequencies need a larger speaker and more power in order to sound good. So there really isn't a budget portable mini amp for bass. Just go with a headphone amp, or this donner and use headphones with it. for good bass tone without headphones, you'll have to pay some money and it won't be mini unfortunately...
Guns and Guitars thank you, love your videos, keep up the good work!
The blackstar fly 3 bass is great it's like 60$ and has a 3 inch speaker I believe, also has all the same features as this one
JON THE BOSS thank you!
I ordered one to test pedals on - I figure if I build them and they sound good on that - well done. lol
What monitors do you use?
Does he show what the amp settings are?
That distorted bass sounded a lot like Anastasia from Metallica.
Rock on man!
Tone knob does nothing? Sounds about right.
Can you do the next video on how to rout the strat for a floyd rose please?
Love your reviews. Your sense of humor is hilarious!
Anyone ever tell you that you kinda resemble Jamie Kennedy?
[I know you hate these comments] do you think a kit guitar would really be worth buying as a players instrument? getting to further work on luthier skills as an added benefit.
Firstly, I don’t hate these comments. Secondly, absolutely these kits can be made into high end instruments. I consider myself a player, and I play my kit builds at gigs all the time
thanks for the reply, I want to learn the skills so I don't need to bring them to a luthier, and also want a new guitar, so I figured 2 birds one stone.
Whaddya mean "no one uses 3.5mm any more" ??
Just about Everyone except Apple uses them all over the place.
Monoprice sells a 10 watt amp for like $30... have you tried this?
I haven’t. Is is rechargeable? Anything that requires batteries I’m not interested in.
That sounds just like my fender mustang 20 watt haha
wow really? I thought this thing sounded good, but not that good
well the rock tones mainly
Doesn't sound too different (if not better) to a vox amplug hooked up in the same way. Given that the vox isnt also a bluetooth speaker
I'd love to see a bass version lol
How's the Johnny Ramone Mosrite going?
It’s not. Yet. I’m behind on these product reviews so I need to finish them up before I get back to the diy stuff.
Alright then, thanks for the reply, you're one of the few CZcamsrs who take the time to reply, thanks
An iPhone 7 comes with the lightning to 3.5mm adaptor, did that not come with the iPhone 8?
The Fat Turtle wouldn't be surprised if Apple made you buy it separately. Soon you're gonna have to buy the charger seperately or the screen or some shit.
It still comes with the adapter
Yeah it still comes with an adapter. I just like being wireless so I can’t walk around and still use my phone while listening to music.
I know the demo was a direct out recording, basically using it as a headphone amp. But I have to say that this thing surprised me. I think it sounds better than most of the other prortable micro amps that I've heard. Yes you can get a blackstar fly 3 for $20-30 dollars more or the katana mini for $60 more but sometimes $20 more makes a difference to people.

Damn that’s pretty sweet actually cuz especially if you gonna use headphones anyway then why lay $150 for practice amp or even $100 39 is nice and nice and small. And finally rechargeable battery not just AAs love that part too hmmm might sell the old micro cube n grab one these lol and can’t lie it actually sounds decent as good as most $100-$150 mini amps if not better
idk man, if you already have a micro cube, you might want to keep it. those are cool. just buy this one too haha
Guns and Guitars true I wish the micro cube recharged but bad thing with my micro cube is the fx knob for
Delay/reverb works but the one for trem/chorus/flange/phaser spins 360 so it impossible to find one of those
Setting and then find the off
Position again so it nearly useless if you bump it and the best feature for a small amp is now useless sux!!! So recently got anpeavey vypyr 15
The older ones not the vip 1 think it’s 20 watt wish I would have got newer one cuz it has wah also and takes sanpera pedal so I wouldn’t have to buy a wah also cuz it
Has envelope but i just can’t get the voodoo Chile sound I want out of that wish I could so I gotta
Get my first wah pedal! Dunna why I’m rambling about all that lol but thanks for your videos and response man I love your channel could you do me the biggest favor when you have time???
Do a lesson of the version of superstition you did in a demo video a few videos ago with the jazz master!! It was epic man n I love that
Riff I can play the riff but not the whole song and def not the version you did with power chords and improve and seemingly took it down a string too which maybe the original does but that version you played was so epic love a lesson on that and to know the amp settings you used on that in the lesson
Video if you have time man thank you!
can you do a DIY amp tube kit? Thanks!
I’m afraid to, because I’m still learning electronics wiring and tube amps have deadly voltages.
Any (youtube ok) gun videos in the works? XD
Next week bro!
You have TWO Dan-enbacker custom basses with different pickup/electronics??!!
They were custom builds for clients. Just waiting on final payment before I ship them off
Man, do I wish you weren't on the other side of the Pacific from Oz.
Was that a Gretsch?
Tone knob is only for distortion mode.
Makes sense. Except it still doesn’t work for distortion. At least mine doesn’t.
what is that riff
Just something I made up
Hey Dan, break out the screwdriver and let's have a look inside! lol
He only made 4 taquitos in the video, idk if I believe that 😂😂
Firstly, you’re right, it was totally staged. Secondly, you probably don’t have a 3 and 5 year old. 4 is all I need for them. Though I personally eat 8-10 myself.
Guns and Guitars We're one and the same brother, just had to yank your chain a little when I saw that 😂
2:08 how many jazz pickups can it fit???
Lol, that bass is for R&D for pickup placement. You can probably fit 6-8 jazz pickups in that massive cavity.
Guns and Guitars daaamn that's impressive
BTW, what kind of Bass is that?

You should check out the Honeytone amps by Danelectro. Sounds better and cost less. Would make a cool shoot out video.
They require batteries which is a deal breaker for me. I like that this one is rechargeable.
I’m still using iPhone 6 because having no headphone jack is Effin lame. I’m gonna buy a record player soon so I can have a good way to enjoy music. Thanks for pushing me in that direction Apple.
I have an vox amplug, great sound. Noise only for me
I've seen those, do you like it?
Guns and Guitars love it, for the price the distortion is surprisingly good (i have the metal version) and the clean is very good.
Made in japan
I have the amPlug2 Classic Rock, and I love it. Nice rock & blues distortion sounds, good clean sound, very handy.
Guns and Guitars - I have the Vox AmPlug bass version with the little speaker cab and it's awesome. Highly recommended.
I have a Mugig brand one and its all right, although it only does high gain tones. Also, I thought it was broke, but it turn out I needed to really shove the head phone jack to get it all the way in.
It is nothing special, but I guess it gets the job done.
What about the honeytone?
two reasons this one is better: 1) honeytone doesn't have an aux input, 2) honeytone uses a 9v battery, the donner is rechargeable, which is way better. Tone wise, I don't know, I haven't compared them back to back
Muse yeah!!
Vox Pathfinder 10. Get em used for $40.
Does it have a rechargeable battery? That’s a deal breaker for me
How do you charge it
Usb
@@GunsandGuitars oh thank you
Live Q&A!, saves you a ton of time so you dont have to edit the crap out of the video and maybe get good questions for us who want to learn more about the subject, just saying!
The only 2 amps I have right now are marshall tube amps so I NEED this.
I hate Logic pro, love this little amp. Bitchen!
I have ms-4. This looks much better
I've got an Orange Micro Terror and Dark... The Dark one has a headphone and an effects loop option... Not sure if that's what makes it dark but I'm not a valve/tube guy
I don't know my analogs from my digitals unless they're loud and clearly
You should check out www.musikding.de for DIY pedal kits... Then move on to printing your own decals for them
