The world's smallest and least expensive U.S.-made guitar amp!

About the size of a cigarette pack, amazingly it can drive a 4 x 12 cabinet. (We didn't believe it either, so we tried it. And, sure enough, through the magic of technology, it was actually loud and sounded great, though the battery didn't hold out long.) It responds to the volume knob on your guitar and generates a sweet and convincing tube amp overdrive when cranked. It has its own built-in speaker. It can also be used on the input of another amp as a fuzz box.

Smokey Mini Amp Features:

Great tube amp tone
Sympathetic overdrive
Tiny size
Speaker out jack (can be used with headphones that have their own volume control)

Where else are you going to find a real amp you can carry in your shirt pocket? Go ahead, put it in the cart.

Nice amount of volume!...But it's all about distortion. No Clean setting so it's going back!

got this amp close to 10 years ago, I drive truck and got it for use there do to small space, it has taken alot of abuse over the years and it is still going strong, if you dont try to drive a cabinet with it the battery will last a very long time sounds good for such a small compact amp, If I ever lose or destroy this one I will definately Buy another.

SO worth it

Great for practice, as a travel amp (find something to protect the speaker). What I LOVE this thing for is finding funky little environments for recording. In a candy tin, a nice wood drawer, you can get some great stuff out of this thing. The uses for this thing vs. the price make it a no-brainer, and a great stocking-stuffer for any guitarists you might know.

A friend gave me one of these for Christmas around 5 or 6 years ago. It has been one of the most used presents that I have ever gotten for Christmas. I use it at home to practice through my headphones so not to wake up my wife (careful with the volume control). I have used it to push a 4x12 Marshall cab and Oh MY GOD that thing sounded great. If this one ever died (don't see how with all of the abuse I have given it)I would definately buy another one. The speaker does distort as you turn up the volume on your guitar, but hey they tell you that up front.

BUY ONE!

This is the best amp for portability which is why anyone would buy a mini amp in the first place. I usually use a patch cord to plug into it and use a rubber band to strap it to the guitar strap so I can walk all over the house or down the street while playing. It's kinda like a poor man's wireless system. It's lots of fun!
