Fender Mini '57 Twin Amp

At this price, you have a great sound, perfect as a travel mate for your guitar. It's nicely built, looks amazing, sounds like a fender, even if it's a toy. They made it to preserve some nuances of the fender sound, which I really appreciate. Absolutely recommended, even if it sounds like....what it's supposed to sound at this price! I also used it as a overdrive pedal (heard of some mods you can do to add a footswitch and bypass some wires to make it sound like a pedal) anyway I didn't do it, I just plugged it in my signal chain, it took a lot of volume off but gave back a nice overdriven sound to my amp, even if a bit compressed. Apart from these experiments, it's a great buy, take it if you want fun on a budget!

I use this little fender in my fx chain to get an overdriven sound before going into my recording interface. you get a surprisingly solid sound, low noise and quite a range of colors from very clean to really dirty.

the speaker itself sounds too thin for my taste, but if you want something really small for travelling, practicing or fooling around at home, it's totally sufficient, and really not bad at all!

build quality is very good + the thing looks really nice.

only problem - the 9v input doesn't work with my harley benton powerplant, so i'll need to buy a power supply.

This is a nice little practice amp for when low volume is important. I find the gain to be very harsh, and putting volume knob past half way stresses it so much that the sound suffers badly, but it can deliver a very nice clean sound for quiet personal practice. Be realistic; don't expect much low end and don't imagine it will be useful in any kind of jam session but, for such a small speaker, it's a good little amp. And the headphone jack is very useful for absolutely quiet practice, although the headphone sound is hissy. I suggest you use a power supply as the battery life can be quite short.
