    • Great product, easy to use and so versatile. Plus great customer service!
Color: Black
I received my product for Christmas from my wife 1.5 years ago. This is a great product for not only practice but to play with others as well. The software works great on IOS devices, interacts with YouTube and Spotify for learning songs, and sounds great. With the addition of the Spark Cab it's a monster! Recently, I had an issue with it. It was out of warranty, so I expected to pay to have it fixed. But instead, they issued me a new one with no costs. Talk about customer service! ... show more

    • Very cool little amp!
Color: Black
Review Image by Chad L. Chad L.
I really 100% wish this had been available back when I started playing -- it would be a great way for beginners (young or old) to get started playing guitar -- perfect for that! The apps make it easy to choose a custom amp/rig sound, or to search for other players' recommendations on which rigs can help you get certain sounds (i.e. like how to make your rig sound like certain songs from bands like Deftones vs the tones/sounds from various songs by Alice in Chains, or Foo Fighters, etc. ) Here's what I love about it: The amp is also great because of the onboard controls and ability to shape sound -- even if you didn't use the app at all! It has great sound (at 40 watts not LOUD loud but absolutely fine for beginners and/or as a spare practice amp for others (how I plan to use it myself.) It has a switch with 7 different core amp modeling sounds (Acoustic, Bass, Clean, Glassy, Crunch, Hi-Gain, Metal.) This is awesome because you can simply plug in your guitar and start playing with that huge range of tones and sounds -- so you don't need to go buying effects pedals out right out of the gate (TONS of sound shaping options here for the price, and being built right into the amp.) In addition - you also have built in Delay, Reverb and Modulation --- that's three more effects you get to experiment with but not have to buy separate pedals as you get started! They have some cool ideas going with the way it can bring in a 'virtual drummer' or bassist to accompany what you're playing - how cool is that!? (It's not perfect, but what in life is? In this case -- it's all software (in the app) so they can upgrade/enhance it over time -- which is the absolute miracle about living in this age of tech. So like with other gear out there - this product and experience could get better and better, it all depends on how the company supports it over time --- but their website and customer forums/support section seem very solid and active -- my gut says this product will keep getting better...) For me, since I've been playing for years (too many to admit) and have accumulated lots of amps and effects -- I mainly bought this amp for the amp modeling functionality through the app, and to see what the 'virtual drummer' and bassist would be like... if I remember back to my 'beginner' days this amp with the app functionality would have been PERFECT... (and I'm looking forward to seeing how this company supports/enhances the functionality of the app - I've been impressed so far so I'm optimistic!) If all that wasn't enough -- it can also be used as a bluetooth device or powered speaker also! For this price -- it does a whole lot in such a small package -- perfect for beginners, but also useful and well worth the small price for 'veterans' like myself who always have a way to use an extra little practice amp! ... show more

    • The Only AMP youll need
Color: Pearl
This is by far the best AMP I have bought. The leather finish is beautiful . the AMP itself is impressive, and saved me so much money. I would have spent $300+ on different effect pedals and all the wiring for them but with this its all built in which I really like. It allows me have my tone nearly exact to different songs I've been trying to play. The Controls and the buttons on the AMP feel really solid. The app isn't the best when it comes to the user interface so dialing the virtual nobs feels strange and unresponsive. But overall I think this is the only AMP I'll ever buy. ... show more

    • Versatile amplifier, drum machine, Bluetooth player in one
Color: Black
This product worked right out of the box; I had no problem connecting the app to the amp, which is what it's all about. From the app (on tablet or phone) you adjust the sound of the amp and various effects boxes; it is a virtual pedal board. Basic adjustments to gain, volume, modulation, delay and reverb effects can also be made via hardware knobs on the amp. There is a main output level control for playing with full effects at a lower listening level. The other set of features pertains to the ability of the app/amp to play its own music, either over Bluetooth, or from a built-in bass and drum machine. If you play a song from YouTube, Apple Music or Spotify it will listen to the music and analyze the song for chord structure and rhythm. It will then tell you what chords to play as the song progresses. A feature called Smart Jam listens to you play your own music, then composes a selection of bass and drum tracks to play along with you. Overall, it's a versatile and fun practice amp. The 4 inch stereo speakers make a large sound image; it fills the room with sound. It isn't really made for playing live with other instruments though, as the 40 Watt power output might not really be loud enough. Also, while it's very lightweight it does not run on batteries. That's going to limit where you want to take it. Best just to set it up in your studio and have a blast practicing and jamming along. Edited to add: I finally connected the amp to my computer via USB, and was disappointed. Even after downloading and installing drivers I had terribly long latency when transferring digital audio from amp to PC. The driver said it was ASIO compatible, but it only showed up as MMC in Cakewalk. Instead I'm now using the amp's headphone output jack to transfer audio to PC via a separate analog-to-digital interface which does run ASIO, with almost no lag. Sound quality recorded on the PC is not bad this way. ... show more
