Great battery powered amp! More than loud enough, great amp models & effects.

Great little amp. Love being able to be more mobile with my playing. Clean sounds are impressive. Distortion settings are just ok but certainly sound good enough to keep the amp. I also just use the amp as a music speaker when I work out. I hook my iPad up to it just to play music. Overall very happy with this product.

I was seconds away from buying a Boss Mini Katana before I seen this. I played the two side by side and this one was louder. Plus this amplifier has more tones (10 on the Vox vs. 3 on the Mini Katana). The final decision was the AC adapter was included where the Boss Mini Katana didn't include one and it cost more than the Vox. The tones are pretty cool and even plugged in my acoustic electric guitar to it and it sounded good. I just wanted a smaller amp to use so I don't offend my neighbors at night. The salesman at Sam Ash was very nice and patient with me as I tested both amps out, asking questions and any other needs I had.

This little gem of a VOX amplifier can make more voices than my larger amplifier from a venerable American brand with a single-15 in. speaker and 40 watts of power. It's utterly amazing what sounds this small-sized giant-voiced amp can produce with 3 watts through a 5 in speaker. Don't underestimate it's voice! Jamming with other musicians, you soon learn it's got power to spare, and can hold its own among the big dogs. Like to stay up late and rehearse with jam tracks? No problem, you have a line in and line out/headphone jack so you can jam 'til dawn or at any time without bothering family or neighbors. I'm not a busker, but this amp is advertised to run for quite a long while on six AA batteries. Power supply came included with mine for us non-busker types. Couldn't be happier with this little dude. Best money I ever spent on a 7 x 9 x 8.5 in. mini-amp. At a little over $100 U.S., all I can say is what a bargain!

Love this amp! So much in such small package. And LOUD!!! Use it for guitar and singing practice so far...mic input is why I chose this amp. I see real possibilities for more uses like small venue performances. Modest price for all you get with this little soundbox! Has some nice onboard effects but I use it with my guitar pedals as well--sounds great either way! Have both the black and ivory colors...both look great but ivory color really pops! Really like how my telecaster sounds on this mini amp! Very happy with this amp!

Nice little amp I got for playing harmonica outside at camp and for that the Vox works well. I played with the delay and the spring reverb and they work fine. I have not played the amp with any other musicians and the amp was designed for guitar not harp. I would buy this amp again.

After playing acoustic for several years, I bought my first electric along with this amp to run it through about two months ago. Not being able to afford something more expensive, but still wanting something of decent quality, I was glad to see a Vox amp in the price range. I don't have much basis for comparison to other similarly sized amps, but I can say that I've been very impressed with this one so far. I like having the different models to play around with, though I typically stick with the AC15, AC30TB, and American Hi Gain, which all sound pretty darn good. Utilizing the compression and reverb, I was able to get some nice clean sounds out of the AC models for jazz work, and the American Hi Gain sounds nice for the fuzzy punk sound that I like. I felt pretty comfortable using this for recording a batch of songs recently, and they came out surprisingly well. While it's only a three-watt amp, I've found that the Hi Gain model can get pretty decent volume. I could definitely see using the amp mic'd up for a coffee house gig or similar venue. The features on the whole make this a great amp for practicing. Being able to use headphones is great for apartment living and cohabitation. The strap is a little ridiculous and worthless, but you can easily pick the thing up with one hand, so it's not really an issue. I can't speak to the battery life as I've only used it plugged in, but I was told by the Sam Ash salesman that it would last about 8 hours. Overall, I'm very happy with this amp and couldn't see upgrading until I can afford an amp that I would keep permanently, such as an actual AC15.

Small-size amp dovetails with a Kala Traveler Ukulele (electric) and clip-on mic'd harnessed harmonica ...seperate cables plug into the amp, with the harmonica/voice mic feed pure, and all kinds of effects for the uke. I can carry the whole rig on a bicycle. Sound/effects quality is beautiful. I waited for the "classic" design model of the amp with the cool grill and I'm glad I did. I can't imagine something better for the size - it is plenty loud.

I use this amp with with a travel guitar that has nice tone, but not much power. I thought i might have to use a guitar unit that I have to boost the sound, and have more tonal choices, but with this amp I don't have to. The simulations are clean, even cranked up all the way, and the effects are very useable. just tweak things the way you want them. Runs on battery power, and with rechargables, this baby is well worth it. The size and portability are cool as well. You probably won't find something with all these features and sound at this price. Get this! It will make you smile.
