Jamming late at night? Don't want to wake the neighbors? Maybe you want to work out a lick with your MP3 player without taking the time to set up your amp. You want to play guitar right now. amPlug is the answer. Simply plug this palm-sized headphone guitar amp directly into your guitar, and enjoy serious guitar sound anywhere, anytime. It's even available in three different sound styles: VOX AC30, Classic Rock, based on a UK-made amplifier head, and Metal, based on a California-made high-gain amplifier head. Even with its ultra-compact size, amPlug perfectly reproduces the complex and warm distortion that is distinctive of a vacuum tube, as well as the powerful high gain produced by a large amp stack. Using all new analog modeling technology, amPlug delivers full-fledged amp sound.

4Sound quality is great, build quality, not so much  Nov 19, 2008
I picked this up last night, it sounds great, but the headphone jack immediately grenaded. For 40 bucks, you'd think they would build this thing to last more than ten minutes, but hey, it's made in China, what do you expect....

I was surprised how similar to an AC30 this little toy actually sounds. A very cool toy, now I just have to get one that doesn't fall apart.

5A Great Bargain!  Jan 28, 2008
I bought this to be able to practice anywhere without bothering other people. I'm going to buy a travel electric to use with it. Directly into the guitar you have a clean signal with volume, tone and gain controls. However in my home studio I plugged it into the last pedal in my chain and was able to get great sound, even with all pedals on at the same time. In fact it sounds as good as my regular amp! This was a pleasant surprise. It's made of plastic, so I wonder how durable it will be, but for $40 can one really complain?

5Perfect practice tool!  Jan 16, 2008
I have always thought of getting some sort of small headphone amp to plug into my guitar and practice with while lounging on the couch or around the house.

When I saw that Vox had made something that fit that description, I wasted no time in ordering this. I have a Vox Tonelab and just love it. This little do-dad is easy to use...thumb wheel controls for Gain, Tone and Volume. There is an Aux jack to plug in a CD or MP3 player to jam along with, and then of course there is the headphone out for your choice of headphones.

The analog circuitry inside is said to emulate AC30 amp, and I think it really does sound more like an amp than a tiny headphone amp. The Gain and Tone controls give you a pretty good control on tones either dirty and distorted or chiming and clean. I think you could even take the headphone out of this and go to a recording device to get a different tone for solos or recording projects as something different!

My take is that this little do-dad is well worth the $39.99 price tag!
