Peeps love or hate 'em! This is my 3rd. 1 piece pallet 3 string slide git, hole in mid-body, Danelectro Honeytone strapped on behind it, pup embedded high up neck, cable down to amp. KILLER sound, zero feedback. Live shows w. mic'ed git into p.a.! YES! Pics and vid clip when fully finished! -Glenn

Doug, thx. I just use good quality 9 volts, so far so good. As I say, I love 'em for busking and for an amp-in-guitar I love the tone, volume, size and as you'll see, even the belt clip helps hold 'er on the git :) I'll have a look at the amp you mention. -Glenn
Looking forward to the video clip Glenn! I've got one of these that I power with a Ryobi Inverter instead of feeding it batteries. I have used it for several years while struggling with buzzing components and have stripped everything off I can. It helped some, but still not completely happy with it. Recently purchased a rechargeable 15-watt 2-channel Acoustic/Electric Amp from Coolmusic on Amazon and am very happy with it.
Uncle John, yep! I've used sooo many mini-amps and frankly, favor the cheap ones. This is so over the top for appx. 25 bucks, so whoopee! I've a Pignose and others as well but keep coming around to this as it's not too loud but cookin'. I needed something like this for the "guitar-in-amp" concept, only it's outside of the git strapped and (yup) rubber-banded to the back of the git. Hope to post the final project in the next day or two. Got a 100 watt battery powered, toooooo loud and for this, far too big. -Glenn
I like em' Glenn. Had one. My LONG TERM go to amp is a Roland Micro Cube. A good step up in sound and modeling and still can run on batteries.
Indeed BrianQ, my thoughts also. And 1.5 watts, ha!! Big sound in cheapo lil' plastic case. -Glenn
Yeah, they get lots of haters, but people like it so much, that there's a guitar pedal based off the distortion side of this amp? One watt never sounded so good!
