This is by far our favorite feature of the Pocket POD. The Bottom Line : The Pocket POD is an ideal option for the musician desiring a headphone solution with the flexibility to play live, record and tweak until the cows come home. These bugs have three rotary controllers: drive, tone and volume. Like other guitar headphone amplifiers, the Donner series has an auxiliary input, allowing you to connect an MP3 player and jam along with your favorite tunes.
Our favorite feature of this collection is without a doubt the bang-for-buck nature of the products. Each bug comes with a splitter for the headphones, a stereo male to male cable, and a USB charging cable. The lithium battery has up to 15 hours charge and can be recharged via USB—no need to worry about running out of batteries.
As such, the harmonic distortion of the units is like that of a larger amplifier. If authentic guitar amplifier simulation or tonal flexibility is what you seek, you might want to look elsewhere.
It may look like a toy, but it most certainly is not. The Danelectro N Honeytone is a 1W mini electric guitar combo amplifier. This combo has three knobs and an input jack. This straight-to-the-point design allows you to plug your guitar jack cable into the input and dial up a great tone in seconds.
The amplifier can be powered by 9V battery for full portability, or it can be powered by a Danelectro DA-1 adapter for longer life. The volume knob will turn the Honeytone on and the volume up. Gain determines the amount of distortion applied to the signal. The tone control adjusts the balance between bass and treble. We really appreciate the simplicity of this guitar headphone amp. Yes, this review is focused on guitar headphone amps , but we have to say that having a speaker is an enormous plus for us.
One of the secrets of a massive guitar tone is to use a small guitar amp. Ever heard of the Pignose? The Pignose was one of the first portable guitar amplifiers available on the market, and it has been used to create some of the most desired recorded guitar sounds in history.
Behringer is a company known for creating budget versions of more expensive pieces of popular music equipment. The V-amp 3 is no exception, and you are forgiven if you thought it was a POD at first glance. The V-amp 3 is a virtual guitar amplifier that doubles as an audio interface. The V-amp 3 comes loaded with 32 amplifier emulations, 15 cabinet emulations and 16 classic effects.
The V-amp3 has really nailed it with connectivity. We really like the ability to hook MIDI up to the device to synchronize time-based effects. The headphone output is next to the guitar input, and there is also an auxiliary in with an independent level control to allow you to connect your MP3 player and play along to your favorite tracks. Pro Tip: keep the gain low! Cheaper guitar amplifier emulators tend to sound best with lower gain.
The higher the gain, the more digital and unrealistic they tend to sound. The final control on the left side of the V-amp 3 is the amp selector. Like what you hear? Allow us to suggest some options. Most of the setups below presume that you have access to a fast internet connection, but this setup is for the portable purist.
Best part? Zero notifications — just on-the-go fidelity. In fact, we like downcycling our own iDevices at home for music playback. That may still not give you a lick of clarity, but behind the scenes there are some upsides. Until recently, high resolution audio has been a wild wild west of baffling definitions and fringe notions driven by parsimonious agendas in nerdish statecraft. We loved it for its compactness and big performance per dollar.
Tip: though they work admirably with the onboard amplification turned off we recommend keeping them on. No cantankerous logos or confusing construction — the P7s fit right in at the office, backyard or in Monaco. We asked Ben Webster, a veteran of the music industry and cofounder of Mass Fidelity , to curate a playlist of 10 songs he would recommend for testing your home setup or for auditioning hi-fi components.
Here are his selections and a few word about them. The Three Degrees, Maybe — A great range of female vocals and great horns. Bahamas, Lost in the Light — Male vocals. Click Here.

Thread starter Zaboleqqq Start date Jul 23, Tags amp modelers guitar headphones irig. Zaboleqqq Member.
Messages Hello fellow guitar players and not only! So far I was practicing guitar 10 months now, best time ever using my PC. What I can do is practice in small bedroom and I can't setup PC there. This is why I've started to looking for something more portable which will allow me to get good sound through headphones and is quite portable.
Problem is I really don't know which option is best and I can't just try everything without spending load of money. They are really great. I've found few options available and It would be great if You would help me choose right. I could also use iPad for Guitar pro and for Youtube videos which are quite helpful when it comes to learning new songs. Zoom reviews are really good and I guess it should be quite easy to get my favorite tones.
The one real big disadvantage is sound from headphone output but I guess it is common thing for most modeling amps. I had THR 10 and headphone output was just bad compared to sound from speaker. The only problem is that I will not be able to play through speaker so often probably Vox amplug2 mini amps - looks and sound really cool but have very limited capabilities. I will probably buy metal version because it is great for minutes practice sessions.
Maybe I'm missing some options here but I've really tried to do good research. Maltese Fan Member. Messages 2, I use a Line 6 Pocket Pod for when I travel. Has some great metal tones in it. It can run off a 9 volt adapter or batteries. FracStrat Platinum Supporting Member. Messages 1, This after your pedals.. Perfect for building into your pedalboard too!!
Guitarzan00 Member. Not sure if you have a max budget, but if you could find a used helix LT I think you would be very pleased. Lots of positive things about the amplifire products too.
