Monoprice 611502 Mini Headphone Amplifier for Guitar,"Tube Overdrive"

Description

As a musician you know you need to practice regularly to hone your skills and
learn new songs. However you can’t always break out the amps and crank up the
volume. For those times when quiet is required you can both practice and hear
the amplified output from your instrument using this Mini Headphone Amplifier
for Guitar from Monoprice! This amplifier is designed to provide amplification
to the output of instrument level devices such as electric guitars and bass
guitars. It features a 1/4″ TS plug which plugs directly into your
instrument’s output. It is powered by two AAA batteries (not included) and has
a 3.5mm TRS output for listening with headphones. An additional 3.5mm TRS
auxillary input is provided for connecting another audio source such as an mp3
player. The audio from the Aux jack is mixed with the audio from the guitar so
you can play along to an existing recording. This amplifier is produces a
“Tube Overdrive” sound with distortion and delay reminiscent of Classic Rock
performances. The amplifier includes analog Gain Tone and Volume controls.
Note: The distortion effect that this amplifier produces means that there will
necessarily be some background hiss/noise even at normal volume levels. If you
listen to the amplifier without it being plugged into a guitar the noise level
can be loud and pronounced. However when it is plugged into a guitar the
signal returns to a desirable noise level for playing.
