A friendly first amp that sounds bigger than it looks, as long as you don't need it for gigs.

What is it?
A compact modelling amp with 20 amp models, built-in effects and a phone app for editing tones. It’s designed for practice at home rather than the stage.
Why we like it
Expert reviews praise its clean and crunch sounds at low volume, which is exactly where practice amps usually struggle. The headphone output and USB recording make it a sensible first purchase.
Should you buy it?
For a beginner or a bedroom player, yes. If you’re likely to join a band in the next year, spend a little more on something with more headroom.
