Fender Mini '57 Twin Guitar Amp Review

By Steven Dean


Mini amplifiers give you the flexibility of playing wherever you would like, when you need. Whether or not you are in your college dormitory, on the road or just lounging in your room. The Fender Mini '57 Twin-Amp is a good little practice amp and can churn out a pretty good sound if you are realistic about what to expect.

Specifications:

This Fender Mini '57 Twin-Amp has all the fundamental requirements encased in a cool, vintage design for people that are always on a tight schedule or who do not have the benefit of playing at full volume.

- Power: One-watt
- 2" x 2" speakers
- Distortion/Overdrive
- 9V jack power adapter
- Headphone jack
- Tweed outer cover for a nice vintage look

Why this amplifier is ideal for you

- You travel a lot and would really like to bring your guitar and your amp with you and require something light and easy to carry.
- You are only starting on guitar and need an amp to use in the comforts of your own room.
- You're a fan of everything retro from the sound to the looks of this amp.

More positive feedback

This small package actually captures the quintessence of having a practice amp with a fashionable surrounding, to boot. The sound quality for a single watt practice amp is reasonably good and is perfect to be used within your own room. The power adaptor included in the package is extremely handy since you may fry the circuits of the amp if you plug it in on it's own. At the least you needn't get a new 9V adaptor for this one.

Look at another type of amplifier if

- You want more diversifications in effects (since some practice amp do have a selection of effects built in).
- You would like this to be a substitute CD player (since you do not have a CD jack in this model).
- You want to practice the particular sound of your playing so that implies you want a more powerful amplifier to mimic the sound of being on stage.
- You want a practice amp that may go side by side with the whole band playing with you.
