Guitar Amp Portable 5W, Plug in Mini Electric Guitar Amplifier, Rechargeable Pocket Guiatr Amp Combo with Bluetooth, Built-in Multi Effects, Clean Overdrive Distortion Reverb

OK, you're not going to wow the crowds at the Marquee or Fillmore with this, but for practising and perhaps jamming with friends it is brilliant. Being able to just plug this in, no lead, no external amp, and just play is so convenient, even if you've only got a spare 10 minutes (where normally you wouldn't want to make the effort to setup). It goes loud enough to cause the wife to complain (well it would if I dared!), and the three effect types are well chosen, going from a clean sound with a little reverb, a modest overdrive/distortion where you can still hear bum notes (like it or not, when you practice you do need to hear when you're playing it wrong), to a satisfying heavy distortion where you can just sit back and enjoy playing. It's rechargeable (USB type) and seems to go for a reasonable time on a single charge. I thoroughly recommend this little device, but one word of warning. Although it suggests it will fit Fender Strats with their recessed input sockets, the jack plug wouldn't fully insert on mine. As I was enjoying using it on a Les Paul but wanted to use it on the Strat, I bought a flat input plate (made by Montreux Parts and purchased from Armstrong Music in the UK), which solved it. If your guitar has the input socket on the edge or top mounted (not recessed) you shouldn't have an issue. The unit has a bluetooth function as well, allowing you to pair it to a device (such as your phone) and play music through the Lekato, whether for a backing track or just to have some sounds. I haven't tried that as yet. Overall it seems nicely made, too (it is, of course, made in China, so that comment isn't always a given).

I think it's a great piece of kit, I've got much bigger amps but the problem is the noise travels through the flats above me, this is perfect for practicing at a reasonable level, only bit I don't like is the distorted tone, it's loud and doesn't work for me, but I haven't played about with all the settings yet, definitely worth the money and I can practice in my garden or anywhere with this.

I bought this as a budget friendly alternative to a Tonewood amp. My main aim was to get a similar kind of reverb effect on acoustic and classical guitar, as the Tonewood and Yamaha transacoustic do, rather than to create substantial added volume or special effects etc. I anticipated correctly, that the clean sound would be limited in scope, due to the very small speaker size. The device is well made and very efficient in its functions. It is excellent on any number of guitars and basses. It charges, via USB, in very short time, and lasts really well in its charged state. It has clean, overdrive and distortion options as well as reverb (and Bluetooth facility). Tone and volume are well calibrated and the whole thing is very user-friendly. It plugs directly into the instrument and situates itself fairly unobtrusively once engaged, depending on where the jack socket is positioned on the guitar. How long it will last is yet to be found out, I’ve only had it for three weeks, but it looks rather promising in that dept. I have found to my delight that the very thing I bought it for, it does extremely well, that is, to add a deep and rich reverb to acoustic guitars. It actually can add some extra volume too - as long as modest settings are selected. With electric guitars, the clean sound is ok, if only very modest in volume - before it breaks up rather badly. The overdrive and distortion options on electrics on the other hand, are quite something. Here, the small speaker isn’t a disadvantage, and quite loud, smooth, creamy and sustained tones are available. I found that Strat style inputs were probably favourable, but it works well with any type. If any swaying movement of the unit is a problem, a small piece of tape will secure it in place perfectly. I am very impressed with this item and really glad I came across it. The price was right too, as they say. My only suggestion for any improvement would be if they could make one around twice the size (the speaker especially), with slightly more in the way of (clean sound) volume, then it would be completely unbeatable. I would thoroughly recommend this unit to anyone looking to try something new in the mini amp experience. It’s a lot of fun and if used in certain ways, could be thought of as groundbreaking.

Great little amp...5w enough for practicing and not worrying about neighbours.Great to be cable free too as my flat is small.Effects work well.

I’m genuinely impressed with this LEKATO 5W portable guitar amp. For such a compact unit, the sound quality is far better than expected. It’s clear, punchy, and more than enough for home practice. Next to zero issues with distortion or vibration when on normal mode. I purchased for use with a bass guitar as other similar products on offer do not mention compatability with the low frequencies of a bass guitar. The plug-in design is a real highlight. No cables, no fuss, just plug straight into your guitar and play. It’s ideal when you want to grab a quick session without setting up a full amp. The rechargeable battery is another big plus. Usual USB C fitting . It comes with lead but you need your own phone style charger. It lasts well through multiple sessions and charges quickly, which makes it very practical for everyday use. Controls are simple but effective. You can get a nice clean tone or add a bit of drive depending on what you’re playing. The reverb option is quite nice , even with the bass guitar. The bluetooth option works really well allowing you to stream music through it and also have volume on your guitar as a mixed sound , great for practise.. Please note , when blue toothing music the volume is controlled from the source of the music, so make sure you have it turned down to start with . Build quality feels solid, and it’s small enough to keep in your gig bag or even a pocket. Overall, excellent value for money. A very handy piece of kit that I use far more than I expected. Highly recommended for beginners and experienced players alike.

Decent volume level, basic distortion and rev. Also chargable.

Pour jouer chez soi tranquillement dans le salon, sur mon électrique (epiphone) ou mon electro acoustique (fender) cela reste sympa et agréable. Ça évite de faire trop de bruit avec un ampli mais correct pour se corriger lorsque l on répète. 😉

Five great stars. Really great sounding.

Al di sopra delle aspettative. Un oggetto fra i piu' utili ( se non indispensabili ) per chi vuole esercitarsi, mantenendo una qualità di suono, volume ed effetti molto più che buoni. Se dovessi, a posteriori, elencare gli accessori più utili per un chitarrista lo metterei decisamente ai primi posti. Molto consigliato!

Mini mais grand pour les possibilités de jeux, le plus Bluetooth pratique pour jouer sur des play-back

Tengo un mini Marshall Ms2 comprado con la intención de practicar con la guitarra sin necesidad de enchufar amplis o pods. Realmente suena a chicharra. Un horror. Solo sirve de adorno. Desmotiva completamente. Dejé a un lado estos miniamplis, pero al probar este LEKATO JA 05G me sorprendió. Es muy pequeño pero cumple muy bien su misión. Realmente no suena nada mal para la potencia y tamaño que tiene. Es ideal para practicar, componer o para viaje. Muy práctico y funcional. La reverb mezclada con las tres posiciones de limpio, overdrive y distorsión suena muy bien. Sin perder la perspectiva de lo que es claro. El único inconveniente que le veo es que el peso no está equilibrado por delante y atrás, y se gira con demasiada frecuencia una vez lo enchufas en la guitarra. Es algo molesto esto. Porque el altavoz se gira hacia el interior. Quizás en una strato no ocurra, pero tambien he leído por aquí que con algunos modelos de Strato no encaja bien el jack. Probado con una Les Paul y una Ibanez de caja. Buen precio y funcional.
