Small pre-amp headphone equipped with a jack that plugs directly into the guitar, different settings: Volume, Tone, Blend. It also has a headphone jack and an auxiliary input for plugging in an external device. One button on / off function and FX (effect)
Uses 2 x LR3 with a duration of approximately 20h, it is very light

UTILIZATION

use is very simple. The "blend" replaces the gain and transforms your acoustic sound

SOUND QUALITY

Blend button is used primarily to turn your electric acoustic sound, exactly like a Boss AC-2 or 3 .... Amplug except that the fact so well.
To hear the difference you really wear a headphone and a good listener. And there, it's true we mean a net difference (albeit not necessarily transcendent), which could have been really nice if the unit was not blowing as much.
In fact, once you start pushing buttons, the sound is invaded by a mega blast which suddenly totally ruins it. It's a shame because in listening carefully one realizes that the small craft had good potential, but the huge drawback is that the breath does not play with long because it drunk!
For the "FX" ... it gives you an acoustic sound a little different, but it is not obvious, since it is covered by the blast, it changes very little ...

OVERALL OPINION

The only use of this device is to have a guitar home when you have no amp ... must be used that way, without pushing the buttons, it is useless, so just a little guitar home, ok, but nothing more ... Damage, the Vox should completely review and we lay something much better, because if you really want to transform your acoustic sound, it has to be connected to the output of a Boss AC-2 or 3, otherwise it is not only!
