    Cactus Tube Amps amp in a can 'cactus can'Published on 01/27/08 at 01:09
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Small transistor amp
    The website 5W, but the ear is unidquement distortion in my opinion
    between a jack, a headphone jack (which does not cut the HP??)
    a switch clean / distortion
    operates on a 9V battery (not industry)

    UTILIZATION

    Super simple, no manual (ben is)
    for audio, see below

    SOUNDS

    Okay so if you want to clean you have to play the low volume of micro trs (and thus volume general), if a crunch right now
    with crunch and distortion, well it's pretty mtallique which makes sense since this is a can
    it's pretty dirty, but funny
    there is a video on the site

    OVERALL OPINION

    OVERALL OPINION

    Both say immediately, I bought this thing out of pure gadget curiosities and saw the rate of the dollar came back 40 euros including postage!
    Jumbo is a cop, so easy to transport, as it is on battery ...
    I use it not in RPET (: D) but in my room or in front of my pc (which is in my office) for quick cuts rpter
    the sound is not really famous, but frankly who cares
    a practice can be among friends, outside, etc ... and you have no outlet, which is really easy
    So I put 8 because it fulfilled its terms of reference
    I have a 100W Marshall, a Vox 5W (real ones, that runs on the sector (the batteries are almost impossible to find and expensive) and so now the one I have so all configs possible following the occasions.

    First of all, I want to point out that I own the second version of the Amp in a Can

    Solid-state amp hand-assembled in the USA in a 71-cl Heineken can.

    This version has been outfitted with stickers.

    9 volt battery operation

    2 watts

    Bass or guitar input, speaker output

    Clean/lead switch

    Waterproof speaker ^^

    UTILIZATION

    Extremely easy

    I didn't buy this amp to get a good sound but to have the possibility to play anywhere anytime.

    No user's manual (but you won't need one).

    SOUNDS

    The crunch sounds a bit metallic but it's not bad at all.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've owned it for almost six months. I like its rock n roll style and its very good value for money.

    I wouldn't hesitate and buy it again.
