I’ve been curious about these little Hotone amps for some time, and the combination of a sale price and the arrival of my Prime dividend convinced me to finally buy one. I ordered the Mojo Diamond as I’m not interested in metal tones, and I am a big fan of classic Fender sounds. I connected it to three different cabinets for test: Two homemade reflex cabinets with 8” Eminence Beta speakers, and a Mojotone with a 12” Eminence guitar speaker. My impression? This is an awesome little amp. I expected a flimsy little plastic and sheet metal box, but this is a really solid unit, built on a cast aluminum box. It’s got some mass, and doesn’t slide around. The gain and tone controls have a lot of range. Gain and volume interact much like the original- and you crank down the volume, the tone rolls off. My favorite settings were with the volume at 3 o’clock or higher, and the gain between noon and max. That gives you a great clean tone with crunch that rolls on in a very controllable way, using my Hahn tele. There’s plenty of volume, and you could almost gig with this in a very small setting with an efficient cabinet. I think it’s great for jamming, home practice, and recording. Noise level isn’t super low, but with the amp cranked, it’s low enough. I think I’ll be keeping this one for a long time.

So I am in the club of those that love what Mesa Rectifiers can do, but can't bring themselves to spend the money (Or even budget) for one. Furthermore, to get the tones and abilities of one requires a bit higher volume. After a bit of research, I came across this little bad boy and pulled the trigger for one. This little banger is such a joy to have. I play it through a single 15" Mesa Angled cab, and it sounds so darn good! It has a great crunch, rich tone and will totally put you in the zone when playing it. Also, the features take it to another level! An effects poop, aux in, headphone out, 3 band eq (bass, mid, treble). Combine all this its price AND compact size make this a MUST HAVE! NOW keep in mind, it's a single channel 5 watt, so you may hit a limit pushing a 4x12, I honestly don't know, as I don't have a 4x12, but ai imagine it would at least push a 2x12. Also, being single channel means even with gain all the way down, it's gonna have grit to it, which isn't bad, just something to bare in mind. I happen to also own the MOJO Diamond and THAT is a killer clean amp, but this review isn't FOR that amp, this is a Heart Attack review. If you'd like to hear BOTH amps in a review video, I have the 15min review video posted on my YouTube, just search Ezra Paco Hotone and the video will come up. All in all, you gotta get one of these little bangers of you want that Rectifier ability without the price and bulk of a Mesa Head.

This little guy is pretty cool. I got this because i had a gift card. I liked the idea that it emulated an SVT, which it pretty much does. It has some nice features like an aux in and headphone jack for paracticing through headphones. It also features an effects loop whick is pretty nice for the price. My band has had a lot of gigs cancelled due to covid so we have been having some low volume rehearsals. I plugged this into my 15" 350watt SWR speaker and was pleasantly surprised. I had the gain at 10:00 and the volume at max. It sounded very good and the volume was very adequate to jam with the guitars. No, it will not compete with a loud drummer, but it is great for low volume reharsal.

I'm building a small combo just for fun summer project; this amp was recommended by friend. The very 1st youtube review, guy with ALOT of followers, is super negative; he totally slams this amp. He hooks it up to a 4x12 cabinet to test 🤦♂️ I found a review vid where someone put the time effort into getting the most out of this amp and its really really great for the size and solid state. When you consider the price thats even better. This amp is a two-trick pony; clean, and crunch. In my opinion that's it; the super high distortion doesn't sound good at all. BUT... the clean and crunch sound ridiculously good for what this amp is, AND it takes OD pedals extremely well! I'm going to pair this with an eminence 6.5" driver in an open back cab that i'm building. When i tested it i hooked it up to celestion 12T-100 and eminence "special design" (for fender); both 1x12 open back cabs. When trying pedals i had it going direct to board and out through studio monitors. Clean with verb and delay is fantastic (for what the amp is) thru fx loop. At one point with klon clone and SC strat, probably an hour just jammin; sounds really good. Surprisingly decent guitar vol rolloff response for a modeler imo. Personally i like OD into input; not through fx loop. But i did test and i think most people would think its fine. This doesn't compare to an actual tube amp. If you want a tube amp then get one. I don't know who this is marketed toward (probably people way younger than me); i guess it might be useful on the floor board, but i just don't know how.

I love it! This little beast is perfect for practice. I’m using professional headphones and the sound is great. I streamed drum tracks through my iPad and was able to mix with the iPad volume and gain control. It’s a great practice tool (I can play plugged in without bugging the family!). AND I plugged it into a 2x10 4ohm cabinet and it pushed that too!! 5w won’t blow the ceiling off but it can be heard! Pros: SIZE: It’s the size of a guitar pedal! Hand in pic for scale. Now instead of a huge amp on the floor, I have this on my bookcase. TONE: the eq works great! SOUND: clear and I can tell the difference from bass to bass. AUX IN & HEADPHONE JACK: 3.5mm! No adaptors necessary! Cons: Size: gets crowded quick with all the cables, and the knobs are small, so if you have thick fingers, be aware! A little “hissy”, but that could be my cable, house wiring, or any myriad of reasons. Cord: a little short, but it is a grounded 18v adaptor and it’s pretty compact. Side note- product picture has tan knobs and mine were black. A little nit-picky, but I do like the tan. Summary: if you want a compact practice amp that has great tone, this is great!! I showed it to my friend who’s a pro bass player and he ordered one too. Great features, great sound, great price. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed!

I already have an actual Mesa Rectifier. But I'm always on the look out for other Rectifier tones on the lower price range. From small amps like the Heart Attack to even plugins. I kept seeing reviews about the Heart Attack being noisy and useless. So I was a little worried. But im happy to say it was a pleasant surprise. The Heart Attack is prob one of the best high gained amps ive ever played that was under $200. It even has an effects loop. Can't beat that. Not to mention it really does have the Rectifier tones. Oh and remember it's only 5watts. So it won't be powerful enough for a live band setting. This is definitely being added into my studio amp rack for recording purposes though. As for the noise...I didn't hear anything out of the ordinary that is expected from a high gained amp. If the noise bothers you just get a noise gate. Its what I do. I highly recommend the Fortin ZUUL. Its very transparent. So my conclusion...Just get it. Even if its your 1st amp or like myself just an extra amp for fun...Just get it. You won't regret it. P.S. I play mine through a Two Notes Torpedo Live. Sounds awesome. But if you are gonna get a cab...Just make sure to get the right one for it.

This little guy is well built, and can actually drive a Marshall 412 cabinet with decent tones. However, it is somewhat noisy no matter what. If you can live with the noise, well, its OK and does the job as an in home practice amp. It is inexpensive, well built, looks cool as could be, and has a nice set of controls to shape your tone. It is loud enough for home use and probably a little more than you really need.

I ordered/received this pre-amp last weekend, so I don’t have much experience with using it except for solo practice for last weekend. I don’t have a cabinet to play through and mainly wanted to get bedroom amp which I could use with a pair of headphones. I didn’t want a combo practice amp (Fender B-DEC) any longer, and wanted the space back as well. Bass : Squier Vintage J-Bass Headphones : Cowin E7 & Skull Candy Hesh2 First Test (Pass) It lit up when I plugged it into the power strip, and wasn’t DOA Second Test (Pass) Find the gain / volume mix for the headphones I landed on both the gain and volume at 10:00 for my own rehearsal needs last weekend - leaving plenty of both for something bigger. Third Test (Pass) What’s the sound like with tone knobs (bass/mid/treble) at 12:00 Guitar’s neck and bridge pickups wide open, with the tone knob at 50% The result was a very warm sound, especially with the brighter strings I put on two weeks ago Shaping the sound wasn’t difficult either with the bass and mid adjustments if I were to need to cut through in a local/small jam with friends. Fourth Test (Pass) Pedals. (Kokko Compressor & Timer, Donner Tuner, Behringer V-Tone BDI 21) I have a certain (same) sound I use for my church gig on the weekends. With the tone knobs on the pre-amp at 12:00, would there be any major differences in the sound, and would the warmth still be there with the pedals in front. It was. Totally. The compressor and V-Tone behaved as I expected based on my experience I get at church. I run straight out of my pedal box into a DI, with an EQ at my music stand - and of course earbuds. I’m satisfied with this purchase, and the space I got back. The other selling point for this was it fits in my pedal case. I don’t use a board - everything I need so far fits inside my case. I’m out of room so this will be the last one I need to buy for a while. In the attached photo, the pre-amp is in the upper left-hand corner of the case.
