Versatile little headphone amp.
Color: US Classic Reverb Effect
So silly me, I thought that because I was an adult that owned my own home and could play my guitar and bass through my regular amps whenever I wanted. Turns out that when the wife is cranky and I am working on the same riff for an hour straight I am in-fact not allowed to use my big amps. So since I have been really happy with the pedals I have purchased from Sonicake I decided to check out their headphone amp for use when the wife says no to the big amps. I have tested the headphone amp in a Peavey G-90, Predator, Patriot, and Generation EXP as well as a Peavey Fury Bass, and a Cort Curbow Retro 4 (active) Bass. This little amp worked out well in all of them. The reverb is nicely there, It is not overpowering, but not anemic sounding either. The volume gets loud enough through headphones, as well as plugged into a small set of non-powered headphone jack speakers. The gain gives you a little punch but stops short of distortion. The amp arrived with a full charge, and through several hours of testing the battery lights still have not moved from the 4 full bars. There is some slight hum, which I found was almost completely reduced by turning the amp up and then using the volume knob on the guitar instead. The hum was more noticeable with single coil pickups but that is to be expected. The construction is plastic, and the switches and knobs are small, but it's a $30 headphone amp, it's not a half stack. Be nice to your gear and don't come at it like Godzilla and it should be plenty durable. It will have a space in my gear for testing craigslist guitar purchases, for going camping, and for keeping the wife happy when she says I'm being too loud. :( There is only one negative that i found and that was that it would not fit into my wife's 2006 lefty MIM Strat. The angle of the jack plate in that guitar seemed to start putting upward pressure on the amp before it fully seated. There was however no problem using it in my 1994 Peavey Predator which is a strat type guitar. I do not have a another Fender Strat to test so I can not say if it is a Fender issue or if it is an issue only related to her particular guitar. In any case if you have been told to quiet down based on my experience I think this is a good option and I would buy it again. ... show more

Sonicake guitar headphone amp, practice is a lot more fun!
Color: US Classic Reverb Effect
The Soncake headphone amp is a great item to have in your guitar case. So many times at a gig I try to find a quiet corner to practice at, only to find I can't hear myself. Now with The Sonicake headphone amp, I can practice anywhere. The Sonicake has a rechargeable battery that you can recharge with the USB cable provided. When charged it lasts about 5 hours. The volume will get loud and precise. The tone control over halfway up will be a little shrill for most. The gain I would equate to a tube screamer in front of a Fender. The gain works well for blues,jazz and lite rock. Those looking for more saturation will be disappointed. This is not a metal or heavy rock distortion. That being said the Sonicakecake headphone amp does give you a warm and colourful sound. I first used a Strat and found myself in "Stevie Ray Vaughn" land all day. My Les Paul took on an " Allman Bros." Tone. The Sonicake does come with reverb, although it is not adjustable. The reverb reminds of a "Surf Guitar" sound. Like a Fender Twin with the reverb on 10 or 11. The Sonicake says it also has chorus, but I could not detect any. There also is no switch for chorus. The Sonicake comes with a USB cable, an adapter so you can have two headphone outs or two aux in. The aux in works perfectly for playing along or learning new songs. If you take the the time to adjust the volume on The Sonicake and the media your putting in the aux in, it sounds great!! The price for the Sonicake is respectable, compared to other units with less features. ... show more

Good for some straightforward practice.
Color: US Classic Reverb Effect
I've been playing guitar and off for about 10 years and recently went through a very long "off" bout. I'm realizing how much playing guitar kept my mental health stable so I've been trying to get back into it. I live with my aging parents, who are prone to random naps or TV binges. They're pretty tolerant of me firing up one of my loud amps so long as the amps stay in the basement and I don't crank them. During their TV binges, I can fire up one of my practice amps if they're blasting the TV's volume, since my practice amps can't get loud enough for them to hear over the TV. But for nap times.... I have to keep the guitars in their cases. So I decided to get a couple of headphone amps: This Sonicake and another one from Valeton. I have a Valeton TAR 20g guitar amp which is currently my favorite all 'round amp, so I really expected to prefer the Valeton headphone amp over this Sonicake unit. It is with mild surprise that I write that I actually find myself reaching for this Sonicake amp for muted playing sessions! As some readers will likely guess from reading thus far, I have G.A.S. , or Gear Acquisition Syndrome. I have many guitars, many amps and have owned many more in the past. What's my point here, you might ask? My point is that I've found that I play best- and most, with simple gear. The amp with one channel and a few knobs. The guitar that I haven't modded with pickup-altering configurations. When I play my modded guitars, my feature laden amps, and/or hook up some effects pedals, I spend a lot of time toying with my gear, and I never further my guitar skills. This nuance is one of two reasons why I favor this Sonicake amp. It's very straightforward to use, and while it's very lacking in features compared to the Valeton, that means I spend more time playing my guitars! Yes, this amp does have a couple of effects, but they can only be switched on or off; there are no controls to adjust them in any way. Plus, this amp costs a fair amount less than the Valeton as well. The second reason I favor this amp is simple yet complex: Tone. While I have and enjoy a few very nice tube amplifiers, I'm not a tube snob (The Valeton TAR 20g is solid state, case in point) but I expect good tone from my gear. I don't think I set the bar high here; I've got a 10 watt Donner guitar amp that I think sounds fine and am just as willing to play that little amp as I am hooking up my mighty Hughes and Kettner 36 watt Tubemeister and feeling like I might level the house with it's volume. Unlike many guitarists, I am a stickler for clean tone. It is my belief and experience thus far that it's far easier to overdrive/distort amps than it is to clean them up, so I strongly prefer amps that perform well with clean tones. And this Sonicake does just that. No, it's definitely not Fender clean, but given it's size, and compared to the sorry excuse the Valeton headphone amp has as a clean channel, I find the clean tones this amp puts out agreeable. And true to my statement, rolling up the gain knob easily pulls you into overdrive tone territory. The amp does start to "fart" when you max the gain, but for one, that's just my ears hearing that, and two, this amp is meant for clean and slightly overdriven tone, so maxing out the gain is using it out of intended context. In closing, I will cover two gripes I have about this amp: 1. It uses a USB Micro jack. WHY? Sorry to sound snobby, but I find USB type C plugs and jacks to be so much more reliable. Please update your headphone amps to use USB type C jacks, SONICAKE!! 2. The "thumbwheel" controls on this amp are quite irritating to use when this amp is plugged in to any of my guitars. At first, I reasoned that the thumbwheel controls were to prevent the controls from getting moved should the amp get bumped, but the Valeton headphone amp has actual raised knobs, and they've never been moved by my accidentally bumping the amp while plugged in. All in all I'm very satisfied with this amp, and unlike many of my gear purchases, it is conducive to my playing my guitar instead of just fiddling with gear. ... show more

Awesome Beginner Product
Color: US Classic Reverb Effect
Very fun product, it definitely works, very good for practice on the Electric Guitar. Connection is very crisp, the effects are not too much. Kinda wish there was a knob to adjust it as well. The features are very simple.

Solid build and impressive amp emulation
Color: US Classic Reverb Effect
Build quality of this Sonicake headphone amp is solid. It’s molded plastic, but sturdy and slightly textured, not slippery. All the controls and jacks are solid, too. Feels like it can last a long time. I’m impressed by the overall sound of the US Classic, which is rich with great amp crunch. It’s responsive to the guitar’s volume control and can clean up nicely, when desired. I tested this with 2 very different headphone sets and plugged straight into the power amp/return jack on a 65w combo amp and plugged into a cd input on a practice amp. It’s a bit on the hissy side in headphones, but not unlike a real amp, really. It’s most quiet with the guitar turned up high and the amp volume turned lower. Hiss becomes a non-issue once you start playing, but it might be a bit too much for recording. There’s plenty of gain and saturation from the gain control and a fairly wide range of tone from the one tone control. Beside the basic control set, the pocket headphone amp is equipped with an auxiliary input for piping in sound to play along with and an intense spring/hall reverb, controlled by a single on/off switch. The reverb sound is quite realistic, if not a bit overboard. It would be nice to have a 3-way switch to include a high and low intensity setting adjustment (not meaning louder and softer, but more and less). The headphone amp comes packaged with a stereo 1/8” male to male cable, a molded stereo 1/8” y-adapter and a micro USB cable for charging. Very well thought out product packaging, I think. Rates 5 stars, especially for the price. Pros: Solid feel and build Good sound emulation Good choice of controls Added reverb effect Cons: Reverb could be less intense, or 2 modes offered The 4 bright blue leds is a bit much. They could be dimmed down. ... show more

Playing with my guitar wirelessly.
Color: US Classic Reverb Effect
It's easy to use. Functionality: It connects to my Bluetooth speaker with the headphone jack built in, using the audio cable. The sound looks good. Features: it has the volume, gain, and tone controls. Portability: important. Input options: plug in to my Epiphone SG Guitar to the audio cable to my Bluetooth speaker (with the headphone jack built in). If you want to play with it wirelessly without your power outage or falling/tripping on the cord and getting hurt yourself, I'd recommend this one. I love it.
