@@TylerJohnstonGuitar Or, you know, just try hooking it up to a much larger speaker. That transformed my 15 W solitstate practice amp into something stage-ready
I had to pause this video so that I could go listen to Fuego. I've been on a Flamenco/Latin kick for the last year, and this one is definitely up my alley. Very awesome - keep 'em coming.
at first i want orange mini, but the local guitar store recomended that joyo amp (ma-10e) after try it i very impressed for a cheap amp (around 50$) in my country (indonesia) meanwhile the orange mini cost around $80, joyo is so underated brand, their pedal perfomance also kicking above their price,you should also try their pedals more over the vintage series.
Definitely the Joyo, with a strong second to the Blackstar. I tried out all the Fender battery-powered amps, and almost all of them sucked. The best one is actually the little Deluxe. I learned a couple of tricks to get it sounding relatively good. For distortion, turn the tone control completely to the right, it reduces the fartiness. Second, place the amp on its face on the floor or on the bed, sounds much better. For me the best practise amp hands down is the BOSS Katana Mini. Good clean, and the Brown setting can be dialed in to a great metal crunch sound.
Haha! When I read that review someone posted about their amp catching fire, I kept holding my breath each time a new amp was tried, scared that one of them was going to burst into flames! Haha! Glad to see that didn't happen! 💖
@@Peyote1312 No. All I'm saying is just simply that one of the speakers thankfully didn't catch on fire when he was filming. He posted that review to show what's happened to other people, and how bad the speakers can be. Nowhere, anywhere, did he say that's what happened to him. He puts out awesome music, and works his ass off to deliver amazing content! Don't be so negative towards him! He's a great guy, and deserves so much better than that!
Dunno what could possibly catch on fire these days. Back in the real early days when Dick Dale was pushing his amps hard, sure, it happened. But Fender gave him redesigned amps pretty shortly after that, so unless you have footage from his first few concerts at some time in the late 1950s or something like that, you're probably not going to see it.
Cool, now there just needs to be a website linking to YT vids and interrupting ads with other ads = true adception. I'm astounded that advertisers seem to think, that that is a good idea.
I used to have an Orange Mini amp and yeah, I wasn't that impressed, either. After seeing Jules Conroy and Tyler Larson both being sponsored by Positive Grid, I gave the Spark Mini a shot and it's been my go to ever since, especially since my Fender halfstack is starting to show its age. I will say, I was impressed by that Joyo. Wasn't expecting it to sound as big as it did.
the Chinese have really stepped up their quality game. It used to be you couldn't get any decent music gear from there. Now they are making decent guitars and electronics. You just gotta look around a little and see what other people have experienced before you buy.
For a while I was ampless so I used a multi fx box with a wire running through from it's headphones jack into a bluetooth speakers line in and it was a better option than lot of these.
I actually use the crush mini quite often. The biggest strength it has is the 8 ohm output jack. That’s where the REAL magic is as plugging into an external speaker cabinet makes it sound amazing. My main setup is the amp connected to a karaoke speaker right now lol
Best use for a tiny amp like this I ever heard was splitting your signal chain to go into your regular amp and one of these then using the tiny amp for more easily controlled feedback.
I have the Orange . It's a handy practice tool , it's main benefit is that you can hook it up to a bigger cab , where it sounds pretty good . I used to own the Marshall with the double cab so like a mini full stack and it sounds much better than the half stack . My daughter has the red Marshall half stack . Ok none of them are great , but they are useful in their own right , for travel or just practice on the fly or in a limited space .
I own a blackstar debut 15, yeah distorted tone isnt great, no small amp has been great on that for me, but I use it as a pedal platform and for me is super good, I really enjoy the clean tones and the more simple "Isf" kinda tone knob. Love the video!
I used to practice outside with my Honeytone amp, the same one you reviewed. I swear it was louder than my much bigger Vox Rhythm 5. Was on a farm, so it didn't annoy anyone. Got some positive responses from people driving by in their cars though. Thing was loud. That Joyo amp sounded really cool, I've enjoyed their other products, cheap but surprisingly good.
I'm not sure if you've checked out the little tiny, spark go amp? It's smaller than my hand lol. But for what it is, wow!! It's loud, It's clear, it can be set up in absolutely amazing ways! It's an amp, a pedal, blue tooth speaker, I'm still discovering. And I'm not very tech savvy. If I can do it, anyone can! Lol. Thanks for your videos. Entertaining, educational, and you're a great guitarist!!
I have a Spark Go as well and the app/interface to create your tones is awesome! I'm a pretty big tone snob and i'm dialing some tight balanced distortion with ease.
yup they are the best mini amps! I have the Spark (Go) and the tones are endless with the app/interface and I am an absolute tone snob when it comes to distortion.
The mini Marshall & Fender, and even the Orange, are really more novelty items. When I first saw them they were more reasonably priced, but then they shot up in price where the novelty is not worth it to me, but I know some who are good with them for the novelty
Got here after hearing it on spotify My first reaction was like what did he experiment with this time Just had to check it out immediately And once again we have another amazing single by bernth🔥🔥
Loved it! For cheap practice distortion, there's also the so called Amplugs that are basically amps without a speaker, that output to headphones... You should also give some of those a try... They're usually under 50$ I believe and that would make a nice video too!
That HB would be a great workbench amp! For the size and the prize it’s perfect for if you’re rewiring pickups or building a pedal board and you need to check that things work. Heck with the size, you could even bring it to gigs just to use for troubleshooting.
I never get all the negative reviews for these kind of cheap amps unless they're completely useless, and they clearly are not. They're not meant to be used to make professional recordings or play for a crowd, they're meant for practicing or just noodling around at home without pissing off the neighbors. And for that, any amp that you just showed off has a good enough tone. The one with the suction cup is awesome for taking a cheap guitar camping too. And I love it when they come with effects, so you don't have to mess around with pedals. Nowadays, if you don't have the funds for a high quality rig, it's awesome to see you can still get something decent for cheap. Because it's worse if you can't afford to get any rig at all.
The Blackstar looks and sounds great. The Flamma is very impressive. I used to have one of those Orange amps. It was the earlier version, and I don't know if they've changed it, but the headphone output was way too loud. I also used to have one of the Marshalls. I thought it was pretty good for what it is. I'm very surprised by the last one.
I STILL SHRED! That said, my Harly Benton 10W open back practice amp sounds pretty good... probably because I don't use the built-in effects (didn't even try them) but run them through a Boss multi effect pedal.
the Joyo surprised me the most, I think I might actually buy one. Ive heard a lot of those in person before and was expecting as much here. I will say for the Orange, I heard one of those being demoed (I worked at Guitar Center) and for what it is, it sounded killer across the store. I love Orange stuff.
I like the Fender. I have one (for about ten years now) and I would use it to teach with in my guitar class. It is a very simple amp circuit and the tone can be shaped very easily with the amp and guitar controls. Great review by the way. The Blackstar at the beginning and Joyo I think would be the best for a practice amp for someone starting out. They sound great.
Hi Bernth, Cool video, great side by side comparisons... I am interested in your thought on the Positive Grid Spark and the Spark mini amps. You should do a review on those if you get the opportunity. Thx, Genesis
I am sorry for all these producers but as the Spark GO is available and is palm-sized, while producing a HUUUGE sound of any kind, there is just no excuses for those crap noises. Yes, Spark is much more advanced, but I am talking here only about the speaker part. Sorry, but at its volume, Spark GO is faultless in any genre or distortion level.... NO MORE SIZE-RELATED EXCUSES!!!
Thanks for the video! I remember when the blackstar fly first came out (the first good nano combo amp, though I didn't know it at the time). The other guitarist in the band I was in tried it as a joke...we both had wtf, this sounds pretty good faces on...I grabbed a mini crush and we A/B'd it in guitar center....we both walked out with a Fly.
Some of these really tiny amps are actually quite popular with guitar techs because you can mount them to a work box and use to check that everything on a guitar works correctly, often on batteries. I see the Marshall one most of the time, but never used for overdrive. Any tiny battery-powered amp with a high-impedance input would work, it doesn't have to sound good. Certainly wish there was a low-pass filter on a couple of those amps though.
I used the Honeytone one for quite a while for on the go! It's a lot louder than what youd expected! I also used to have a Zoom 505II pedal that i ran with it. I 100% recommended it!
The smaller the speaker the worse they are in my opinion. Especially as the volume is raised and gain is raised. They are practice amps so youll only get so much goodness out of them. But someone like yourself can make them all sound great!
The orange crush mini sounds like a proper amp if you use the speaker out and connect it to good quality cab. I put mine through a 12" speaker and it sounds great.
I happen to be very very happy with my HB Pro Series guitar. Granted, I had a friend who's the son af a luthier go over it setup-wise, but he was amazed at how little he had to do. HB was the only one willing to sell me a 24 fret HSH guitar within my budget, and having tried a lot of the entry level "proper name brand" guitars I think people who buy those are getting ripped off on the "brand tax". So compared to that kind of competition I would say "Haley Benton - You get 50% more than you pay for" :P
Indeed! I just got a HB pedalboard with a built-in power supply and the quality is spot on. It handles my germanium transistor pedal like a boss =very good isolation.@@andersjjensen
i ordered an electric guitar and as a begginer i bought with it the harley benton MA-5 miniamp bc my budget is low. thanks for the review i needed to see that
Orange Crush Mini can be run at 12V, in this case the clean tone is less hot. Also it has AUX line input. The guitar can be plugged there through a buffer or active bypass pedal to get the cleanest tone.
You should try the boss katana mini it's not the loudest amp but great sounding for both clean to metal and decent delay though I wish they had more delay in the mix
Should be possible nowadays to have a small board with an amp sim and a small solid state amp to produce acceptable distortion sounds. Quite disappointing to see these amps having the same "quality" like 10 years ago.
I would love to see Bernth do some type of a collaboration with Max Ostro. That would be one amazing song, if not a song a jam would be amazing as well.
I have a Yamaha THR-10. I can get some pretty good sounds out of that thing. I have it set up next to my bed, so it's handy when you get any ideas. I also have the Danelectro Honey and the Orange Crush. Neither row my boat, but as a few have said, the Orange sounds okay through a cab. Must give it a try.
I swear by the Spark Go with headphones or out to another amps return, as the 2 inch speaker can't cut it. Better tones than anything else in that price range, smaller, and 8 hour rechargeable battery. Need to try feeding it to my Homeytone now...
To be honest, none of them sound bad for practicing, except Fender. The oddest and far best practice Amp is the Lekato Guitar Plug Amp Pa-1: Just a Plugin direct into the guitar with a headphone out, convolution(!) model amps (and YES you can upload your own models), USB and bluetooth connection (so you can play to your tracks on your smartphone).
You should do a most expensive practice amp version of this vid! Try the Jamstack 2 if you want the best sounding small practice amp - just started selling in December. It’s more money than the amps you showed, but it’s really worth it. I play guitar, but it can even handle a bass without breaking a sweat and works with all types of instruments very well. It’s very loud too. You can use their own app to make/share tones or works with any app of your choosing. You can also record videos with your guitar from your mobile phone. You can pair one or more for stereo and it uses new on board wireless tech for zero latency. Amazing option!
As long as the thing is reliable and has low noise, everything else is about artistic preference. Even a tone you consider unpleasant might be useful in a song which requires that the guitar sound cut through the mix. Or it just fits what you're trying to do for some unexplainable reason. But if it's noisy and prone to crapping out on you then it's a big fat no lol.
This was such a fun video, thanks Bernth! ^^ Here are some challenges that I generated throughout the video, I hope these inspire you! + Make A Black Metal song with Orange/ Marshall/ Harley Benton Amp + Make a Song that sounds like every beginner guitarist's first original song with the most "cheap-sounding" guitar amps from this video, with very simple and even sloppy playing and obviously you need to include the drums from the Flamma Drum Machine! :D Maybe you can have a contrast section where everything is extremely well played/ well written/ flashy shredding/ great produced, etc. + The Flamma with it's variety of effects (plus the drum machine) could make a full song of it's own?
Nice playing. When $100 amp does one good enough tone it could be just what you need, in particular with a headphone socket 😃 Got a badly reviewed Origin 5c that I find sounds a lot better than the higher regarded DSL-1 (same speaker 😅).
Check out my new song 'Fuego' here: bit.ly/3ujOl7g
Added you to my Spotify list, really liked the top two songs! Lovely arrangements and dream-like tones.
aight bet
The material of the old amp you said was plastic is probably Bakelite … which is very 30s-50s
this mini amps its compatible with bass guitar or not?
i wish you tried the katana air , great amp i think
Just shows a great player can make anything sound good for the most part. For clean tones anyway cheap distortion appears to be a lost cause.
Clean channel + cheap pedals is the way to go. Much better than the amp distortion.
@@TylerJohnstonGuitar Or, you know, just try hooking it up to a much larger speaker.
That transformed my 15 W solitstate practice amp into something stage-ready
@@ichbrauchmehrkaffee5785you just gotta make sure the ohms of the speaker match the output of the amp. But really what's the point?
Small amps don't do any good justice for guitar effect pedals.
Black metal: *am I a joke to you*
I had to pause this video so that I could go listen to Fuego. I've been on a Flamenco/Latin kick for the last year, and this one is definitely up my alley. Very awesome - keep 'em coming.
Thanks for listening 🤘
My nephew is moving on Wednesday from Chicago to Berlin. Please keep us posted on new tour dates.
I actually liked the blackstar one. Loved the new hairstyle too.
when I first saw the blackstar I almost cried because it's the same one I have, but I'm glad you liked it because it's pretty good imo!!
at first i want orange mini, but the local guitar store recomended that joyo amp (ma-10e) after try it i very impressed for a cheap amp (around 50$) in my country (indonesia) meanwhile the orange mini cost around $80, joyo is so underated brand, their pedal perfomance also kicking above their price,you should also try their pedals more over the vintage series.

I got a Blackstar like that in your testing, and I really love it. I'm not a pro and I can't stand loud volumes so it's really great for me.
Every one of these are PERFECT for a black metal album.

It has for a small Amp this size a beautiful overdriven sound,something like my own Joyo Jackman.

Hi have the Blackstar Fly 3. Not the best sounding ever, but super useful and very fun to play (and it doesn't catch on fire!)
Perfect thanks. I lost it at 5:20 ("if you have an underground black metal band")😄

Clean tone did at least

Connect that Orange mini to a 1x12 or 2x12 and watch it really come alive, especially if you boost it with a Boss SD1.
I suspect most of them will sound infinitely better with a proper cab - it's almost always the tiny speakers that are holding these amps back.

11:08 My DreamTheater sence emerged instantly
I STILL SHRED!
That said, my Harly Benton 10W open back practice amp sounds pretty good... probably because I don't use the built-in effects (didn't even try them) but run them through a Boss multi effect pedal.
The harley benton amp at the end sounds way better than the marshall one in my opinion
It's a bit fizzy, but way more present. Definitely sounds better.
the Joyo surprised me the most, I think I might actually buy one. Ive heard a lot of those in person before and was expecting as much here. I will say for the Orange, I heard one of those being demoed (I worked at Guitar Center) and for what it is, it sounded killer across the store. I love Orange stuff.
As an AliExpress afficionado yes, I've often heard about Flamma before. They make cool pedals.
Completly off topic but I really like your new hair ❤

I bought the Boss Katana mini and i am so happy with it. With all the functions it has and being small. It sounds amazing for its price and size.
5:14 This sounds EXACTLY like the Pagan Altar - Judgment of the Dead tone.
8:35 " I hope there is something inside " just killed me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

AMPLIFIED!!!
Joyo stuff is actually really nice for what you pay. Their mini heads are great cheap clones of other amps with surprising features
I love this, and I love your hair man!!!!
I got the fender one a long time ago. Disaster. Got a Spark GO a couple months later. Best thing ever.

That’s 16 year old me thinking I just created the most badass tone ever

I 100% recommended it!

You just dropped the perfect slogan for HB.
“Harley Benton - not that bad”
I happen to be very very happy with my HB Pro Series guitar. Granted, I had a friend who's the son af a luthier go over it setup-wise, but he was amazed at how little he had to do.

I use a Danelectro Honeytone as a amp for playing blues harmonica. It's very good amp, small and have warm, vintage tone.
digging the 480p oldschool youtube vibe (unironically lol)
That clean tone has very major diablo vibes
I thought you were getting ready to go onto "On the Backs of Angels" at the end for a second 😂
I love Joyo! 😊 Well, I love their line of pedal clones such as the Extreme Metal/Muff 👍🏻
Very cool comparisons! However, "Fuego" probably would set these all on fuego...

That's all well and good, but can we all just appreciate how nice your jumper is?

Hey man, look at me rocking now, I'm on a VIDEOOOOO
The Marshall reminds me of the video with Dime, running around shredding with it clipped to his waist lol!
You should try the boss katana mini it's not the loudest amp but great sounding for both clean to metal and decent delay though I wish they had more delay in the mix

You made it no sponsor man, everytime you come in an ad I hear through the full ad. Congrats man!
Wow! you got really good at guitar really fast! I hope you still play your harp in future videos though ❤
I would love to see Bernth do some type of a collaboration with Max Ostro. That would be one amazing song, if not a song a jam would be amazing as well.
I have a Blackstar Fly 3 mini ampp. For this size of 3 watt and price i can honestly recommend it, especially for travel. Nice delay also and EQ
I really like the blackstar one.....
Omg! You need to try the pignose. The king of mini amps
I have a Yamaha THR-10. I can get some pretty good sounds out of that thing. I have it set up next to my bed, so it's handy when you get any ideas. I also have the Danelectro Honey and the Orange Crush. Neither row my boat, but as a few have said, the Orange sounds okay through a cab. Must give it a try.
The first one is literally my exact same a,p and the whole band loves it
I was disappointed that none of them burst into flames. Love the smell of fiery molten plastic with my practice riffs.
You should make a video on the Blackstar all by itself. You can get some insane clean tones as you mentioned.
I swear by the Spark Go with headphones or out to another amps return, as the 2 inch speaker can't cut it. Better tones than anything else in that price range, smaller, and 8 hour rechargeable battery. Need to try feeding it to my Homeytone now...
the orange crush mini has a surprising sound when plugged on a bigger speaker
To be honest, none of them sound bad for practicing, except Fender.
The oddest and far best practice Amp is the Lekato Guitar Plug Amp Pa-1: Just a Plugin direct into the guitar with a headphone out, convolution(!) model amps (and YES you can upload your own models), USB and bluetooth connection (so you can play to your tracks on your smartphone).
Liked, subscribed, and rang the bell because I like the sponsor.
haha der kloane marshall hod mi irgendwie an burzum erinnert lol. Oba echt geil wie du de videos mochst..respekt. greets vo nähe Sbg
Need that Fuego song on Apple Music !💔🔥
Really like the editing/ comment notes
I feel like if you did a everlong cover it would Sound awesome
If i remember right, Varg Vikernes used that mini Marshall MS2 for Burzum Filosofem with headphones as a mic xD
You should do a most expensive practice amp version of this vid! Try the Jamstack 2 if you want the best sounding small practice amp - just started selling in December. It’s more money than the amps you showed, but it’s really worth it. I play guitar, but it can even handle a bass without breaking a sweat and works with all types of instruments very well. It’s very loud too. You can use their own app to make/share tones or works with any app of your choosing. You can also record videos with your guitar from your mobile phone. You can pair one or more for stereo and it uses new on board wireless tech for zero latency. Amazing option!
even my $3 Bluetooth speaker I got at a garage sale sounds better than the Harley Benton (when I covert the AUX imput to a quarter inch lmao)
As long as the thing is reliable and has low noise, everything else is about artistic preference. Even a tone you consider unpleasant might be useful in a song which requires that the guitar sound cut through the mix. Or it just fits what you're trying to do for some unexplainable reason. But if it's noisy and prone to crapping out on you then it's a big fat no lol.
i learned to play on an rg120 like that guitar. black body/maple fretboard. kinda like the old jeff loomis schecter sigs too. cool guitars
I have that exact orange amp. I dont use it, but i have it
This was such a fun video, thanks Bernth! ^^
Here are some challenges that I generated throughout the video, I hope these inspire you!
+ Make A Black Metal song with Orange/ Marshall/ Harley Benton Amp
+ Make a Song that sounds like every beginner guitarist's first original song with the most "cheap-sounding" guitar amps from this video, with very simple and even sloppy playing and obviously you need to include the drums from the Flamma Drum Machine! :D Maybe you can have a contrast section where everything is extremely well played/ well written/ flashy shredding/ great produced, etc.
+ The Flamma with it's variety of effects (plus the drum machine) could make a full song of it's own?
Nice playing.
When $100 amp does one good enough tone it could be just what you need, in particular with a headphone socket 😃
Got a badly reviewed Origin 5c that I find sounds a lot better than the higher regarded DSL-1 (same speaker 😅).
Nice Giger S dude, sweet guitar (i love ibanez S)
