Danelectro Honeytone N-10 Guitar Mini Amp, Black with belt clip

Love this little amp and I would buy another one. It's a great mini practice amp, it has a head phone jack and a sturdy belt clip which I find to be handy. Not very heavy yet seems to be sturdy enough. It gets surprisingly loud and sounds better than I expected. Choice of power from DC 9V cable or a 9V battery. The vintage look is a bonus. At the price I found here on Amazon, I couldn't pass it up and I am glad I didn't. I think guitarist of any skill level could enjoy this practical mini amp for a fair price.

I'm starting college this fall and I've decided to bring my electric guitar instead of my acoustic to save space. However, that's all moot if I bring my 50 pound, 100 watt amp. I have a little 40 watt Marshall amp that's only about 1'x1', but the sound is so bad that I'd rather just play unplugged. So I was looking for a quality, ultra-portable amp, and I got exactly that in the Danelectro Honeytone! Most other mini-amps cost $40-$50, and I'm a cheap college student, so I figured that there things always a bit of a gamble and I'd rather only bet $20. I figured worst-case scenario the speakers would suck and I'd use just it with headphones. When I opened the box, I was a little skeptical because while it's very cute, it's mostly plastic. However, once I plugged it in and unwrapped the battery (which was included!), I was immediately impressed. With most smaller and cheaper amps (like my Marshall), you have to choose between muddy distortion or barely being able to hear anything, but this is was not the case. The clean is clear and warm and the drive is still articulate. The sound quality is easily comparable to my Fender, except it's not so crazy loud. But it's actually amazing to hear how much sound can come out of such a little amp! I might even be able to use it for a little street performing. And, It's so small it actually fits in my guitar case. I'm not sure how well it'll hold up overtime, especially since some reviews complained about defective products, but I'll update this review if anything inexplicably breaks or fails. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this little amp!

I would say it could be used just fine for practicing at home or outside, it mostly sounded good and gets louder than expected. I only needed it at about half the volume. I wanted to keep this amp because it looks so cute. But it got static from electronic devices. Even having my phone screen on nearby caused a decent amount of static. Adjusting the tone and gain all the way to lowest was the only way to impact the clarity. I returned it because I'm hoping for a cleaner sound in a portable amp.

The HoneyTone is aptly named. It has a long reputation for having excellent sound for its size. That reputation is earned. It has double the volume of a portable amp I own that's twice its size. The tone range is generous (from mellow to high treble). From what I've seen and heard, the "overdrive" function is fairly useless in an amp this size. It tends to go distortion to the point of garble. My guess is specific guitars may work well with the overdrive, but I have no use for it as I prefer clear tones. It is possible to over-volume the amp (as with any amp) so i don't max it out, but for a portable or practice amp, it works very well. I've bought three of these now and plan to buy more. I don't know as I'd pay $40 to $60 for it, but the Amazon price (currently around $20) makes it a great value. I hope it's around at this price level for a long time as it's great for hobbyist projects or for box guitar amping. NOTE: I do not recommend purchasing used versions of this amp. I bought three... and all three were bad out of the box. With an amp this cheap it's returned for a reason-- and that reason is often because it just doesn't work right. You may luck out, but for the extra buck or two imo it's better just to buy a new one.

I also have a tiny Fender Mini-Deluxe amp that also runs off of a 9v battery. I play electric guitar with a Teenage Engineering Pocket Operator PO-14 as a tiny rythm section so I needed a second tiny battery powered amp. The first Honey Tone they sent was defective. I'd play one note and it would stop working. The second one they sent works fine. Comparing the 2 tiny amps, the Fender and the Honey Tone, I'd say they sound equally well. But the Fender costs $50 on Amazon and the Honey Tone was half that price. Also the Honey Tone has a belt clip that may come in handy. Neither of them compare to even a 15W practice amp as far as sound quality goes, but they work well enough. Both are noisy with my guitar but do not have the same problem with the pocket operator. I'm sure a noise pedal would solve that but that would defeat the purpose of tiny amps. The main reason for the 3 star review and not 4 or 5 is the bad amp they sent and the nuisance of having to go return it. There is a Guitar Center right next to the place I had to return it. I could have just gone there in the first place but instead had to drive several miles for the return, hoping the next one is not junk. I shop on Amazon for conveniance. This was not that. If I were to choose between the Fender and the Honey Tone, I'd go with the Honey Tone for price mainly but the belt clip is nice also. Keep in mind I've only used this amp for perhaps 30 minutes. I've had the Fender for much longer.

First of all- it's a micro-amp in a plastic housing, with plastic knobs and a plastic strap, even though the product description says it's leather. It's around 5 inches tall. On/volume, tone, and overdrive knobs. No reverb circuit. Sounds pretty basic, huh? It is. It's also capable of a LOT of different sounds, and good ones, at that. And it's LOUD. Much louder than expected for an amp with tiny wattage. Instructions are minimal, which is fine, since the controls are self-explanatory. The best part about them is that they show 15 control settings for different tones, from 60s British to fuzz to 70s hard rock. It captures them pretty convincingly, too! At higher volumes, the plastic cabinet starts to sound a little thin and twangy, but it's loud enough that it's not necessary to push it hard enough to enter that territory. I played mine outside, and had a buddy walk down the road. He could hear it a little less than a quarter mile away. Impressive. On mine, the belt clip needed to be removed and squished together to make it able to clip onto thinner materials. Out of the box, it could be clipped onto something 1/2 inch thick. It's sturdy, though. In fact, the whole unit feels pretty sturdy, with the possible exception of the knobs. But they aren't wobbly, and that could just be own reluctance to trust plastic knobs. But then, most amps have plastic knobs. I ordered a 9 volt power supply with mine, and I'm glad that I did. This little monster puts out enough power that I doubt that a battery would last long in it. Given the choice between the sounds of the Marshall, Fender, and this little beast, The Danelectro is the hands-down winner. At less than 20 bucks, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

I was very excited when I purchased this mini guitar amp. All of the Youtube reviews that I've watched was what had convinced me to purchase it since its portable, affordable, and it looks and (supposedly) sounds great. However, when I finally received my package and unboxed the mini amp, I thought that I would be able to turn it on and play it as it is since it comes with a battery. Nope, wasn't working. When I opened the back panel, the connector was not inserted properly? So the battery wasn't giving any power to the amp because the amp connector is inserted at a weird angle. I've tried to fix it by aligning it with a new battery that I've inserted but the connector is still misaligned. It's literally a circuit design flaw. So to try and fix the issue, I have had to use paper and tape to get this thing aligned correctly. The sound quality is affected by this. I'm hearing a "sputter - pop" noise when playing my electric guitar. Really disappointed honestly. I thought that I would have at least purchased a working amp, but nonetheless, the Honeytone did not deliver. 1/5 stars.

I recommend this mini-amp to any bassist or guitarist. It's perfect. Very small and easy to carry around. It's battery powered which helps you play wherever you are. It's louder than most mini-amps. The sound is amazing, no matter what setting of volume, tone, and over drive you use, it gives you a really really good sound. It has a belt clip which allows you to clip on and have it right next to you as you play. Wherever you go, it goes. You can plug in headphones if it's too loud and don't want to bother your neighbors or people living in your house. You can also plug in a wall adapter, which I HIGHLY recommend getting. This mini-amp does allow you to play for many hours just on the battery, but it will die at some point. You'll burn through a lot of batteries if you like playing everyday for a lot of hours.. The wall adapter helps you play for as long as you want. Get the HQRP 9V AC Adapter. It fits and works perfectly. Overall - Amazing mini-amp, I definitely recommend it!

Ein schönes teil und vielseitig einsetztbar ,tragbar am Gürtel , hat ein sehr schönen sound mir gefällts es ,die Lieferung war schnell gut verpackt keine schäden zumelden, 5 x Daumen hoch.

Para su precio que es extremadamente barato se me hace un muy buen sonido. Había leído malas críticas del producto, pero en realidad suena muy bien y demasiado potente para la bocinita que tiene (obviamente ya con un overdrive natural). Con la pila de 9v que viene incluida no suena bien, pero quiero pensar que la pila es mal y probar con otra de mejor calidad.

Sinceramente desconfiaba de este microamplificador pero viendo las buenas reviews en Youtube me decidí por el y vaya sorpresa. PUNTOS POSITIVOS : - Diseño y aspecto : Es precioso, el cuidado que ha puesto el fabricante por conseguir un estilo vintage de los 50 es espectacular. Tiene una entrada de jack 3.5 y de alimentador 9v que no trae, ojo. - Materiales : Sí, es de plástico pero lo disimula muy muy bien y si no estas cerca no lo aprecias. Es un plástico bastante aceptable, no es de gran calidad pero tampoco malo. Lo potenciometros son muy buenos y tienen una resistencia al moverlos comparable a los amplis mas caros. Tambien tiene un asa a modo de decoracion que imita muy buen a la piel. - Sonido : Lo uso para armonica y es tremendo en potencia con un sonido limpio sin apreciarse ruidos indeseables. Con el potenciometro de volumen al minimo y la ganancia a las 3 (como si fuera un reloj) me ha marcado el sonometro de mi movil 81 decibelios. Osea que si la armonica normalmente llega a 70db en acustico, con solo un cuarto de potencia (hablo de gain, el vol. sigue al minimo) este bicho desarrolla unos 10-11db. Es un sonido algo hueco imitando el sonido de los años 50 pero ecualizando puedes conseguir llevar el tono a tu gusto, incluso en el manual hay presets para todos los gustos. Segun dicen con la guitarra electrica tambien da excelentes resultados. - Portabilidad : Posiblemente el mejor aspecto junto al sonido ya que puedes llevarlo a donde quieras, es muy ligero pero tambien tiene un peso que dice que dentro hay material de calidad. PUNTOS NEGATIVOS : No trae el alimentador de 9v, tenlo en cuenta. Tambien me habria gustado algo mas de proteccion, de goma por ejemplo en las esquinas, porque el plastico se ve frágil ante una caída. RESUMEN FINAL : Excelente 10/10, es precioso, puede adornar tu salon cuando no estes tocando. Tiene un sonido muy conseguido y potencia de sobra para practicar en casa.

Che ganzata ragazzi, piccolo ma potente, un stile carino molto affascinante che piace a tutti, comodo da portare con l'aggancio alla cintura, arrivato con i tempi stabiliti e integro. Ottima scelta

So far so good! I was looking for a tiny amp to take along on a bike and to play without having to look too much into settings (my flat really just allows for a small modelling amp, for which finding the right settings is not always easy). A somewhat clean sound, and some distortion is all I needed, and all I got. There's also a tone dial. The speaker is mightily loud for such a tiny thing. Yes, the clean sound is not completely clean but it works well enough for my purpose. The belt clip is perfect as I'm now able to dance around without having to worry about cables. So far none of the problems some people described. I'll update the review should this miniamp develop any problems. Other than that: it's a toy, but for me a useful, and rather cute one. edit: connected a ts9 to it, and the sounds I get out are really odd, but fit perfectly to a song I'm practising. Now on to find a similar sound on my proper amp
