Impressive!
My God, so impressed with this little amplifier. Great tube tone., from this hybrid unit. Iโve coupled this to an 8โ Vox 20w cab. This is very versatile. I would recommend this amp for any beginner and intermediate, even any pro guitar play as a great practice amp alternative. I have a Marshall Plexi and this sounds almost as nice over driven. So impressed.

Fantastic amp
This little amp is absolutely fantastic and sounded great. Itโs crazy loud. Unfortunately I had to return it due to a faulty valve (tube). The quality of modern valves is patchy at best so I do not hold that against the amp or brand. In hindsight I should have just replaced it myself and kept the amp as it was really great. Itโs fantastic value, looks great and the Bluetooth is so helpful. I am strongly considering buying another one.

Good clean sounding amp.
This is a very good sounding amp and well made. nice and clean sound for jazz and blues,it also takes pedals very well and added bonus having an effects loop. Very loud if you wish and would probably be loud enough to do a small size venue,the bigger the speaker you use the more volume you will get. A very good amp for price. Dont forget you need a speaker to plug into. Great sellar and fast delivery.

JOYO BanTamp compact + great sound
Bought this mini amp-head for its size, which is very practical and convenient to cart about, to say the least. With a pedal using FX loop, the sound is as good as any Iโve come across. Iโm sure the bluetooth will benefit some, but as Iโm recording straight to a DAW, Iโve no need to use it as yet. A little gem; I may get another.

Not for me
It worked OK. I just found the sound not to my taste.

Great piece of kit
Bought as a gift for my husband who is learning and he really likes it! It's high quality and for the price point, it's a brilliant piece of kit. Would absolutely recommend for a beginner to intermediate player.

Brilliant, fantastic, amazing etc
This little amp sounds utterly amazing, it is the sound i have been after for decades. I ran it into two 16ohm 1 x 12" , 100w cabinets and the sound was immense and impressively loud for its diminutive size. Highly recommended and could be mic'd up through the PA far larger rooms

I Tweedy how about you?
No more heavy expensive gear needed. This is and outstanding mini tube amp. I now run dual cabinets or a single Fender deluxe. It has plenty of voices and tone. Clean that you can also drive hard without getting all muddy. Best of all no apps that go out of date.

Joyo jackman xl amp is greatโฆ box, not so much!
I bought this amp 3 years ago, used it for awhile, then put it away. Why , I donโt remember. Today I took it out of storage to see if I still liked it. Well I have to say I love it! Sounds great! Only problem was when I went to take it out of its box, the box fell apart and the amp hit the floor with a hard thud. I thought if the tube didnโt break or there isnโt any other damage Iโll be lucky. Iโm happy to report that the amp is undamaged and works perfectly. Clean channel sounds very nice and clear sounding. The distortion channel with the gain set around 9:30 is crunchy yet still dynamic. I couldnโt really turn the volume past 8-9 o'clock in the house without being excessively loud through a 1x12 with a speaker rated at 80watts. Very Marshally sound. Is it exactly the same sound as a jcm 800? Probably not. Is it good enough for the price theyโre asking? Heck yeah! Just donโt store it in the box it came in .Find something better! Thanks for reading and thanks to Joyo for making these amps. Just design a better box! lol

The best amp I own.
Not just 'good for the price' The BEST amp I own. If you have a decent pile of cabs....you'll understand Not just value for money, I'd buy this for double what I paid if I knew how good it was owning it. This and the zombie 2 are the best 2. Marshall is a close third for me personally I love fender amps and this gets super close. Great sound quality, obviously good size Easy to use IF you put a Eq pedal in the loop. That's all this amp needs. A reverb in the chain and a Eq in the loop. Between that and the VOICE and TONE combos with gain and vol.....you can do a WIDE RANGE of fender black amp to fender tweed.... Build quality seems good on the unit. The PSU it comes with is....different. I get why it's like that but on the road I'll admit right now...that's a possible failure point Normal 3prong power cables are hard to damage. Little black box converters TO 3prong....twice as sketchy. Still durable but twice as sketchy as the tonka tough alternative (on the road gigging with beer spills and coffee stains happening all the time...could be an issue for some)

Chugs Like a Dual Rec
Pretty impressive little amp. I got tired of using my mesa boogie dual rectifier to practice at low volumes so I bought this. It is very similar to the real thing only not as loud. Still quite loud, but im not sure if its loud enough for a full metal band live. Much like the real thing, it responds best when you put a od pedal in front of it to tighten the low end and make it chug harder. The effects loop is a nice feature and it works great. The Bluetooth option is great for learning a song or playing along with one. Technology has come a long way since the 90s and this is a good example of that. Back in the day you'd have to buy a full-sized marshall valvestate to get a hybrid amp, but now all that and more is condensed into a light weight lunchbox sized head. Headphones work well with the cab Sim built in too. Mesa sells a lunch box dual rectifier but with this I dont know why you would spend 10 times the amount you pay for this. Just a killer amp!
