The Danelectro Honeytone Mini Amp – Beatnik Burgundy is an easy way to get great sound from your electric guitar. The color of this unit is a soft burgundy (almost brick red in color). Paired with the Zero Hum AC Adaptor, it’s a highly portable amp setup. “Ultra-portable” by using a 9V battery instead of the AC adaptor. I do think they are best purchased together to enjoy all the benefits of this rig though.

A headphone jack on the amp means you can enjoy the amp’s impressive sound quality without bothering the neighbors or waking your spouse.

Included with the amp is an Owner’s Manual with simple start-up instructions. You’ll need to have your own cord (the one that goes from the guitar to the amp isn’t provided as part of the amp package…). The manual has several control settings for the following sound tweaks:

-Clean & Spanky
-Warm Jazz
-Big Amp Overdrive
-Killer Blues
-Distorted Rhythm
-Thick Solo
-Woodstock Fuzz
-Send the Cats Under the Bed
-Twang
-Mondo Sustain
-Brit Solo Tune
-Sparkle Clean
-Early 80’s Clean Solo
-Late 60’s Neck Solo
-70’s Brit
-70’s Solo

I paid under for this amp and couldn’t be happier with the product. Don’t hesitate to pick one up for yourself.

There is a space in the back of the unit for 1 9-volt battery Duracell 9-V Alkaline Batteries, 4-Count or you can use the included AC adapter to power the amp.

UPDATE: 9/19/12 Per reviewer Paul Stewart: “As a point of clarity – the current version of this item does NOT ship with an adapter nor cable. Be prepared to purchase these in tandem.” FYI…

Almost 4 years ago I bought this item, and it’s still going strong! Great deal.

YUP! It’s still kickin’ along. Super buy on this mini-amp.

i picked one of these amps up and it is awesome. definitely didnt expect it to be as loud as it was. the price is incredible for this little beast lol. the only reason i gave it four stars outta five is because it kinda eats batteries. but i got a ton of batteries so i like this amp. make sure you get some good batteries and youll will be satisfied with this product for sure!

I wish I would have had this 10 years ago. Small and cheap enough to have more than one (keep one at work, in the car, etc), but really big, quality sound. You do go through some 9v batteries, but you can also plug it in/use rechargeables.
