VOX AP2BS amPlug 2 Guitar/Bass Headphone Amplifier Black

Absolutely great

Es bastante bueno, viene con sus baterías y tiene una secuencia de batería bastante buena para practicar

Decent product. Good for practice.

Works great!

I had one of these a while ago, it came with a bass i bought used. I sold it but definitely regret that decision, here we are several months later and I purchased this from Amazon.First thing, it’s very small and lightweight. I for sure wasn’t expecting much but once I plugged in headphones and turned it on, mind blown! This inexpensive, small and lightweight piece of gear sounds amazing! Also nice is you can really hear the difference between different basses, pickups, settings, etc…Volume is definitely not an issue, it is loud! My only wish is for this to include Bluetooth. It has an aux input, so it works great to plug in another headphone amp if you’re jamming with a friend, or to play along to music from your phone, mp3 player, etc., but Bluetooth would make it easier and make this next level.So if you’re needing a great way to practice without disturbing others or just want to keep it private, this is a great addition to your gear. You definitely won’t regret it!

Really brings out the lows in my head phones while practicing bass with it. Very good quality highly recommend this if you’re a bass player learning new songs.

Because I practiced unplugged for a long time, I developed the habit of plucking really hard (so I could hear the notes without amplification). I wanted to develop more "touch" and economy of motion, so I started practicing with my amp... which makes noise (not always ideal). My amp has a headphone jack, but it's not portable at all, which also limited practice options.Now, with the Vox, I can hear all the notes clearly without making a racket and practice anywhere I want. I really like the "aux in" feature - I can play tracks from my phone and hear both the bass and the track in my earphones. It also works with my metronome, which has a headphone jack.The unit is easy to use. All the controls are fairly intuitive. Excellent sound quality, in my opinion, with several options for tone.My only concern is that the plastic housing, jacks, and dials feel kind of cheap - it almost felt like I was going to break something the first few times I used it. This Vox unit is listed at around $50. Not equivilant by any means, but for $60 - 65, I can get a bullet-proof Boss pedal (DS-1 for example) with a metal housing. I feel like Vox could have made it a little sturdier without breaking the bank.UPDATE (11/21/2024): I used the hell out of this thing for the last four months. One thing I noticed was that the batteries that came with the unit didn't last long, but I put new ones in and got a solid 20-30 hours of playing time (but should point out that I never used the built-in drum machine feature).Recently I was practicing and accidentally stepped on the "aux in" cord, causing it to lightly tug on the Vox unit, which immediately caused the housing to separate and cracked the "aux in" jack socket. Snapping the housing together was easy, but my favorite feature, the "aux in" jack, was no longer useable.This validated my concern about the cheap housing and components. Unfortunately, most of the pocket amp designs I've seen look like they share the same basic design (and are probably made in the same factory, just with different chips and branding).I ended up replacing it with a "Valeton Rushead Max", which has similar features, but a different design. The Valeton is also rechargeable (USB-C). So far the Valeton seems more robust.UPDATE (2/19/2025): I used the Valeton product for about 3 months, then it died (wiring issue, wouldn't work without jiggling). So, NOT more robust. I'll probably buy another Vox and be extra, super careful with it.So, full circle: If you're trying to decide between the Valeton and Vox, I'd go with the Vox. If you get the Vox, be very gentle with it.

This this is a beast! its great for if there's people around, or you live in an apartment or if you still live with your parents, just plug it into the bass and get some fairly good headphones and practice away! great for on the go/travel too!
