Harley Benton HB-15GXD JamBox

I bought this as a practice amp for my daughter. I am super satisfied. It has some great practice features (sounds good at low volume, has a built in drum machine), Side by side with a more expensive and larger amp it wouldn't sound as good but there are no compromises in this one that would hurt her practice.

If you want an small amp for home practice, you can't go past this.

Here's some things it doesn't have that may be deal breakers for you
1) No Line out or usb interface (it does have a headphone out)
2) No effect loop
3) Will not be loud enough for band use

Otherwise it sounds great to my old ears, and this is the important bit, at LOW VOLUME. Yes my tube head sitting on a 2x12 cab sounds better, but only for 5 minutes until my neighbours call the police.

There are 8 amp models(JC Clean, Clean , Tube Screamer, Blues, Crunch, Lead, Rythm, and Metal ) and they all sound satisfying. there are 6 effects on two knobs - Delay/Reverb, and Chorus/Flanger/Phaser/Tremolo - with a bit or trial and error there are few tones you won't be able to simulate.

Best of all (it was actually the feature that made me get it) for practice it has a drum machine with 36 patterns in it. So you can jam to a drummer which in my mind is a great practice tool.
And as an added bonus it is tiny and light. You could bring it with in a backpack without any trouble.

Small cheap bedroom practice amp? Get this one.

Well, when I searched for a some little combo up to 20W, there were a couple of variants:
20W and 40W Harley Banton Combo and a few others made by different companies.

But, when I found this little guy - ordered it at the same moment.
And that was a really good decision because it's really the best combo for apartments.

Pros:
1. Compact
2. Powerful - 15W, completely enough for apartment. Never played on more than 60% of loudness.
3. A lot of effects and, actually, they sound good.
4. Excellent distortion. If I could know that it is so good - I would not order distortion pedal.
5. Drum-machine.
6. Price

Cons:
1. It would be nice if in effects would be looper. At least 30 sec. It will be absolutely killer-combo, I swear.
2. It can't play from 9V battery.
3. This kid can't fly

If you order this little monster - you'll get a really powerful combo with really great functionality for a good price.
I can recommend this combo for everyone who need metal monster for apartments.

This little guy really packs a punch and is delightfully versatile. For what it is, it does its job perfectly and provides a lot of decent tones for a beginner player when they are just starting to discover their style. You can easily go from practicing some clean or crunchy stuff to outright extreme metal (which I personally prefer) and play around with built in effects without a need for dedicated pedals.

I also own the immensely hyped Blackstar Fly 3 and I have to be honest that while the latter may be one of the best near pocket sized amps, this HB outperforms the Fly in every other aspect. Which actually is surprising to me, because a friend of mine had a much older predecessor of this Harley Benton amp and boy did it sound terribly screechy with no low end. With this new version, you get full bodied pleasant tones (not speaking in recording terms, although I can't see a reason why one couldn't record a respectable demo with this amp). It goes to show that over the years, Harley Benton has come a long way in terms of sound and quality and the reviews here don't lie. Going in a little bit sceptic into this purchase, I'm now more than pleased.

Only con I can think of is that while there are a plethora of built-in beats to play to, it doesn't feature a simple click metronome which would be far more useful. Also the selection of the backing track and its tempo could be more intuitive. Then again, it does have an AUX input as well so you can easily practice to whatever audio file you want.

All in all, a highly recommended purchase for this price.

A small factor amplifier which gives lots of fun.
Its 15W are really loud for a room, but might be perfect for small gigs or big parties.
The emulated amplifiers feel... different, giving an impression of the intended sounds. Of course it doesn't sound like a lamp amplifier, but it also doesn't make you carry around a dosen of various pedals.
It perfectly does its job and lets you switch between sounds and music genres at a click! (actually at a switch)
You have all the sounds and effects you need to play any music.
Did i mention it is light and compact???
The rythm option provides you an extra band member, and the gig is on.
I still have to figure out the exact options for it, but it's quite intuitive in handling by pressing the buttons.
Overall it's a fantastic piece of equipment at a fraction of price compared to other "big/famous" names!!! And why would you pay more if you have this bargain?!?!
