Harley Benton Rockplug Classic Rock

I loved this thing! Great sound! Too bad I stepped on it barefoot and the jack input (with phone jack inside) broke. I tried to open for repair but too much little plastics.
Later I acquired a Vox Classic Rock and tho I find the tone very good the HB Rockplug doesn't fall behind. The HB doesn't "color" the sound as the other (Vox sounds like a "through cabinet" with bass). It's a different type of OD of the Vox and the gain to the max sounds like distortion (ex. Nirvana).
You can use it with bass but it's not that good (the Vox sounds good on bass and has lot's of volume and boost - clean and OD).
But the biggest plus is the price and the rechargeable battery! It lasts for ages! I could play for days and days without recharging and then no need to buy batteries - and yes buying batteries is a major issue. Some folkes might say "and what if battery dies?" well my phone is 3years and every 2 days I charge it and it still goes on. Imagine 2 batteries per week minimum after 1 year the amount of money you'll spend! You can buy three or more HB Rockplug!
I'll be buying another next order for sure.

I ordered this practice amp because i got fed up with pulling out my normal amp, connecting everything and after that be finally ready to play.
This is way more convenient. Plug it in your guitar, plug in your headphones and go.

The unit itself feels sturdy and has some nice weight to it. However, there's not really a proper way to hold it and pull it out of your guitar without having the idea you break it. So 5 stars for quality (4,5 actually, but that isn't an option).

In terms of handling, it fits good on both my Squier Strat and my Epiphone SG. Not in the way of any controls or whatever. The controls work well, although it would be nice if they were visible while playing. The biggest 'downside' for me is the powerswitch, it's quite difficult to use if you don't have long nails. Again, 4,5 stars.

The features are amazing for the price. Rechargeable battery, overdrive and tone, and an aux in. Can't beat that. 5 stars.

The soundquality is good for this price. The overdrive works well, produces a nice crunchy sound (dependent on the pickups you use of course).
The downside on sound is that your headphones matter. I first used cheaps earbuds from Sennheiser, but that was all hissing and crackling. However, using my Sennheiser HD599 gave a beautiful sound.

All in all highly recommended. Very good item for a cheap present for any guitarist.

When I can, I use it every day with a Steinberger Spirit Pro.
I can start shredding on high or low gain within a minute.

Other reviewers have complained about the fact that the buttons are facing down while you play. To me, within a week, you'll remember what each one does (so you do not need to see them).

The battery will last for HOURS and HOURS. That is just a massive perk to not be interrupted while practising.

Thomann provides a small cable to plug in a sound source, but I highly recommend getting a longer and high-quality cable, with a small ring on the base of the plug, which is very useful to lock the cable in place. With that, I plug my phone in for a metronome, put my phone in my pocket and just walk around the kitchen practising.

You're really not taking a lot of risks by investing such a small amount. You might not like the sound, but personally, I'm not fussy. I used a Line6 Pod for years (and even have a Boss Waza Air) and I genuinely prefer the sound of the Rockplug. It has a better response, probably due to its simplistic design. There is no digital sound layer that just hinders the character of your instrument. I can't recommend it enough.
