Stagg 10W Guitar Amplifier

The Stagg 10W Guitar Amp is a straightforward little practice amp that gives a new player everything they actually need without adding a bunch of confusing extras. Its 10 watts and 6.5-inch speaker are plenty for bedroom practice, lessons, or playing along at home.

You get separate gain and volume controls, a three-band EQ with bass, parametric mid, and treble adjustments, plus an overdrive switch when you want to move beyond clean sounds. Plug headphones in for quiet practice, or connect a phone or music player through the auxiliary input and play along with your favorite songs.

At just 9.5 pounds, it is easy to carry to lessons, rehearsals, or a friend’s house. A solid first amp for a beginning guitarist.
