"Amp in a can" Amps in europe?
« on: January 18, 2009, 12:55:02 AM »
Dont know if you guys know about these and the like http://www.cactustubeamps.com/BUY%20HERE%20PAGE.htm
Have seen some different sorts, cigarette box amps and whatnot. Im kinda interested in getting one of these cheap ones just to have something i can really crank! (can barely have the volume set to 1 on my Tiny Terror combo at 7 watt since i live in an apartment  :shock:) So anyone know where i can get something like this in sweden, or any other real small low wattage amps in europe since its a bit messy and costy to order from the US usually.

i have a vince ray limited edition smokey amp... just the same as they put in cigarette boxes but a lot prettier (although having not smoked much in the past few weeks fag packs do have their own charm)... sounds fairly harsh on its own - plug it into my 2x12 and its reallly a lot nicer than it should be for £30.  i am just always amazed at the sound i can get from one 9 volt battery

so if you have a cab i would go for a smokey

edit... and they work fairly well in front of an amp as well so would push the TT into extra gain
