He comprado dos unidades de este ampli, y las 2 de la nada dejaron de funcionar!, una lo hizo a las dos semanas, la otra a los 7 meses. Mientras funcionan están muy bien hace se hacen falta un Bluetooth. Existen otras marcas chinas que dan mejores prestaciones son más baratas y no se descomponen tan rápido

This tiny amp is designed to be used with the Mooer GTRS guitar. I don't have one of those. But I have what might be the next best thing... the Mooer Prime P1 effects interface. As I understand it, the Prime P1 is the same processing "guts" as the GTRS guitar.For comparison, I've recently reviewed a few other small practice amps that are similar in size... although all of them are actually bigger than this one.- Donner Cyclops 5W modeling amp- OBB Dual-Powered Bluetooth Guitar Amp with 10W Speaker- Coolmusic 15 Watt Portable Bluetooth Amp... but the little MOOER GTRS PRNR GCA5 actually sounds bigger and fuller than any of the other amps.I was VERY pleasantly surprised at how well balanced the sound is.When I reviewed the Cool music amp a couple of weeks ago I was also impressed with the sound... at first. But then I compared it to a "real" amp with 4x12 speaker cab, and found it woefully lacking in comparison.The Cyclops has a bit better rounded sound. But it is still a bit small and hollow sounding. The OBB is similarly hollow sounding. Understanding the state of the market for small, battery powered practice amps makes it that much more remarkable how full the sound from this tiny little Mooer amp is.That isn't to say that this tiny amp compares to a real amp running through a 4x12 cab. Rather, this tiny little battery powered amp punches well above it's weight class.It still has limited volume and frequency range. But it sounds really good for its size.What excites me the most is the setup in the first picture...A few weeks ago I was on the road for a 3 day road trip and took a headless electric guitar with me. On a few occasions I had an hour or two to kill and sat in the back of my car playing the guitar through the Prime P1 and a set of wired earbuds. This worked, but paying through earbuds gets old after 15 minutes or so. Earbuds just aren't that comfortable. I didn't take any of the other battery powered amps listed above, as none of them sound quite good enough. When this little amp arrived I immediately tested it with the Prime P1 and I think this will be a very viable tiny travel setup that will let me play in my car, in a hotel room, even in my office.This little amp is very basic. It has no effects at all. Not even basic distortion. There are only 3 things on it:- 1/4" input jack- USB-C to charge the internal battery- an on/off, volume knob

I have changed by review... It was 3 stars, and I've changed to 5 now that I understand what this is for.This is to be paired with the MOOER’s GTRS Guitar, which has built in tones and effects. WIthout that, you need to bring your own effects. It could work well with PC based plug in effects, for example, like Guitar Rig.It actually says that in the listing, but I don't remember that being there when I selected this unit for review (maybe it was, or maybe it was added later).In any case, the MOOER GTRS Guitar is about $700 and seems to be very similar to the Line6 Variax, but with everything built in. I'm guessing though, I don't have one and that is a lot to spend on a guitar that goes with an amp like this. Hopefully they have a stage size version as well.----- Below is the original (a bit harsh) Review.I love Mooer products. They are crazy cheap and usually surprising quality. They are forcing the industry to up their game.This is also a nice quality product, but I don't know what it's for. It seems like it has a nice long battery life, but by itself it doesn't sound very good. I have a Mooer amp that cost less than $100 that has a tuner, effects, full sound banks to choose from, and then there is this.I get the portable sound idea. I used to have "The Can" way back in the day and could play guitar through my battery powered amps on long trips. You could play along with the radio in a car with this one too, but unless you have a pedal board, it's going to sound pretty crappy.I guess that's my issue - it's just raw clean but not even with any clean drive sort of tone. It's just bare and though I have some great guitars, they don't sound right - even the acoustic guitars don't really sound that great through this.I mean, for a bit more you can get the Spark mini, and have a mindblowing little amp. I've got the Tiny Terror and a Terror 5 watt amp, and I can easily run either off a car inverter and get juicy dripping tone.So if you have to pair it with something else - like an effects box or a pedalboard, then the idea of portability doesn't really work. I could carry this in my jacket pocket , but where do I carry my pedalboard?I was thinking it could be a nice bedroom amp to hook up at the end of your pedal board when you are not playing super loud, but then why the battery part?I was going to give it 2 stars, but it does get loud and it does play for a long time on battery power, so yeah. It's a well made product - as I have come to expect from Mooer. It's just that I can always think of something better to play through so I don't think I will use this ever, sadly.

Out of the box, embedded battery was completely drained but an hour or so charging changed the Red ring led green.Just one knob! Super simple.Retro amp aesthetic. Shiny black will show scuffs and fingerprints.. I’d probably choose a different color to be honest.HEFTY. This is a chunky feeling speaker for the size. It’s about the height of a Wonderboom, not quite as deep but 50% wider.Broadcasts itself via Bluetooth, quick to pair.Volume is enough to fill a room but doesn’t get painfully loud, so this could be a good choice for younger listeners or for apartments / shared spaces where you KNOW you don’t need something louder.Audio quality, for music listening, is acceptable.Initial impression was that it sounded a little boxy, with a thumpy low end (kick drums surprisingly well defined!) and a lot of presence / top end. In isolation, it’s ok. Some tracks I’m familiar with sounded a little more shrill than usual and I did turn the speaker down slightly since it was emphasizing certain frequencies too aggressively.Comparing to 2 other mini speakers I own, it became apparent there’s something missing in the mids, as the other speakers sounded “richer” in comparison.Now, the main feature on this thing is the guitar input on the top. So how does a guitar sound through this?Pretty good! It’s clean. There’s no dirt or overdrive to be had, just sparkly clean. It seems to sound better / sweeter with neck pickups, bridge can be a little harsh and honky but for a little practice amp it’s ok.For overdrive, distortion and effects, you’ll need something to go in between your guitar and the GTRS PRNR.I tested it out with the Mooer Prime P1, which has some really solid amp models, effects and IRs, and the speaker came to life. Lots of fun, from clean ambient to crushing metal, the little speaker handles it all well.So my feelings on this are mixed..On the one hand, it’s not the best sounding Bluetooth speaker for music.. in terms of overall sound quality and volume, there are better options. Some cheaper.On the other hand, you can plug your guitar (and effects!) into it and jam along with music you stream via Bluetooth. It’s a cool setup and, especially with a decent little wireless system, it’s a compact setup.But if you cost up the GTRS PRNR, plus an amp modeler / effects, I kinda think Mooer’s own Prime P1 is a better option. It costs more but as a practice (and recording) tool, it’s excellent and pretty affordable, and you just plug it into any speaker.So for me the GTRS PRNR is maybe a 3.5 star product that I’ll round up to 4. Excellent build but I wish it sounded better.

This little amp is really cute and easy to use. It has a lot going for it. It's very sturdy, it charges quickly, and the charge lasts about 7 hours.Simple to use, the unit has the input and the charging port on the top, and the combination power/volume knob on the front. The retro radio look is streamline and classy. The ring around the knob lights up green when it's on, and red when it's charging (the light will go off when it's fully charged - it doesn't take long.)It also has Bluetooth and is easily connected by pairing it with your phone, computer, or tablet.It really only has two tiny drawbacks - or only one if you're a parent buying it for your child. ;-)1. The volume doesn't go very high. (It needs to go to 11!). It really is just a practice amp or speaker for your room, not loud enough for a busy area.2. $40-$50 would be a more accurate price given the unit's capabilities in comparison to similarly-priced units that offer a lot more in the way of options, but bear in mind I'm kind of a cheapskate. ;-)Overall, I really like this little amp. It's cool, it sounds good even if it isn't super loud, it's sturdy, and it's super-portable. And did I mention it's cute? :-)EDIT: I bumped this up to five stars because the more I use it, the more I like it! It really is a breeze to use, and it's so light and portable, you can literally take it anywhere, plug in, and practice/play. I still think it needs to go to 11, but the price point doesn't seem so bad. Totally worth it!In fact, I will be purchasing one as a Christmas gift for a friend, who LOVES mine and will be so jazzed to get his own!
