Donner Mini Electric Guitar Amp Digital, Wireless Small Electric Guitar Amplifier 5W, Cyclops Portable Practice Amp with 7 Models 3 Types Effects and Drum Machine

This is a great little amp! The sound is really good and it sounds much bigger than it's diminutive size. My only complaint is a lack of tap tempo for the delay

The Donner Cyclops 5W Mini Electric Guitar Amplifier is a fantastic choice for guitarists looking for a portable, feature-packed practice amp. Despite its small size, it delivers surprisingly versatile tones with 7 preset amp modes, allowing players to explore everything from clean blues to heavy distortion. The gain and volume controls offer decent flexibility, making it great for different playing styles.One standout feature is the built-in drum machine with 40 drum patterns, which adds an interactive and rhythmic element to practice sessions. The three built-in effects (likely delay, chorus, and reverb) further enhance sound customization. Additionally, the Bluetooth audio function makes it easy to play along with backing tracks or stream music.Powering options are convenient—DC 9V, 6x AA batteries, or USB 5V, making it truly portable for home, travel, or outdoor jam sessions. While it’s not built for gigging, the sound quality and features are excellent for personal practice. For the price, this amp is a solid buy for beginners and experienced players alike. 🎸🔊🔥

Overall, pretty good. I haven't tried the battery feature yet but it's a good addition. Bluetooth recording works well. Add more functions.

This little gem is a dream come true. It's versatility blew my expectations away. Take it from an old timer who has been addicted to playing guitar for over 60 years. Need a practice amp? This is the one!

What a great little amp!

I absolutely love this amp. If this amp is indicative of the quality they put out, then Donner is an underrated brand. I had tried the Orange Crush mini and hated the sound and lack of functions. I returned that and for about $20 more got the Donner. I love the different amp models with the PV51 being my favorite as I'm mostly using the amp with distortion. The amp has volume, tone and gain which allows me to tweak my sounds and dial in a sound that I like. The clean sounds are also good. The drum machine sound could be better but it's just a little something to play along with. I don't really bother with it because I simply pair it with my phone using the Bluetooth option and I play along with my favorite songs or backing tracks. The tuner is also a useful option. The unit seems to be sturdy and well made and I love the look of it. At this time, I can't think of any negatives and at the price point, this is a great deal. For playing in my room, this is perfect. I haven't used it for recording but I believe you could plug into your work station and get a pretty good sound using it as an interface. Great sound quality and very portable. I'm using it plugged in but with the option to use batteries, you can't go wrong. For my purposes, it's an amazing little amp.

I bought one in June, it arrived non-functional. I returned it for a replacement, which worked for about a week. Then the amp selector started malfunctioning, only working on 3 amp models. Amazon does not give an option for a second replacement, only a refund. I emailed Donner twice and have received no response. Return deadline is in 4 days. I really liked it when it worked.When it worked:The amp sims are fair, the 5150, mesa boogie and fender amps sound pretty good. The effects sound pretty good. It would be cool if it had presets. The drums sound alright but the controls are awkward. Overall it's worth the money. I can still return it and just order a 3rd one but I would like Donner to know they have a good product that is worth buying if they can work out quality control issues. Please respond!

I’m going to be honest, I didn’t have high expectations for this. Surprisingly enough, this thing is very warm and full sounding. I’ve tried a bunch of the other mini amps on the market and this one absolutely blows the rest out of the water in terms of sound quality. It simply just doesn’t sound like a mini amp. It almost sounds like it could be like a 5watt tube amp. The construction seams solid for what it is (hard plastic) The drum machine is really nice to have. You don’t see drum machines on any other amp in this price range that I know of. It includes a good variety of beats and the bpm is fully adjustable on the fly. The drum sounds themself as you’d expect aren’t going to sound exactly like real drums but it’s just meant for practice anyway so who cares.Now the effects are really the icing on the cake here.The chorus sounds unique because it almost sounds like a doubling effect in a way more then a chorus. The tremolo is cool and works nicely. The delay types are very pretty sounding. The reverb could be super ambient or it could be subtle if you want but overall sounds really good. The different amp types don’t take long to dial in a good tone. The distortion amps sound REALLY good as long as you don’t have the gain cranked ALL the way.Finally, the Bluetooth connectivity really just makes this thing unbeatable. You can literally play along with your favorite songs or noodle random things over them and it sits so nicely in the mix.I’d definitely recommend this. I don’t normally write reviews for things but I had to go out of my way to make this one. I’ll eventually make a YouTube video demonstrating this since there aren’t any.
