Joyo MA-10A

I was hoping for better sound.
Maybe a faulty speaker, or loose screws inside.
Nicely finished with comprehensive controlls, plenty loud enough for a small placky box.
An hour trying different guitars and settings, but the mushy sound is not good for acoustic guitar.
Re: a week later the replacement MA 10 a arrived. I sat down again with the 3 same guitars and 2 different hook up guitar/amp wires, plugged in, switched on.
The sound of this replacement (a new ma 10 a) is far sweeter, a little more chimney than my first ma 10a & takes almost full volume & almost full gain before the dreaded 'mushy sound' syndrome begins.
Exactly what I was wanting, a nice clean sound at 3/4 gain & 3/4 volume.
A perfect stage monitor on a separate mic stand with a line in 6.3m jack, doubling as a rehearsal guitar amp.
Joyo is pretty good music gear, with a 3 year warranty, what more is needed.

I saw this recommended in some buskers' groups, and I wanted to try it because it s lightweight and cheap. While of course it cannot compare to "good" amplifiers, I was really impressed by how good it sounds. There are some controls for the sound, gain etc, and they work, I was particularly impressed by its lack of feedback, like, my Roland has more feedback than this one, ZERO feedback. It s not very loud but for a single instrument it s quite ok, I tried it with a loop with voice and guitar and if you are in a quiet place it does provide some amplification. +1 because of the look, it looks like a toy from the 1970s/80s but it feels very sturdy (no but, those toys were made to last forever). Definitely an eye catcher.
