Fender Frontman 10G Guitar Amp, 10 Watts, with 2-Year Warranty, 6 Inch Fender Special Design Speaker, 5.75Dx10.25Wx11H Inches

What the other reviewers have said is true: the clean tones are pretty good, the distortion is not so good, the volume is more than enough for practice, and the tiny size makes it very portable and extremely user friendly. Also, as compared to my tube Fender Champion 600, it is much quieter, as one would expect from a solid state amp. Because the Champ drives me nuts with all of its odd hums, pops, and buzzes, and because I really don't want to lay out a couple of hundred bucks right now to experiment with a bunch of different tubes, I got this amp as a quieter practice amp that I might tinker with. So, soon after buying it, I replaced its speaker with the Italian-made Jensen Modern series 6" 4 ohm ("MOD 6-15") unit also available from amazon, which ironically is often bought to improve the sound of the Champion. Now the clean tone is very good, with a hint of the "chirp" or "crunch" I get from the Champion with sharp pick attacks, though without the overall tube warmth. The distortion is a little less disastrous if you keep the gain at 5 or below, but all I really care about is the clean tone. The new speaker produces more volume and clarity at a given setting so I can get a reasonably loud sound without turning up the Telecaster volume control past the point where the single coil hum kicks in. This modification took all of 5 minutes to do. So, with $59 in the amp and $29 in the speaker, I've got a tiny $88 amp with pretty darn good clean sound and minimal noise. Now I'm trying to figure out if I really want to keep the Champion, though I probably will given how special the tube sound is. Even if you don't do this easy modification, it's important to remember to adjust your pickup heights slowly and methodically to get the maximum clarity out of the amp. For those of you who might have gotten this amp as starter unit or as part of a beginner's package, consider the speaker change. It really does help. After the "transplant," with amp volume at 4.5, treble at 5, bass at 3.5 and my guitar volume control at about 2/3, this little amp doesn't sound tiny or "tinny" at all. It easily fills my living room with that classic Telecaster twang!

Bought this for my daughter and it sounds great. Plenty of volume for practicing, clean tone, and easy controls. The headphone output is a huge bonus. Plug in and it sounds even better, plus she can practice without shaking the walls. Solid Fender build, simple to use, and perfect for a beginner or bedroom setup. Exactly what we needed.

This small, lightweight amp is a great amp to set up to practice on. I don't think it's necessarily only for beginners to practice on. The amp delivers a nice, clean sound as promised. The knobs are easy to turn and feel high quality. No power cord needed, it comes connected. You only have treble, bass, gain, and volume to play with. Without the ability to change around mids, the overall sound you will be able to produce will be a bit less versatile. There is an overdrive setting, but no additional distortion or other effects. An effects pedal works nicely as an alternative to what is built in. I would not use this for more than practicing. I have not put the volume to the test, but I can't imagine it would compete with drums (as a drummer myself). The amp is your standard "small" size and very lightweight. I upgraded from a Gorilla 30 watt from the 80s, so I might be a bit happier with this than the next person.

I've had numerous amps over my 10+ years of toying around on guitar and electric bass. It's more than fair to say I have Gear Acquisition Syndrome (GAS), but I like to think I've toned down somewhat (pun fully intended). Among my arsenal in the "practice amp" section is a Blackstar HT-1R combo, a Yamaha THR-10, and my 5 watt Ampeg tube amp whose model name eludes me at the moment. So why this amp? Anyone whose spent time even researching amps can say the amps I listed are better than this little Frontman. The nitty gritty: I wanted a clean simple amp that isn't expensive, since it's in a place that could see it get damaged. Yep, that's it. Why not just play my Ampeg or HT-1R? The Ampeg is surprisingly loud for it's low-wattage stature, so I rarely get a chance to crank it up. My Blackstar WAS my bedroom practice amp (which is what this Fender is now), until a niece nearly spilled a drink on it. It's hiding downstairs in my studio, away from kids and liquids now. While I appreciate the THR-10's compact size, I only have floor space for amps, so I rarely get to hear the amp at ear level. Plus, although it has a convincing Fender-like clean, it's digital effects mean I spend more time toying with amp channels and effects than I do practicing. This amp is for practice, but that doesn't mean it sounds bad! I'm very partial to Fender's cleans, so that, along with the amp's low price and simplicity, gave me an excuse to fuel my syndrome. Since this amp is solid state, I can just plug in and turn it on. No waiting for tubes to warm up. It has a two band EQ and NO effects, so I spend more time PLAYING my guitar rather than fiddling with the amp. It can get plenty loud to offend folks in nearby rooms, but it's still a lot quieter than my Ampeg. Plus, I have access to Fender clean tones again!! No this amp isn't as nice as a '57 Champ (I used to have an Eric Clapton model), and it isn't as clean as a Twin (had a brief privileged chance to play one for a bit) but I like the fact this doesn't model anything. It's a Fender amp. Done. No frills. I exclusively use this amp on it's clean channel. The Overdrive channel..... I don't like it. It sounds WAY TOO compressed. There's no overtones, no nuances in the OD channel's tone that make it shine. I can't fault Fender for that too much though. They built this practice amp for a younger, less experienced audience. To my ears, it sounds bad, but my 10 year old niece thinks I sound like a rock god when I strum power chords while playing through the OD channel. Yep, I can hear someone: "Does it take pedals?" Yeah, any amp will. Some just do it better than others. Keep this amp on the clean channel and it LOVES pedals. I'm running my TC Electronics Hall of Fame reverb into it now, and am swapping out different OD and Distortion pedals to see which one I'll leave by the amp since I don't like it's built in overdrive. The reverb pedal sounds wonderful and on a spring setting, really gives the amp a more authentic Fender vibe (again, pun intended). So yeah, I didn't need another amp. But I'm happy my Blackstar is in a safer room, I'm happy I have an amp that produces Fender clean tones, I'm happy I didn't spend a lot of money. I'm happy it doesn't take up very much floor space, the household members are happy I won't blast the windows out of the house. Plus I'm spending my playing sessions actually playing my guitar instead of toying with effects. I bring that up a few times because I see other reviewers comparing this humble amp to it's fuller featured Champion brother amps. Yep, you'll get more bang for the buck by getting a Champion. But do you REALLY need all it's effects and channels? Really? I used to insist that I needed it all, and here I am, with several amps and I wouldn't mind having more to try and placate my endless search for tone. If you're serious about playing guitar, PLAY GUITAR. Don't worry about channels, effects, and such. You can learn to use them later on, but when you skimp on productive guitar practice, all the effects in the world can't save you from a critic that has sharp, trained ears.

This amp is every bit of worth it. I bought this in 2014 and it still works perfectly and sounds amazing.

I am a semi-newbie guitar player and I play my deep blue Fender Squire through this amp. I usually keep the volume at 3 but it can get really loud if needed. I will venture into the higher volume realms when I can pull off some decent playing in the garage and make my neighbors bang their heads on their fence to my rocking fingers. This little guy is easy to tote around and leave a very small footprint, yet delivers a nice sound and output for my solo practice sessions in the garage, back bedroom, or study. I was actually surprised by how small it is, but the sound and loudness were what I was looking for in a personal, solo practice amp. Though it is NOT loud enough when jammin' with a drummer. It has a rudimentary piece of Velcro on the back to keep the plug stored when transporting or storing. It is your typical grounded wall outlet plug. The amp box has metal corners in case of drops or bumps. NO amp to guitar cord included, so plan accordingly. The black and the blue versions are the same specs, you just pay more for the blue. It came the next day with PRIME, and was shipped in the factory Fender shipping box; it arrived undamaged. It is the best $70 amp out there. For a slightly cheaper competitor, in this 10w range, you may want to look into and consider the Donner amp. I would not go cheaper or lesser-known name on a guitar amp though.

Little amp with a big punch:) got for my daughter for Christmas and this amp packs some big power! Great product for any level guitarist!

As someone who’s owned vintage amps including a 60’s cream Fender Twin, I’m very pleased with this little amp. Good overall sound and the volume for its size very impressive. I know there have been some complaints that overdrive a bit crackly. Speaking for myself, I’ve been around the block regarding amp and pedal overdrives and very familiar with how to tweak a good sound so I have no problem with it. All in all I’m so pleased with this little amp I originally bought just to do some practicing at home I now plan on using it for my acoustic/electric duo playing small venues.

It was good while it lasted, not many settings obviously but it was still good. Although i accidently ruined mine by plugging it wrong and the wire exploded 😭

I have a semi acoustic guitar that is kadence Acoustica A06 Model. I tried it with its inbuilt tuner on but the clean channel was not working and O.D. was sounding Clean until I turned my guitar tuner off and the amp sounded like crazy, just a recommendation that if you're using semi acoustic guitar, make sure to check your guitar tuner is off or on and check on both of it.

The Fender Frontman 10G is perfect for beginners. The 10-watt output and 6-inch Fender speaker give clear, crisp sound for practice and small jam sessions. It’s compact, easy to use, and the 2-year warranty is a nice bonus. Overall, a reliable little amp that’s ideal for learning and home practice.

Tiene gran potencia. Lo utilizo con mi guitarra electro-acústica y es fantástico. Suficiente voltaje . Sólo uso en casa, pero en el jardín se oye espectacular. Lo recomiendo, nunca lo pongo a máximo volumen ya que tienen gran sonido. Pequeño y manejable. Gran compra

自宅の練習用にピッタリです。
