It gives players both a standalone portable guitar amplifier plus an interface that lets them plug their guitar into an iPhone or iPad and use AmpliTube for iOS to access a wide range of guitar tones on the go. The amp is super-compact, battery-powered, self-contained micro amp that can used by itself, with headphones or even an external speaker cabinet. The firm claims it could even drive up to a 4×12″ guitar cab. It features the iRig circuitry so that guitarists can plug their iPhone or iPad into it with the included TRRS cable and tap into the library of AmpliTube guitar tones and more.
