Today I got my first Amp! A Honeytone micro amp. Yeah, I know it's wimpy, but it has surprising volume and was inexpensive, which is a most endearing attribute to a poor retiree.
Most of my Ukes have built in Eq/Preamps but I've seldom played amped until now. I tried it using a contact microphone with my sopranino and was amazed at how it really picked up the sound of this littlest uke. I can't wait to try my acoustic Concert and Tenors with it.
The only problem I see with the Honeytone is it is so light weight that a standard 10 ft. cable tips it over!
I'm looking forward to playing with the knobs to see how many sounds I can get out of my ukes without having to beat the strings.
