For the guitarist on the move who needs a bigger sound from their instrument, meet the Roland Mobile AC. This tiny amp packs a wallop, meaning you don’t have to sacrifice power and clarity while on the road.

 

The five-watt amp is battery-powered, playing up to 15 hours on six AA batteries, but also offers an optional AC charger. But it’s the sound which is most impressive. Roland, no slouch when it comes to amps, has concentrated all their famous technology into an amp that would fit comfortably in a shoebox

 

In addition to an input for guitar, the amp has an input for a mic and a portable media player, each with their independent volume controls. With chorus, reverb and wide effects, the amp is surprisingly versatile.

 

Roland recommends that the amp can be used for a variety of purposes. At home, you can play along to your favorite songs. On the street you can boost your sound or play along to backing tracks. Roland even suggests the amp can be used in small clubs and on mid-sized stages. All of these options make the Mobile AC an incredibly useful tool.

 

This is the perfect amp for the traveler or for jam sessions; at $129, it is affordable for everyone. And it pairs like cookies and milk with the Snapdragon SnapaXe. Learn more at roland.com.
