Sorted, thanks for your help. Hotel practicing

[mildmanofrock]

Hi folks, apologies if this has been asked/discussed before.

I'm going to Italy on Wednesday and would like to practice tracks in the hotel room. I have Mp3 files of the tracks - for iPod/CD. Can anyone recommend a really titchy amp/practicing/play along solution?

Thank you!

Steve

Bought myself a tiny orange practice amp for about £30 plus a separate charger which works ok. Now bought ampkit app and looking to get an ashdown mibass interface when I can.

Hi, You could try the Vox am Plug Bass headphone amp with headphones - not at all bad. ONly little more than £30.

Or the Tascam GTR1. I used to use (and still have) a MP-BT1 and used it regularly until I got the GTR-1.

GTR1 has basic rhythms in it as well, and can record etc, but if you don't want those then MP-BT1 is great (and cheaper).

Thanks for those! All these choices are new to me, I'll check them out - much appreciated.

Thanks Myke. I'm guessing you can plug an mp3 player into these too, and play along?
