Comparing it to my older Joyo English Channel headphone amp it's actually slightly larger, but these amps are still absolutely pocket-sized and the Valeton has many more features. It's powered by a rechargeable battery and the box includes a short USB cable in case you haven't got one. I've had several devices with a Micro USB socket before, so you too may well already possess a longer one. Switching it on I was immediately pleased to see it was supplied fully charged. Next I was also pleased to find the knobs have markers to show their settings and have the translucent, slightly squishy rings around them which are a distinctive feature of Sonicake & Valeton products and which I really like the feel of. More practical than the Joyo's "buried" controls which have no markers. The knobs are well laid out, with first the basic Level and Tone, then the three effects, each with their corresponding mode switch under them. Now for the sound test! Clean channel: Gain vs. Level doesn't make a lot of difference - I assume this is because there's no distortion circuit on this channel. However at high levels of the Level control, or with the Gain turned up full and medium Level, you can get some crunch which is quite reasonable for a tiny transistor amp. This is impressive because the crunch of an overdriven Clean channel is often missed out of the list with small amps. The Tone control is very well calibrated for Clean, from not too muffled to not too crisp! Only a tiny amount of hum and fizz, almost inaudible. Overdrive channel: A pretty usable roar, again the Tone control gives some usable adjustment. The Gain knob functions more as a sag control than changing the amount of distortion. Hiss and fizz appear when you're not playing but are no worse than the average "real" amp. Distortion channel: Heavy modern fuzz with sustain and a distinct octave overtone. Good for practicing sustain lead but rather spitty suggesting the amp is hitting a hard limit - it may be set up slightly too distorted. As with the Overdrive channel, Gain and Level produce a very similar effect, just emphasising a slightly different range of mid frequencies. Definite hum in the background, like a real high-gain amp (in fact I'd say not as bad) but only audible when not playing. Delay: clean but with a substantial hi-cut, which is sensible since there's no Depth or Feedback controls - the knob controls Time, which goes all the way down to 0 so you can dial up your favourite slapback delay, and up to about 2/3 second. Well chosen values again! Reverb: hard to be sure but sounds like the knob controls the length of the tail (again starting from zero), which seems to start quiet and build to a peak, then at the longest setting there's a smoothed repeat. Someone's really put some thought into these single-knob effects! I'd characterise it as Small Hall. Delay+Reverb: the Delay repeats sound modulated by the Reverb, suggesting that the Reverb is applied first. Quite a cool special effect at the maximum setting where it makes the repeats sound like an organ rather than your guitar. Chorus: starts from zero, seems to begin by blending the chorused signal into the clean, and then increases the sweep speed - just from slow to medium, no silly wobbles at maximum. Tremolo: similarly to Chorus it seems to start by blending in, then increases speed (and depth too, it sounds like). Another usable range! Flanger: blends in, then definitely increases depth as well as speed - this one's lower range is nicely Electric Mistress-y, the higher range is a bit wild. Combining effects reveals some quite Gothic possibilities! All in all, a great improvement on the headphone guitar amps of only a couple of years ago - much more versatile, more pleasant sounding, lower noise and incredible value for money. And the USB charging means it's more practical for a long train journey than my old one's AAA batteries. Review: Vox amplug killer - Use to have a vox amplug metal 2 which suddenly died a few days ago so I was looking for a replacement an came across this one. So my review will also be a kind of comparison between the two. Packaging and build quality: The packaging is simple yet more than adequate with a nice and easy to understand manual and all the features pictured on the box. A usb cable is included which is definitely a pro. The quality of plastic is rather good for such a product at any price range and especially on this one. The knobs are very responsive and the rubber coating that all valetons have is a nice touch. Features and sounds: This is definitely the best equipped guitar headphones amp on the market as far as I can tell. Has 3 channels (clean, od which is more like crunch and distortion which honestly is plenty) plus 2 effect groups,modulation(chorus, tremolo and flanger which is more like phaser) and reverb/ delay( has 3 settings, reverb, delay and the two combined). As far as the channel goes, you have gain and tone, which are both surprisingly responsive and a volume which controls the overall output. Let me note here that it has plenty of output to drive decent cans like my akg240, quite a bit louder and clearer than the amplug. There is also an ambient and a mod control controlling the level of the space and mod effects respectively, which although set are all quite pleasant and usable. Additionally there is a mini jack line in so that you can connect your phone and jam along ,while my favourite feature is the built in battery, which lasts around 10 hours depending on the output level and can be recharged through a phone charger or even a powerbank. Conclussion: For the price you get way more than what you pay for. The only negative could be the slightly less bulk but had no problem connecting it to any of my guitars( the vox had issues with some of my strats and my flying v) and its still featherweight, so overally a pure 10 out of 10 for me since it does what it claims and a bit more . ## Features - AMP Module with Clean, Overdrive and Distortion Amp Models based on World-Class Bass Amplifiers with Cab Sim for Headphones or Line-Out into Full Range Freq Response System - Switchable MOD Module with Chorus (FLOW), Tremolo (TREM) and Flanger (DEEP) Effects for different Tone Demands - Switchable AMBIENT Module with Reverb and Echo Effects for adding Ambience to the Tone - Aux Input for Jamming along with any Audio Player - Bass headphone amplifier onboard USB Charger let you Play anytime anywhere for Up to 5 Hours ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09J4LFLDV | | Amplifier Type | Digital Modeling | | Best Sellers Rank | 15 in Headphone Amplifiers | | Box Contents | RH-101, USB cable | | Brand | VALETON | | Brand Name | VALETON | | Colour | Black | | Compatible Devices | Bass Guitar | | Compatible devices | Bass Guitar | | Connector Type | USB | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 4,574 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Ton | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 12D x 9.4W x 3.9H centimetres | | Item Weight | 118 g | | Manufacturer | VALETON | | Manufacturer Part Number | RH-100 | | Material | Ton | | Model Name | Rushead Max | | Model Number | RH-101 | | Number of Bands | 2 | | Output Channel Quantity | 2 | | Output Wattage | 0.5 Watts | | Output wattage | 0.5 Watts | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Product Warranty | 2 year manufactor | | Product dimensions | 12D x 9.4W x 3.9H centimetres | | Speaker Size | 5.8 Centimetres | | UPC | 888506830228 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** VALETON - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Bass Guitar - **Material:** Ton - **Output wattage:** 0.5 Watts ## Images ![Valeton Guitar Headphone Amplifier Rushead Max Bass Multi Effects USB Chargable Pocket Carry-On Bedroom Plug-In Mini Practice Combo Amps - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51WXIqG3f+L.jpg) ![Valeton Guitar Headphone Amplifier Rushead Max Bass Multi Effects USB Chargable Pocket Carry-On Bedroom Plug-In Mini Practice Combo Amps - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61nEvQKWdcL.jpg) ![Valeton Guitar Headphone Amplifier Rushead Max Bass Multi Effects USB Chargable Pocket Carry-On Bedroom Plug-In Mini Practice Combo Amps - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616BNu2cXYL.jpg) ![Valeton Guitar Headphone Amplifier Rushead Max Bass Multi Effects USB Chargable Pocket Carry-On Bedroom Plug-In Mini Practice Combo Amps - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61421cKnlAL.jpg) ![Valeton Guitar Headphone Amplifier Rushead Max Bass Multi Effects USB Chargable Pocket Carry-On Bedroom Plug-In Mini Practice Combo Amps - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/611NBD-tMFL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I play guitar and bass. Will this do for both? I don’t really want to buy separate units as I’m a casual player.** A: I used it on my bass and it does work but the sound quality is worse than guitar - and when I plugged my guitar back in it also sounded different, a lot fuzzier and a bit muffled, but not unusable and I think it still sounds fine now, but I'd be careful with playing a lot of bass on it **Q: Do i need to buy a special charger for this amp?** A: A mini usb phone charger will do ... Not the newer c-type cable . **Q: I want to use my laptop speakers as output for the audio instead of headphones... how do I do this?** A: Just plug them into the headphone jack on the amp **Q: Has anyone tried this with a bass? If so, is it any good?** A: I use it on my base for practice works ok for my needs ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible value for money *by S***S on 14 June 2020* First impression: this thing is SMALL!

The chorus, flanger and trem are useless in my opinion as the lowest setting is still too aggressive, at least for what i play. It might be useful to you if you play different styles, but its no good for me. The distortion channel has very low output volume vs clean and OD so is of limited usefulness. Mine could be faulty, but i wont know unless i buy another (i might!) The reverb works well, the OD is fine too. Overall the sound is quite bright, so you may need to dial in your tone a bit. I also found that high output pickups tend to sound really crappy unless you turn down the volume on the guitar. Then it all works just fine. This issue might explain some of the reviews calling out poor sound quality. If the output from the pickups is too high it just blasts the poor thing and it cant cope. On my headphones there is some hiss at high gain/volume but its starting to blow my head off at that point anyway. Plugged into a PA at an open mic the hiss did not seem to be an issue though. The aux in works well, battery life is good... Generally its very good, not perfect to be sure and i have no doubt the fender version is better. But for the Β£22 i paid i really cannot complain too much. As i said, i might buy another so i have one in my open mic gig bag and one on my desk. That way i wont have to remember it when i head out! ## Frequently Bought Together - Valeton Rushead Max Bass USB Chargable Portable Pocket Bass Headphone Amp Carry-On Bedroom Plug-In Multi-Effects - OneOdio Wired Over Ear Headphones Hi-Res Studio Monitor & Mixing DJ Stereo Headsets with 50mm Drivers and 1/4 to 3.5mm Jack for AMP Computer Recording Podcast Keyboard Guitar Laptop - Black - OneOdio A70 Bluetooth Over Ear Headphones, Wireless Headphones w/ 72H Playtime, Hi-Res, 3.5mm/6.35mm Wired Audio Jack for Studio Monitor & Mixing DJ Guitar AMP, Computer Laptop PC Tablet - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/385410981-valeton-guitar-headphone-amplifier-rushead-max-bass-multi-effects-usb](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/385410981-valeton-guitar-headphone-amplifier-rushead-max-bass-multi-effects-usb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
